@mikeage actually don't know I'm afraid. 1:37 PM Oct 8th, 2011 via Mobile Web in reply to mikeage
Miss you too @mikeage - come over for a few beers on Succot. But times like what? What happened? 1:24 PM Oct 8th, 2011 via Mobile Web in reply to mikeage
@noahroth Also, he only heard the threat from his mother and he couldn't kill on the basis of her word alone. 12:11 PM Nov 21st, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to noahroth
@noahroth It wasn't an immediate threat - Esav said he was going to kill Yaakov only after their father died. Not a case of haba lehorgecha 12:09 PM Nov 21st, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to noahroth
@noahroth Does this rule create an imperative to kill his would-be killer? If he can get away, isn't that better? 12:07 PM Nov 21st, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to noahroth
@DovBear I can...but don't much. 12:28 PM Nov 10th, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to DovBear
@gldmeier יפה שתיקה לחכמים קל וחומר לטפשים ;) 4:15 AM Nov 5th, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to gldmeier
thanks @mikeage how are you? you know we have a great night program 3 X a week at KSY - gemara, tur, shulchan aruch, right now on Chanuka. 3:39 AM Nov 5th, 2009 via TweetDeck
@gldmeier @MarkSoFla Hey, thanks for asking! I still pop in frequently to see what you're up to...still up for a BS/RBS tweetup. 3:24 AM Nov 5th, 2009 via TweetDeck

That's very cool, thanks for pointing it out, @joshman1125 3:29 PM Oct 17th, 2009 via TweetDeck
@mikeage @gldmeier I don't recall all bidders paying. 4:47 AM Oct 9th, 2009 via TweetDeck
Could be right @rgoldstand although pretty sure not all Sefardi Jews. AFAIK the sefardim in my family do eat fish and milk together. 11:53 AM Sep 26th, 2009 via TweetDeck
@buberzionist fish with butter is fine according to majority halakhic opinion and certainly mainstream practice. 11:15 AM Sep 26th, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to buberzionist
@hsabomilner Son is not a Levi if he converted. Don't have a source off hand. 6:42 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to hsabomilner
@hsabomilner Parshas Emor verse 16. Kohen who marries a 'pesulah', his offspring do not keep kehunah, even if the woman is Jewish. 6:37 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to hsabomilner
@openmindedtorah That sounds more like Yom Kipur if you ask me. 6:27 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to OMTorah
@mascety I haven't seen the Maharal but that would make sense. See Mesilas Yesharim, Zehirus, where he describes teshuvah vs. din 6:21 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to mascety
@mascety I'd say it's like the medrash in bereshis where God activated midas ha-rachamim when he saw the world couldn't survive pure din. 6:20 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to mascety
@openmindedtorah How does all that explain the change in the bracha? 6:15 AM Sep 22nd, 2009 via TweetDeck in reply to OMTorah
