It shouldn't be surprising that this rule isn't on a list of practical rules of decision: after all, it's _not_ a practical rule. Rather, it's a rule of the divine voice, if you will, which is not accepted practically. (more) |

"Then the orphan will be obligated, under the terms of the 'honor your father and mother' verse as applying to a teacher/rav, to honor that teacher." I don't see any evidence of this in what you've quoted from others. That someone is "as if he sired him" doesn't necessarily imply that the "honor" ver... (more) |

Interesting. I've never seen this done afair. But maybe I've never been in a minyan that had shacharis duchening and didn't have anyone the gabay knew to be a Levi. (more) |

I guess this is part of a larger question of what determines the paragraph breaks in the Torah. If we know that, then your question might be answered immediately (or might not. I don't know). (more) |

I have to imagine it depends on the individual Muslim. There can't be a blanket rule that a group of people is considered שומרי מצוות בני נח. (more) |

@manassehkatz I'm the downvoter. (1) The answer neither explains nor links to an explanation of why 3 _Tishre_ or 27 _Elul_ is relevant. (2) The question asks specifically for liturgy and this answer proposes none. (3) The answer mentions the statements of _Ben Zoom-a_ without specifying which ones o... (more) |

IMO definitely worth mentioning the text recited when tithing (whether with or without a _b'racha_) since otherwise you're not actually tithing, just moving stuff from your counter to your garbage. (more) |

I'd want this better defined before I could opine yea or nay. Could you give some examples of things that are "charts and useful links and things like that" and some things that are _not_ "charts and useful links and things like that"? Preferably, include some edge cases, not just the obvious. (more) |

@MonicaCellio, this is a _d'var Tora_ I copied from a long time ago, so the research is not fresh in my mind. That said, to address your question about women, I think the general idea by commands that one group has and another does not (whether women, non-_kohanim_, or any other) is that we can learn...

@manassehkatz the idea of it is that it's a timeline, as an aid to study (and summary of) a section of the _Bavli_. Adding prose would defeat the purpose: all the prose is in the _Bavli_ that this is meant to accompany. If you want to argue that it doesn't belong on this site, I can understand that; ... (more) |

Rereading this now, I'm not sure I agree with "Some people might be interested in republishing pieces that they've read elsewhere, but I see little value in our providing a forum for such republication." in all generality. What about posting a "wow!"-novel thought that I read in a book that almost no... (more) |

No, I'm suggesting that the meaning of a name, like the meaning of anything else, is its referent, and that the referent of a name is the person who has it. So the meaning of "_yona_" is a dove or pigeon and the meaning of "_Yona_" is that guy over there. (more) |

| Comment | Post #277849 |
I don't agree. If it's a short form of a name that comes from words meaning "friend of God", then it's a short form of a name that comes from words meaning "friend of God" and nothing more. It certainly doesn't __mean__ "friend of God". But if that's what you mean by "mean" then that's fine, but then... (more) |

I don't understand what you're seeking. You say you're seeking the _meaning_ of the name, but you cite a source as to its _etymology_. Also, I don't know what "meaning" means to you when it comes to a name: usually the meaning of a word is what it refers to, but a name refers to a person. (more) |
