The Mitzvah of accumulating wealth

PARSHAS HASHAVUA
כי יקח איש אשה חדשה לא יצא בצבא
DEVARIM 24:5
The Mitzvah of
accumulating wealth

There is a מחלוקת ראשונים if the איסור of leaving the wife during the first year after marriage is applicable only when leaving her to join the army or even for other reasons one may not leave her alone for the first year.

The שׁו"ת חתם סופר (EH 2 155) writes that even according to the חינוך who holds that one may not leave his wife even for other reasons than joining the army will admit that if he leaves her for a Mitzvah then he may do so.

Therefore one may leave his wife behind even the first year after marriage to go out and earn a living being it's a Mitzvah.

The Chasam Sofer Concludes
The חתם סופר concludes that בזמן הזה not only
earning a living is a Mitzvah but
accumulating wealth is also a Mitzvah
as mentioned in Shulchan Aruch (Rema O.Ch.248:4)
יהי רצון that we should all be זוכה to be מקיים this Mitzvah among all other
Mitzvos with all the הידורים and amass lots & lots of wealth אכיה"ר

תהילים - טירחא דציבורא

Not to waste the Tzibur's time
by adding a Kapitel Tehillim

The Gaon's Minhag was not to add לדוד ה' אורי from R. Chodesh Ellul till Simchas Torah Davening.

The אדרת* writes the reason for not saying it was because of טירחא דציבורא.

Saying one extra Kapitel Tehillim takes
up too much time of the Tzibbur.

Perhaps we can explain the Aderes /Gaon,

There is no mention in בבלי, ירושלמי, ראשונים, טור, שו"ע, כתבי אריז"ל etc. to say לדוד ה' אורי (in Ellul)

The first to mention to say it בציבור** is the Sefer חמדת הימים*** & the Sefer שם טוב קטן which are ספרי קבלה****.

The Gaon, in general, was against adding additional Tefillos & Pesukim. He tried to stick to the original Tefillos of the Anshei Knesses Hagedola.

ONE MINUTE × 100 PEOPLE
A שליח ציבור who starts one minute late in a Minyan of 100 people, wasted not one minute but 100 minutes. (טירחא of 100 people times 1 minute)
Adding a קפיטל תהילים which takes
to say only one minute can at times
be considered taking 100 minutes.

This might explain why the Gaon considered it טירחא דציבורא and didn't add it to the Tefilos during Ellul etc.

א' אלול

most Shuls will be saying 3 קפיטלך תהילים at end of Davening.

1) שיר של יום
2) לדוד ה' אורי
3) ברכי נפשי

According to the Gaon, we don't say the regular שיר של יום since the לויים didn't say it on Rosh Chodesh & Yom Tov. All you would say is ברכי נפשי which was the שיר של יום of Rosh Chodesh.

* הרב אליהו דוד רבינוביץ תאומים
(he was a twin)

** The Sefer Shem Tov Katan printed before the Chemdas Hayomim mentions only to say it ביחיד.

*** major controversy who the author was. Some don't say Ledovid Hashem Ori (Ellul) claiming the source is נתן העזתי ימ"ש

**** I believe the first Halacha Sefer to say it is the מטה אפרים
