    Dear Rabbi Jacobson Shlita

    I listened to the womens class on Terumah as I try every week. Thank you so much. Please let me know who says this pshat on Reish Lakish in the Gemara BM of what his intentions were when he jumped in the water. It can be an dynamo of chizuk for those who struggle with this.

    Thank you again and again

      על פי כתב יד מינכן, כתב יד המבורג וכתב יד אסקוריאל 'חזייה ריש לקיש, אדמייה כאיתתא, ושאוור אבתריה לירדנא' (תרגום: ראהו ריש לקיש, חשבו לאישה[3], וקפץ אחריו לירדן).

    I always thought it meant Hashem has rachmanim on the morons. But if a Pesi is someone who is admitting they don’t know and just subjugate to Hashems will. 
    Hashem is shomer over them because they are His people . And even if they think things are bad, they don’t feel it, because they have full belief in Hashem.

    MICHAL AND DAVID

    Perhaps Michal was traumatized by her own experience with her father, Shaul's, insanity.  That could be why she could not tolerate David acting with such wild abandon.  After having experienced her father's mental illness, even a reminder of insanity would trigger a strong response.

    So how come Jews are still being punished for the cheit ha egel to this day if the acacia wood was supposed to atone for it?
