Let My World Survive A compilation of Talmudic and Midrashic sources The story of Noach, a lone tzaddik in a corrupt world by Yosef Deutsch IS AT KESHER STAM


From the moment he set eyes on his newborn son, Lemech knew that this child was extraordinary. The boy was bathed in an otherworldly aura, as if the Shechinah hovered over him. Noach is born into a wild world, where kidnapping and theft are commonplace, where fallen angels tread, and where even the animals are penetrated with evil. Can he, a righteous voice in the midst of chaos, save his world from destruction? In Let My World Survive, the ninth volume in the Let My Nation series, Rabbi Yosef Deutsch tells the story of the great Flood and its aftermath like no other author can: with humor, drama, and a wealth of detail, illuminating complexities and unraveling paradoxes. He expertly weaves explanations from the Talmud, Midrash and Chazal to give a coherent, cohesive, and chronological picture of the first two millennia after Creation - the backdrop to the arrival of Avraham Avinu.(From Feldheim)

MAZEL TOV OU'S NACH YOMI 5TH CYCLE FINISHED YECHEZKEL YESTERDAY AND IS STARTING TREI ASAR PART 1 HOSEA TODAY


Great supplement.The books of the twelve prophets known as the Trei Asar span hundreds of years, from the waning days of the Kingdom of Israel to the dawn of the Second Temple era. These prophets were of different walks of life from noblemen to humble shepherds and lived in various localities, but were united in their mission of conveying the word of God to the nation. In Who Knows Twelve, renowned scholar, historian, and lecturer Rabbi Berel Wein unravels the mystery of these twelve prophets. Drawing from profound historical knowledge and his own life experience as a community leader, Rabbi Wein explains the themes and topics of Trei Asar, applying them to issues at the forefront of contemporary life: faith and doubt, family and community, national unity and the Land of Israel, Jewish survival, sin and repentance, personal and national redemption, assimilation, intermarriage, international disputes, betrayals and scandals, disappointments, and heroic behavior. Though the words of the prophets emerged from the ancient world, Rabbi Wein s insights revitalize them, offering cogent messages for today.(From Koren)Order here or find it at your local bookstore. So join Rabbi Dr. Gidon Rothstein and Rabbi Jack Abramowitz for Trei Asar part 1 Hosea today.

On Repentance: The Thought and Oral Discourses of Rabbi Joseph Dov Soloveitchik IS ON AMAZON


For five decades prior to his death in 1993, Rabbi Joseph Dov Soloveitchik was the unchallenged leader of modern Orthodox Judaism in the United States. His understanding of both traditional Judaism and secular philosophy shaped two generations of rabbinic students at Yeshiva University, and charted a new course for American Orthodox Jews. In On Repentance, noted scholar Pinchas Peli has gathered the major points of Rabbi Soloveitchik's teachings on teshuvah (repentance), based on the annual series of lectures on the theme of teshuvah, presented on the anniversary of his father's death. For many Jews, these lectures were the major academic and intellectual event of the year. Outside of his followers however, few were able to experience the genius of Rabbi Soloveitchik. He gave his lectures in Yiddish, and generally refused to publish. Now readers can experience the brilliant thinking of this great teacher and sage.Order here.Recommended by Rabbi Yudin on JM in the AM last Friday.

Yom Kippur FAQ's / SHC Weekly ~ VaYelech 5777


Q: What should one do if he forgot to say “HaMelech HaMishpat” on Asseret Yeme Teshuva? A: According to Maran[1], if he remembers within three seconds (“Toch Kede Dibbur”), he may say it then. If he remembers after that time, or after starting the next Beracha, he must go back to “Hashiva”. If one only remembers after finishing the Amida, he should repeat the Amida, because the Nussah of “HaMelech HaMishpat” imply that Hashem alone judges his world and not that Hashem loves when the world runs justly – which is the meaning of “Melech ‘Ohev Tzeddaka U’Mishpat”[2]. However, the Ben Ish Hai[3] is concerned about the opinion of the Rama[4] and writes that one should not repeat the Amida. Still, most Poskim[5] follow Maran who requires one to repeat the Amida, as is the opinion of Hacham Ovadia Yosef זצ”ל[6]. In order to take the opinion of the Ben Ish Hai into consideration, Hacham Ovadia and the Ohr L’Tziyon[7] suggest that one who realized he forgot to say “HaMelech HaMishpat” after finishing the Amida, can make a condition when he repeats the Amida, that if he is not required to then the Amida is a Tefillat Nedava. Battle of the Brands Buying and Selling Manufacturing Rights By Dayan Shlomo Cohen, Author of “Pure Money” and Dayan at Ahavat Shalom, Yerushalaim We usually think of buying and selling in regard to tangible items, such as cookies, pens, socks, and cars. Nowadays, though, there is an entire marketplace for intangible items, as well; people buy and sell royalties for a certain product or song, the rights to a specific brand name, the rights to sell an item in a particular region, and even airspace.

V'Higadeta-Yom Kippur & Sukkos Insights, stories, and teachings from the treasure-trove of maggid Harav Yaakov Galinsky, zt"l IS AT KESHER STAM


For decades, Rav Yaakov Galinsky fulfilled the directive of the Steipler, Rav Yaakov Yisrael Kanievsky, zt”l, whom he knew in the Novardok yeshivah in Bialystok. "Reb Yaakov, the Steipler advised, "zolst zogen un zogen un zogen. You need to speak and speak and speak.” Rav Galinsky delivered thousands of drashosin the halls of yeshivos and batei midrash, and before huge audiences, both religious and nonreligious. He is responsible for bringing many, many people closer to Hashem. Now these drashos are accessible in print to the English-speaking audience. In this volume, Rav Galinsky goes through each viduy confession, one by one, and through his stories and lessons from the Torah and Chazal, he explains how each one applies to us. Besides his insightful explanations of the vidui, here you will find stories and lessons on the mitzvos of Yom Kippur itself, on the order of the service in the tefillah, on sefer Yonah and Ne’ilah, as well as derashos on Sukkos, the arba’ah minim, the simchas beis hasho’eivah, the ushpizin, Hoshana Rabbah, and Simchas Torah. With his unique, penetrating style — with stories and parables, life lessons and maxims, pesukim and ma’amarei Chazal — he topples the defensive walls we’ve built around ourselves.

Rav Wolbe on Chumash Volume 2 More Insights of Rav Shlomo Wolbe on the weekly Torah readings and the Festivals IS AT KESHER STAM


Rav Wolbe, zt'l -- The Mashgiach -- continues to guide us. Thousands of Jews throughout the world have made Rav Wolbe on Chumash an integral part of their Shabbos table discussion and their Torah learning. In Rav Wolbe on Chumash 2, Rabbi Yitzchok Caplan, R' Wolbe's grandson, continues to share the Mashgiach's wisdom and understanding with us. Based on the weekly discourses on the parashah that Rav Wolbe zt'l gave for decades, as well as his many writings, Rav Wolbe on Chumash 2 examines the Chumash through the eyes of one of the great mussar masters of our time, the author of the acclaimed and beloved mussar classic, Alei Shur. Through the events and words of the Chumash, we learn to understand the spiritual realities and challenges of our own lives. The Torah explanations in the book are succinct, thought-provoking - and, yes, action-provoking as well, with each of them concluding with practical lessons and ideas. A yeshiva's mashgiach combines profound knowledge of Hashem's Torah with a deep understanding of human nature. He understands the spiritual dimension of our lives, and is fully aware of our human frailties as well. He knows our potential, and the pitfalls that sometimes keep us from reaching it. Rav Shlomo Wolbe was "the Mashgiach." And all of Jewry were - and still are - his students, as we share his ideas in this transformative and compelling Torah work.Click here for 10% discount.

Schottenstein Talmud Yerushalmi - English Edition [#34] - Tractate Nazir Vol 1 IS AT KESHER STAM


For five generations of the Talmudic era, the great Sages of the Land of Israel flourished in the Galil. There, like the Sages of Babylonia, they debated, expounded, and applied the laws and principles of the Mishnah that were received at Sinai .The sacred learning of those years was gathered in the Talmud Yerushalmi The Jerusalem Tamud. They lived with Roman pogroms and persecution but the flame of Torah burned bright despite it all. Until about 350 C. E., when brutal Roman anti-Semitism decimated the Holy LandÆs yeshivos and silenced its voice of Torah. But the Sages teachings live on in the Talmud Yerushalmi, just as the teachings of Babylonia live one in the Talmud Bavli - The Babylonian Talmud. But while the Sages of Babylonia had another 150 years to redact, clarify and organize the text of the Babylonian Talmud, Roman persecution in the Holy Land made that impossible. Thus, the Jerusalem Talmud is exceedingly difficult, and despite its great significance it has been a closed book to all but select, elite scholars. Now, thanks to the outstanding scholars who produced the classic Schottenstein Edition of Talmud Bavli, the lock is being removed on yet another treasure-house of Torah Sheball Peh, the Oral Law. This project has been enthusiastically welcomed and endorsed by Torah leaders in Israel and America.At Kesher Stam all Yerushalmis are 20% off.

[Aneinu] CHABAD.ORG Rabbi Brutally Beaten in Zhitomir, Ukraine Jewish community asks for prayers; motive for the attack remains unknown


A rabbi was found badly beaten this morning in the western Ukrainian city of Zhitomir. With the onset of Shabbat there, Jewish community leaders are asking for prayers. Rabbi Mendel Deitsch, a longtime Chabad-Lubavitch emissary in France and more recently in Israel, was brutally attacked at Zhitomir’s central train station early Friday morning, where he was discovered and transported to a local hospital. The Jewish Community of Zhitomir, headed by Chabad Rabbi Shlomo Wilhelm, was alerted to the attack hours after Deitsch was admitted to the hospital. Rabbi Mendel Deitsch Rabbi Mendel Deitsch Deitsch has been active in strengthening Jewish life in the former Soviet Union for many years, and is a central organizer of hospitality and programming at the burial site of Chabad’s founder—Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, in Haditch, Ukraine, where Deitsch is believed to have spent Rosh Hashanah. The motive for the attack remains unknown. Violent anti-Semitic attacks in Ukraine are rare, and there is no indication at this time that it was anti-Semitic in nature. As Shabbat approached in Ukraine, Deitsch was being operated on in Zhitomir. His situation is being described as extremely critical. “The most important thing at this time,” stated Wilhelm, “is that people pray for the full recovery of Menachem Mendel Mordechai ben Miriam.”
