The more sitra achra and its evil senses its ultimate demise, the angrier its opposition to holiness becomes. Thank you for this excellent shiur, Rabbi Breitowitz. Baruch Hashem from NC, USA.
I am in West Rogers Park. We are growing big time,B"H. Yes as far as you could see all the stores were Jewish own, now the Jewish stores are all kosher with 12 kosher restaurants in the Chicago area yum.
Proverbs 24:17 Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, or let your heart be glad when he stumbles, 18 or HaShem may see it as evil in His eyes, and turn His wrath away from him, (and on to you).
First of all thank you very much for the video's i am really enjoying it .I thought of my own chiddush. Please, someone ask Rabbi breitowitz if it can be that, maybe the Or Hachiam is only saying that by the shevatim because they are tzadikem and tzadik goizer Hakudosh Baruch Hu is makieam. And that is why when Yosef wasn't hurt they just sold him. So he is not arguing that the average person can override Hashem with bechura. S.M.R.
I have the same question. So did the martyred Rabbis. This is just speculation on my part, but if you look at Cain and his murder of Abel, Cain did teshuvah and got a stay of execution. He was allowed many more years of life until it was finally time to pay. We cannot truly know G-D's mind, but perhaps a price did eventually have to be paid for the mistreatment of Yosuf. I seem to remember once hearing that the Ten Martyrs accepted their fate so that Israel as a whole would not be punished. I don't remember where I heard this, so take it with a few grains of salt. Hopefully someone else can clarify, as I would like a better answer than what I can give.
We might even be able to apply the 10 martyrs scenario with the tragedy of Simchat Torah. It could be that the whole nation was supposed to suffer massive losses and for some reason Hashem amended it to what it was.@@MFPhoto1
You'll notice that this broadcast has a COMMENTS section. Not all of your posts do - like a recent one from Ohr Somayach. They SHOULD by definition,because it represents an opportunity for your audience to react. This should ALWAYS be the case for the sake of civility. In a question raised by one such post: what are the chances that someone who is not as educated or righteous as a sage, be to correct him with the truth? The answer you gave is very little little - like one in several million. The answer actually is- ONE-IN-TWO!! Either G-D shows him the correct answer through his innate knowledge from birth as a Jew, or NOT. This was is called giving your fellow the benefit of the doubt, since you don't know ALL there is regarding this person A better question regarding Yoseph and his Brothers is : why did Joseph have the arrogance to suggest that they and the entire family and the sun and the moon and the stars will bow to him? Shouldn't we be looking to raise up our fellow Jew to the best he can be through our strengths - rather than DOMINATE, which results in JUSTIFIED ANGER?
P.S. Is it okay for a parent to show FAVORITISM regarding one of his children? How do you expect to foster UNITY by taking an elitist and bourgeois attitude of DOMINANCE?
Thank you Rabbi Breitowitz for sharing your Torah wisdom with all of us.
Thanks
Thank you so much Rabbi Breitowitz. Your channel is truly a blessing.

As Mark Twain once said: Virtue isn’t Virtue until it is TESTED‼️
Proverbs 24:17
Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,
or let your heart be glad when he stumbles,
18 or HaShem may see it as evil in His eyes,
and turn His wrath away from him, (and on to you).

they will regroup , rebuild , rearm , recover and then they will look for those that killed their children .
If Yosefs' brothers did teshuvah, why did the 10 martyrs have to perish?

@@MFPhoto1 It could also be that although there was tshuvah it still affected the neshamas on that level. So this was a cleansing
I don't think that the choice between being a צדיק or a רשע is the only domain of free will.
Who were the other wives that the 11 brother marry? Names, places?

if the jewish people keep two consecutive Shabbatoth.then the Moschiach will come.
