  I very much enjoyed your class on Goliath and his mother go to therapy. I am not fully understanding what was Urpah “issue“ was it her inability to make a decision and be comfortable w her decision?
  
  Can u pls clarify!
  
  Also regarding Goliath “ Jewish status “
  Would that have any Halachik difference with David killing him ? Was his Condemned to capital punishment for cursing G / d if he was a Jew? Was David allowed to kill another Jew?
  
  Lastly, if most of it was in Goliath's head - heart why did Dovid Not try to talk w him counselor mentor him - why kill him?

    1. The issue was not just the inability to make a decision, but also being torn between two worlds: The world of truth and ultimate commitment, and the world of firvoulessness. It is not easy to say: I am in, all the way. I am an Eved Hashem!An example: People do not want to get married, because it is a new life--24-7 you are not connected to someone outside of you.2. Maybe he was not Jewish because perhaps Arpah's conversion was flawed. Even if he was, as you say, he was a menace and danger to so many innocent people. So if he was Jewish or not, the bottom line, if someone is going to destroy innocent people, you can eliminate him.3. Obviously he was not ready for talk therapy. He was not very self-aware. Can someone try to talk to Hitler about why he hates Jews so much? Or to Amalek, or Haman? The hate is too powerful and too forceful.

  Message:

  Thank you for your fantastic shiur and excellent message on the VAYICHAN program about Araph and Ruth.

  (My mother too is a big fan of your shiurim !).

  I would like to direct your attention to a short piece by the Piacezna Rebbe in Hachoras Hoavreichim page 275 (i think Tza Vezirus):

  נפש האדם אוהבת להתרגש. לא על שמחה לבדה רק גם סתם להתרגש אוהבת היא. אף להתרגש בעצב ובכיה רוצה היא. אוהב האיש לראות מראות איומות ולשמוע מעשיות נוראות עד כדי לבכות כדי להתרגש על ידן. חוק וצורך הנפש היא כשאר חקותיה וצרכיותיה.

  
  לכן רק האיש המשלים חקה זאת בעבודה ובהתרגשות התורה והתפלה, שומר נפשו. משא"כ מי שעבודת קדשו בלא התרגשות היא, (אז), או שתבקש לה הנפש התרגשיות אחרות זולות אף של עבירה להשלים חקה, או שסוף כל סוף תחלה אחת ממחלות הנפש מחוסר אחת מצרכיותיה.

  I thought that you would relate to this well as it is connected to your shiur.
  Shkoyach again,

  I have a question regarding Ruth and Arpah great great grandmothers, the daughters of Lot

  I remember listening on the class about cristianism and judaism that the Jatam Sofer tells a story that happened to a congregant of his commumity in Luban, long story short, that the daughters of Lot had a good intention by telling the whole world know that their sons are Lot's sons. To say, that theres no such a thing of having a baby without both physical parents like the christians claimed about mister j.

  Now comes my question: is there a such Limud Zchus found in our sages teachings also for Arpah?. I mean since she has this kind of things in her own family traced back to Lot.

  From what the class was about, we have only learned that she had a good part in her soul and how she struggled with her own consciousness, but i would like to know if theres also a next step.

  I hope my question is understood despite that my english it is not my fort. Thanks in advance.

  תודה רבה על השיעור שלך על ערפה, בגללך דיברתי על זה הרבה פעמים. יש לי שאלה אחת שאני כל הזמן שואלת, מה מקור ההבנה שלך כי הטראומה הגליות היה, בא מן ההשפעה של פעם שהיא עם נעמי? איפה אתה, כשצעדה את ארבעת השלבים האלה, היא עשתה לה את הדקירה הגבוהה, וזה מה שהיא נאבקה עם זה שהיא דיכאה אותו. בקיצור הקשר בין טיפול בטראומה והתמכרות, הוא המקור שלהם או שזה רק הבנת ופרשנותך לטקסט, שגם הוא בסדר. רק קוריוס
