Day 170: Believing Constructive Information
?
?
SEFER CHOFETZ CHAIM
?
Day 170 ¨C Believing Constructive Information???????????
?
Unlike listening to rechilus, which is justified when the information is pertinent, believing rechilus is not permissible regardless of one¡¯s purpose. Even if one must inquire about a person with whom he is considering entering
into a relationship, he may not believe as fact any negative information that has been told about the person. Never may one develop feelings of hatred towards a person on the basis of information heard about him ¨C even though the information was obtained in
a permissible manner.

SEFER SHMIRAS HALOSHON
?
Most Neglected
?
Above, we referred to shmiras haloshon as a meis mitzvah, a mitzvah which is woefully ignored by many who do not reckon it as a mitzvah at all. Though this needs no proof, we will nevertheless demonstrate that it is true.
?
There are people who find nothing wrong with saying the most derogatory remarks about others, for no good reason. When asked, ¡°Why do you speak loshon hora?¡¯¡¯ they respond with dozens of reasons as to why their words are not loshon hora at all! If the questioner
then responds with irrefutable proof that, indeed, the statements voiced do constitute loshon hora, they respond, ¡°Well, it¡¯s not loshon hora when said about So-and-so ¡ª it¡¯s a mitzvah to speak ill of him!¡¯¡¯ The more one tries to convince them that they err,
the more they heap calumny upon the subject of their ill-spoken words.
?
Does this happen with other sins? Does an otherwise observant Jew who has been caught eating something forbidden respond to his reprover by grabbing another piece of the food and stuffing it into his own mouth? Certainly not. Why, then, does this occur with
the sin of loshon hora which, as we have shown in previous chapters, is among the worst sins in the Torah? The answer is that this very serious matter has become hefker, disregarded, and trampled upon by many. We speak not only of habitual gossipers. There
are many people who are not given to gossip, yet do not consider loshon hora as serious as most other sins. Therefore, they turn a deaf ear when told to refrain from speaking the forbidden.
?
There is no greater meis mitzvah in our time. |

HELP!! I'm Drowning in Books
Shalom,
Please help me! I'm literally drowning in books
If the over 600 used books listed on my website weren't enough and then there are hundreds more that (very) slowly I am adding to that list, I just received another 300 books! Help me!
There are biographies, for children, non-fiction & self-help titles among others. LOTS of fiction.
You can help me by taking any 10 15 shekel books for just NIS 100.
On the web page, you can sign up to receive notifications when books are added.
They are located in Ramot, Jerusalem. It might be possible to meet elsewhere, including outside of Jerusalem, depending on where my clients take me.
Have a look & order before the best books are taken.

Why We Propser
Said the Belzer: "We read in Pslam 24:5:' He shall receive a blessing from the Lord and righteouness from the God of his salvation.' When we succeed in business or study let us remember that our success has come not because of our sgacity or good sense. Furthermore, let us not imagine that we have deserved the blessing because of our goodness. We have received it because God in His mercy has desired to aid us."

Jewish New Year Hebrew Poem on Milk Cartons
Hi Everyone!
In honor of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year,
Tnuva printed Hebrew New Year poems on the side of its milk cartons.
I included an English translation of each poem.
August 30 is my aliyah anniversary.
37 years ago, I made aliyah from Brooklyn to Israel.
It was the best decision of my life. I highly recommend it!
Seven years ago, I made an aliyah anniversary video and posted it at:
Enjoy and please share the sites. Thank you!
May the aliyah from all over the world grow and
bring more Jews back to their homeland, Eretz Yisrael.
Shana Tova!
Jacob

Prayer Without Feeling
Rabbi Aryeh Leib, the grandfather of Shpoli said: "One who prays without feeling is like one who piles up heaps of sand, plaster and bricks, but has no water. How does one expect to cement them together?"

Here are 2 of Leora¡¯s success ¨C primarily due to big changes on the food-front.

Leora called me. ¡°I had to walk up some hills and stairs on my outing. For the first time in many years¡I had NO CHEST PAIN!¡± Leora said excitedly.
