MUSSAR Pirkei Avot (7) A Legal System or A House of Cards?
To be a lawyer or politician one has to speak from both sides of the mouth when one is Politically correct and do things which look appropriate but are not appropriate , Donald Trump seems like a nice person and her daughter converted to Judaism , but it does not mean anything and even though.. HaShem took away his free choice as soon as he became president and HaShem will use him as a tool to do his will, and if needed he will use him to Wake up Am ysirael and that’s not a pleasant .. Same concept applies to various issues in life.. people don’t like wake up call and it’s a complete delusion to think everything is going to fine… and whatever is going to happen it;s in hand of HaShem
Whatever HaShem wants to happen will Happen.. the ultimate purpose of life is to do the will of HaShem and whatever obstacle we face it’s will of HaShem and people will have an easy way to cope with various challenges… we should not live in illusions.
What is a Ketubah, it protects the the wife from an evil husband a husband who is not willing to give the wife a get, according to Halacha it’s allowed to beat him up until he says yes to give the get.. and until he gives gets he is not considered as part of Minyan and his Judaism is on suspension ..
Don’t send the children to Public schools .. Jewish Elementray school teach Daat Torah When we have Yeshivas we need to send our children to them. Rabbi Salant ztl story saw that one parents is trying to collect tzedaka for Yeshiva no one is giving anything. He says to them to sell sefer Torah to send the kid to the Yeshiva. Dont spend on sefer Torah and spend it on sponsoring a child to study in a yeshiva and it will give kavod in the next world. A person who went to Yeshiva is most probably likely to stay Religious than the those who go to a public school .
when one is a Judge don’t act like a lawyer. A Jew is not allowed to go to a secular court unless he has permission from Jewish Beit Din, go to beit din is always the first option .. if the other party does not obey to come to beit din then take permission from the beit din and one can go to secular court and it turns and abomination into a mitzvah..
A criminal lawyer will never have yirat shamayim and is a rasha.. a judge should always look an issue black and white .. when a litigant stands before you consider them both guilty a righteous judge should review every single fact of the case..
Similarly when it comes to your lives too we should act like a judge and not like a lawyer.. a person can never improve and do teshvua when he cannot accept his short comings …Have friends which which tells u the truth .. if a friend supports ones all bad actions then he is not a friend but a satan.. surround yourself which will tell you things which will help in develop ones character..
Some parts of Chabad have turned into idol worship, Previous Generation of Chabad were tzadikim who sacrificed their life Kiddush HaShem and now many of them have turned into idol worshiping.. and someone has to tell the truth that this is wrong.. As a Jew has an obligation to tell them the truth that they are going against Torah
In Torah world after a judgement is made both parties are innocent, and say one pays for the punishment, one fulfils a mitzvah and one goes back to square one …
Rebuke is something which exposes our faults and it either lead to peace or war, if we see anyone making a sin , we have an obligation to tell him the truth… And if that person is of truth when rebuked, will accept it and appreciate it… Rebuke will uncover the truth.We learn the concept of rebuke is from HaShem himself . HaShem runs the show
Don’t steal…the illusion people have that they idolize robin hood is wrong.. in fact he is a Rasha…
The secret to always being a Judge on one self and others correctly is Fearing HaShem.. when one fears HaShem and accepts the fact that on day of judgement we will have to account for our actions..
Yirat Shamayim is the foundation of Judaism. when we try to get people to the truth we have to live to the truth, one cannot be a hypocrite.
We always have Emunah test but we need to know that HaShem is always with me …
