Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech\\xa0Kohn Ztl on \\u05e4\\u05e8\\u05e9\\u05ea \\u05de\\u05d8\\u05d5\\u05ea\\u200e on the topic of \\u05e0\\u05d1\\u05d5\\u05d0\\u05ea \\u05de\\u05e9\\u05d4.\\xa0\\xa0

Discussed:

\\n
    \\n
  • What is the difference between '\\u05db\\u05d4 \\u05d0\\u05de\\u05e8 \\u05d4', the phrase used by all \\u05e0\\u05d1\\u05d9\\u05d0\\u05d9\\u05dd, and the phrase '\\u05d6\\u05d4 \\u05d3\\u05d1\\u05e8 \\u05d4' used by Moshe?
  • \\n
  • Why does the Rambam have two separate principles of faith, one to believe in prophecy and a second for \\u05e0\\u05d1\\u05d5\\u05d0\\u05ea \\u05de\\u05e9\\u05d4? What is so special about \\u05e0\\u05d1\\u05d5\\u05d0\\u05ea \\u05de\\u05e9\\u05d4 that it requires a separate principle of faith?
  • \\n
  • The Rambam explains what purpose miracles play in relation to prophecy and what are the requirements before we accept someone as a bona fide \\u05e0\\u05d1\\u05d9\\u05d0.
