Day 170 – 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 – 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 — 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.

The Shechinah's Sorrow

?

A lumber dealer shipped a load of wood down the river and much of it was lost. He expressed his grief to the Lekhivitzer. The rabbi rebuked him and said: "Do you not know that the Shechinah participates in everyone's sorrows? Is it then worthy of you to bring sorrow to the Shechinah for the loss of some lumber?"

Day 169 – Believing Rechilus?
?
The prohibition which forbids acceptance of loshon hora or rechilus, which we have translated “Do not accept a false report,” uses the term “shav,” which literally means vain or meaningless. Clearly, the inference is that negative speech is not often to be given credence.
?
It is often difficult, if not impossible, for a speaker to convey every detail and all background information that is crucial for an accurate understanding of a given occurrence. Certainly, if the speaker is violating halachah by relating rechilus, one dare not assume that he is being careful to speak only the truth. Therefore, as in the case of loshon hora, belief of secondhand information in a way that could cause ill feelings among people is unjustified and prohibited.
?
?
SEFER SHMIRAS HALOSHON
?
Lying in Disgrace
?
The obligation to bury a meis mitzvah, unattended corpse, rests upon all Jews without exception. The Talmud (Berachos 19b) states that even a Kohen Gadol (High Priest), a nazir,1 or someone who is on his way to the Temple to bring a Pesach offering must attend to a meis mitzvah.
?
Sefer Chareidim (105:261) writes that a mitzvah which the current generation is neglecting is akin to a meis mitzvah. When no one pursues a given mitzvah — pursue it! Otherwise, that mitzvah ascends before the Heavenly Throne and complains, “How lowly I am, for I am all but forgotten from among the people.’’
?
What is an actual meis mitzvah? A lifeless corpse. The Torah is stringent regarding its burial, not because of what it is now, but because of what it once was — an abode for a Jewish soul. It is thus that the Torah requires that a Kohen Gadol — who is not permitted to attend to the corpse of even his own father or mother — attend to a meis mitzvah, so that it not lie in disgrace. Surely, then, if a mitzvah of the Torah — which is more precious than gems (Mishlei?3:13) and is the “daily delight” of the One Above (ibid.?8:30) — is lying in disgrace, it is our obligation to strengthen ourselves in its observance, so that it not be cause for indictment of our generation before Hashem.
?
To our misfortune, the concept of loshon hora is woefully ignored by many in our generation, thus making it a “meis mitzvah” of our day. How great then is the reward of those who rescue this mitzvah from disgrace by faithfully adhering to the laws of shmiras haloshon.
?
1. The voluntary vow which makes a person a nazir (lit., one who is separated) requires him to abstain from eating grapes or their derivatives; from cutting his hair; and from coming in contact with a human corpse (see Bamidbar ch. 6).

Day 168 – Lending an Ear????????
?
There are instances where one may listen to?rechilus?although the information is not at all pertinent to him.
?
When an individual is experiencing sadness or extreme anxiety and is in need of someone with whom to share his frustration, it is considered an act of kindness to lend a sympathetic ear and listen to his troubles. One must be certain, though, that the circumstances do, in fact, demand this. Also, such expression should not become a regular occurrence for the speaker. Finally, care must be taken that the speaker not wander from the matter at hand and offer negative remarks which are not relevant.
?
One may also listen to?rechilus?if his intention is to make the speaker understand that his perception of the situation, and of those of whom he speaks negatively, is mistaken.
?
?
SEFER SHMIRAS HALOSHON
?
Taking Hold of the Tree
?
The Torah is called a “tree of life for those who grasp it” (Mishlei?3:18). The way to grab onto a tree is to take hold of one its branches; in so doing, one has attached himself to the entire tree of which this branch is a part. So it is, explains?Sefer Chareidim?(ch. 61), with Torah. The way to attach oneself to the 613?mitzvos?is by fulfilling one particular?mitzvah?with exacting precision and total dedication. Dedication and attachment to a single commandment will cause one’s soul to become united with Hashem and His Torah and will lead to the proper fulfillment of other?mitzvos?as well. Thus do we find, “Rav Nachman said: I will be rewarded [in the World to Come] for having [zealously] fulfilled [the?mitzvah] to eat three meals on Shabbos. Rav Sheishes said: I will be rewarded for having [zealously] fulfilled the?mitzvah?of?tefillin” (Shabbos?118b). The Talmud goes on to cite similar statements of other Sages and offers illustrations of how meticulously each sage fulfilled the?mitzvah?of which he spoke.?Sefer Chareidim?also cites?Talmud Yerushalmi?which states that fulfillment of a given?mitzvah?with total dedication and precision is a catalyst for earning the great reward of the World to Come.
?
Thus, the above can be added to all the great benefits of?shmiras haloshon?of which we have already spoken. One who will dedicate himself to the meticulous observance of these laws in all their fine details, in all situations and under all conditions, will thereby take hold of a branch of the Tree of Life and merit reward that no angel can fathom.

The Other's Arguments

?

Said the Apter: "We find that when Abraham spoke in defense of Sodom, he enumerated fifty men, forty five, and so forth (Genesis 18:24-32). The Lord could have replied to him at once that Sodom did not contain a single just man, but He wished to teach a lesson, namely, that permission should be granted to one who argues, to bring out all his points. These should be answered one by one, with patience. It is not fitting that a man should give an abrupt answer immediately in order to silence his adversary."

Day 167– Soliciting Information
?
Not only may one listen to rechilus that is important for him to hear, he may even approach someone and request information that would otherwise be considered rechilus. Obviously, the solicitor must make it clear that his solicitation is sanctioned by halachah.
?
One must also be careful to request only pertinent information and nothing more. Should the person from whom the information was requested begin relating unnecessary gossip, he should be stopped immediately.
?
?
SEFER SHMIRAS HALOSHON
?
Day after Day
?
Torah is also likened to bread, as it is written, “Come partake of my bread” (Mishlei 9:5). Now, if man does not eat bread for a day or two, he becomes weakened; if he goes a week without bread (or a comparable substitute), he becomes extremely weak and it is difficult for him to regain the strength that he has lost. This is exactly the way of Torah study, which is sustenance for the soul. If a Jew lets a few days go by without study, his soul becomes weakened; if he lets an entire week slip by, his soul grows extremely weak.
?
One must be extremely zealous not to allow even a day to pass without Torah study. Such interruptions have a negative impact on the Torah study that will follow, as the Sages state, “If you forsake me [the Torah] for one day, I will forsake you for two” (Yerushalmi Berachos 9:5).
?
If extenuating circumstances cause a cancellation of one’s daily study session, the student should consider this as “borrowed time” that must be repaid. He should strive to repay his debt quickly, in the way of the Talmudic sage who “borrowed by day and paid back that night” (Eruvin 65a).
?
As mentioned above, one must ensure that his study sessions not be marked by interruptions. Diligent uninterrupted study causes a spirit of sanctity to become manifest upon the student; such is not the case with study marked by disruption.
