The Rabbis discuss the prevalent problem confronting religious persons who attempt to include their secular relatives in ritual Jewish events.Rabbi Kivelevitz believes that accommodations that validate the non religious members importance and self worth are crucial.Rabbi Worch states emphatically that this attitude leads to violations of the spirit and letter of our sacred laws and customs.Kivelevitz cites in example the actions of Rav Avraham Pam Zt'l and his Rebbetzin Sorah a"h in preparation for Halloween, while Worch strongly discounts the parallel.Rabbi Kivelevitz refers to a Shailah concerning a wedding that he was asked to rule on.In deference to the family's strong feelings,he instructed the Mesader Kedushin to introduce an accommodation that would preserve family unity.Rabbi Worch lambastes his co-host for his temerity in issuing such a Psak,and believes he will be censured for it in the Mesivta DaRekiya.The pair spar over the real meaning of the Biblical word \u05d3\u05eaand how that is reflected in the concept Das Yehudis.Please leave us a review or email us at ravkiv@gmail.comfind out more about this podcast fromyeshivaofnewark.jewishpodcasts.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
