Giant of the Torah learning world Rav Reuven Elbaz shlit”a had several strong thoughts to share in his recent video address.
“Many lost their loved ones recently because of our sins,” says Rav Elbaz of the past year. The rabbi then tells of a group of esteemed talmidei chachamim who have formed a chesed organization which has functioned in secret. The group has helped raise funds and other forms of support for families who are living in dangerous poverty.
Now, however, things have gotten worse than ever. Many couples are struggling to get married after losing a parent. Others are struggling to buy groceries, or pay rent. Rav Elbaz decided it was time to address the world at large.
Those who donate to help those “starving to death,” the Rav insists, will have this mitzvah “by their side” this coming Yom Kippur.
Donations to help the families selected for help by the talmidei chachamim are being collected here for a limited time.
Its not our job to justify people’s suffering. Just do a mitzva. Its not necessary to mention Klal Yisroel’s sins.
It’s also because Yidden are going in mass to Orlando for Yomim Tovim. Instead of an aliyah, they make a yerida.
Corona, we were told, happened because of extravagant ostentatious weddings that were taking place. Backyard & driveway weddings, next to the stinky garbage cans, is the new preferred way, because we saw that it could be done.
Surfside happened because of lace top shaitels.
The Denver tragedy happened because idiots still bring cellphones into Shuls and batei medrashim.
Navi, you are a Navi sheker!
1) Who are you to say the reasoning of Hashem מי יודע חשבונו של עולם ?
2) when you say “our sins” that includes you too. Let us know when you did Teshuvah !!

These Yungeleit which must support their families, should be careful not to get hurt when they join those wild protests and fight with the police. If they can’t go to work the next day it might impact there earnings.
