Authentic Judaism

Rosh Hashana

2009-09-18T15:45:00.001+03:00

We wish and pray to Hashem Yisborach that all Authentic Jews everywhere should be written in the book of eternal life for a happy and healthy year in Ruchnius and Gashmius.

We pray that all the simple minded Jews who the spark of Emunah still exists in their souls, should find the right road to return to Authentic Jewry as well as the strength to go down that road.

As for the Minim and Epikorsim and promoters of non-Authentic Jewish Ideology (and of course all the leaders of Zionism) – we say in Slichos of Erev Rosh Hashana:

Life that is good may you grant your servants,

redeeming their souls, from the sight of Gehinnom, as King David stated.

Not so for the wicked who threw off Your yoke;

incite death against them , may they descend to the grave alive.

JBS, Setting the Record Straight

2009-09-15T17:56:00.001+03:00

Jossef Bear Soloveitchik (JBS) was the son of R’ Moshe Soloveicthik who was the son of the Great R’ Chaim Brisker.

Moshe Soloveitchik’s wife introduced great amounts of secular literature into the domestic nest, poisoning the family atmosphere.

The Great Reb Chaim is quoted as saying that his foresight made only two mistakes in life. World War 1 and Moshe Soloveichek's Shiduch.

JBS went to Berlin University and studied Apikorsus (the philosophy of Hermann Kohen from the Mendelson school of thought.

If one intentionally inserts himself into an atmosphere of Epikorsus, like a university, it is permitted to speak freely Lashon Harah about that person -(Kitzur HilChos Lashon Harah, Haim Frieman Bnei Brak 1983, pg 34.)

JBS’s thesis seems to be nowhere to be found! We demand that his family and YU make it available for public scrutiny!

While in Berlin he discovered his love for TL.

What does “discovering his love” mean, studying Kant together at the University library? Come on Mrs. Meiselmann, talk English!

We demand that the Soloveichick family describe in all it's ugly detail what exactly was the nature of their pre-marital relationship!

JBS’ father attempted to get JBS a job teaching at the Schechter Theological Seminary. (I lost my reference on this but you YU historians must have on hand somewhere). That means he attempted to work for a Conservative Seminary.

JBS headed YU for many years. YU promotes non-authentic Jewish ideology. Every Authentic Gadol beTorah held to this opinion.

Yes, it is true that almost every Gadol beTorah in America showed no public animosity towards JBS. Some also showed friendship, publicly, towards him.

This was a tactical behavioral decision on their part. They were simply afraid that if they would distance him further from Authentic Judaism, more than he had already distanced himself, this could cause a domino effect and many simpleminded Jews who were followers of JBS could go lost.

This is, for obvious reasons, not applicable today. Today “JBsism” is nothing less than a cult that has to be done away with.

In private forums JBS was clearly classified and abhorred by Authentic Gedolim for the impostor he really was.

Rabbi Aharon Kotler called JBS "Acher" and said that all the Tumah of America rest upon his shoulders.

During his lifetime JBS undermined Authentic Jewish morals. The most famous one was his cowardly refusal to support the ban on girls being drafted into the Zionist army. Rabbi Kotler and Rabbi Mendel Zaks, the son in law of the Chofetz Chaim wanted his cooperation and were unsuccessful getting it.

There were other areas where he undermined Authentic Jewish Halacha (See letters of R' Eliezer Shach vol 4, 36)

His institution today enrolls openly declared homosexuals. How is this possible? Do the math.

JBS's Divrei Torah are a Chulant of Breslov hallucinations, Kantian Philosophy, and Brisker Chilukim . We can accuratly say that they are insignificant garbage and not worth the paper they are printed on.

Many members of JB's family have returned to Authentic Judaism, like the Meiselman family as well as others.

--> Come on YU guys, bring on the spelling mistakes! <--

Hearken to Reb Chaim!

2009-09-14T20:01:00.001+03:00

The (Authentic) Brisker Rav ZATZAL related the following anecdote about his father, the Holy Reb Chaim ZATZAL:

When he (the Brisker Rav) was a child, on Tisha BeAv, Reb Chaim saw him talking to another child in the Synagogue.

Reb Chaim asked him as to the subject of their conversation.

The Brisker Rav said that he related the famous Gemara in Gitin about the Churban.

Reb Chaim continued: "And what did the other boy say to you?"

His son said: That a certain "scholarly" work quotes this Gemarah with a different Girsa than that of the Gemara.

Immediately R' Chaim raised his voice and said "You must know that this boy is an epikorus, It is forbidden to satnd in his 4 Amos, and his wine is forbidden…

Pearls of Wisdom from the Brisker Rav, Bnei Brak 5769, Pg 33.

It looks obvious that Reb Chaim saw things that many others overlooked. Baruch Hashem we have Authentic Gedolei Yisroel!

The “Rav” Exposed as an Outright Liar!

2009-09-12T23:50:00.001+03:00

This past Shabbos night, at a very late hour, I lay on the floor learning the Holy Torah. (why I learn laying on the floor is a subject for another post). I was next to a bookshelf and I took out an old notebook of mine. Inside I found a Xerox copy of JB’s Hesped on his uncle, the Authentic Brisker Rav. As I skimmed through it I was impressed how somebody could get so much junk onto a page of paper. Such crazy ideas. It really read like a Beslov book written by some disarranged Brisker.

Anyway towards the end he says that his uncle wasn’t really “apposed” to Zionism and the Zionist State. Actually he was… … …. and explains the Brisker Rav’s lack of enthusiasm for Zionism and its State in cheep philosophical rhetoric. (which he absorbed in Berlin, apparently, while of course discovering his love for…. whoops, sorry for bringing that up again).

Now this is an outright lie.Anyone who knew the Brisker Rav knew his vehement disgust with Zionism and everything connected it. Not only was the Brisker apposed to Zionism he was also apposed to the Agudah’s ideology as well. To water down the Brisker Rav’s hatred towards anything Zionist in any shape or form is an outright lie that only a trained impostor like JB would even dare to attempt.

Yes We Hate Wickedness and We are Proud of It

2009-09-06T15:00:00.001+03:00

We have received many letters that our blog promotes hatred against Jews.

Well, this is true. We hate those impostor Jews who promote false Jewish ideology.

Not only that, but we hate them with great vehemence.

We hate them as much as we can.

Hashem should give us the insight and ability to hate them more.

If you disagree with this idea, you are a Koffer BTorah!

Dovid HaMelech taught us:

Oh Hashem, I hate the ones who promote hatred against you. Those who rise against you I will fight. I hate them to the utmost extreme possible. They are my enemies. Psalms 139

Was Dovid HaMelech talking about Goiyim?, Nazis? Arabs? No he was talking about wicked Jewish elements who refused to accept the law of the Navi. Do your homework.

Anyone who promotes false Jewish ideology is the worst enemy of Hashem.

So do the math.

Yes, we hate Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook.

Yes, we hate JB Slovchick.

Yes, we hate Morman Norman Lamm.

and all this because we love Hashem and his Torah!

So all those peace lovers seem to understand Jewish ideology better than Dovid HaMelech.

Now listen carefully to Rabbi Miller:

Slifkinism – Part 3

2009-09-06T13:39:00.001+03:00

Everything that we have written until now regarding the idiot Natan Slifkin

again I want to iterate that we wouldn’t waste five minutes debunking Slifkin himself being that he is a real nobody, as all can see from watching him ride on elephants and then looking at his juvenile writing (Slifkin suffers from a sickness called “Elephant Diarrhea D’Plume”) however being that there are sinister impostor Rabbis behind him, therefore he concerns us very much. We have already identified two of them and are taking the necessary steps to minimize the scope of their damage)

has been from a Torah outlook.

However, for those who are interested, it should me made clear that Slifkin knows nothing about the science he uses to fight against authentic Judaism. I personally have studied the natural sciences over many a year, and can easily discern that Slifkinism follows pop-science alone and doesn’t understand with any depth: Biology, Microbiology, Zoology, Chemistry, Physics etc. It is so obvious that only one thing is leading him – the interest to degrade Authentic Jewish ideology.

Yes there is already a book published showing how Slifkin’s ideas are based on faulty science, but I cannot refer to yet, until we review it from an authentic Jewish perspective – stay tuned.

This blog is not intended as a forum for debating issues at length. Although there are times that I would like to do such, my Torah study schedule simply does not allow it. However, if you are a real truth seeker and posses minimal knowledge regarding this issue and others discussed here you will get tipped off and can follow up on the subjects with your own resources.

A Deeper Look Into Nathan Slifkin and Herecy

2009-09-04T02:20:00.001+03:00

Important note: This post will not be understood without a good understanding of Authentic Jewish ideology. If you do not possess such, I promise that you will not understand what I am writing, so just go away.

When the Zoo Rabbi, Natahn Slifkin, published his garbage books a few years ago, they were banned by many Gedolei Yisroel. Some Talmidei Chachamim disagreed with the ban. Slifkin’s writings were debated “is this line Kefirah?”, “Is this line heresy” and so on. I want to ignore this issue, albeit just for the sake of clarifying a point.

Let’s say that there is no “exact” Apikorsus in Slifkin’s writings. That is totally irrelevant. Some Gedolei Yisroel, with a much deeper insight than those of mundane thinkers, realized that we are dealing with wicked, epikorus. I, myself, went through most of his books, and I can say that my personal opinion is as follows:

There isn’t one word of epikorsus in his books. But his books are totally epikorsus from beginning to end.

The issue IS NOT at all: Did the son of the Rambam mean this or that. The issue is simply: is this Slifkin an epikorus or not. The Gedolei Yisroel with a farther sight saw exactly “where this guy is coming from” while other talmidei chahamim, as well meaning as they may be, simply missed the boat.

Over a hundred years ago Rabbi Yehoshua Leib Diskin ZATZAL declared that Michel Pennis was an Epikorus and declared a very strong Cherem against him. Many were very surprised. It seemed extreme. Pinnes was a much greater scholar than Slifkin. People said Rabbi Diskin’s wife was behind it! Even great Rabbis disagreed with him. However, as any one fluent in Jewish history knows, we now know how right Rabbi Disken was and how mistaken were those who were taken aback by his “extremism”. We are still suffering today from Pinnes’ endeavors and from the hesitation of those who couldn’t see what Rabbi Diskin did see.

And now anyone who is familiar with what Slifkin is doing and writing today can clearly see that he has become an enemy of Authentic Judaism. His true, ugly essence is now visible to all. He has been revealed for all to see.

So all those pea brains who are banging their fingers on the keyboard trying to bring a proof from this source or another source to Slifkinism and its opinions are missing the boat.

Slifkin and everyone like him as well as those who support these type of Epikorsim (like Prof. Sidzy Lieman, Brooklyn Col) will go lost and Authentic Judaism will prevail forever. Amen.

Oih Veii, Here Comes Another One

2009-08-31T18:29:00.001+03:00

Yes, history repeats itself. Not for some accidental reason. It repeats itself again and again because all of history is following the same blueprint which Hashem has laid down from the beginning of creation.

Part of this plan is that Epikorsim, Jewish imposters, pop up again and again. Some are smarter than others, some are idiots. Some have mastered the power of the pen, other are have oral charisma. The common denominator of them all is that in the end they will all go lost leaving behind an ugly legacy. Our job is to battle them while trying to maintain them so that their damage is as minimal as possible.

A new up and coming enemy of Authentic Judaism is an idiot (I mean as idiot as they come) named Nathan Slifkin. Slifkin is an animal lover (matza min es mino) who calls himself the “Zoo Rabbi”, the reason for this being, apparently, because his congregation and followers are also animals.

Currently, Slifkin has dedicated his life to degrading CHAZAL HaKEDOSHIM as well as contemporary Authentic Jews.

This Slifkin, wouldn’t even be worth mentioning, being that anyone who reads his own writing will immediate discern that we are dealing with a person with a single digit IQ. However, we know that he has some imposter rabbinical personalities, some of them we know their names, others are yet to be revealed, who support him. They also supply him with source material to forward his sinister anti-Jewish crusade.

All we can do now is to DAVEN that this BeHayma and his wicked supporters disappear. Also, if you see any of his books in any bookstore, don’t be afraid to inform the owner that all of the Gedolim have placed his works in CHEREM and they are forbidden to be sold. If the owner does not hearken to Daas Torah, organize a boycott of that bookstore. Slifkin lectures at different left-wing, modern orthodox synagogues, so inform anyone and everyone that he works for the Sitra Achra. We have more particular information about this lowlife, and if anyone could benefit from it, send an email.

Green Bananas

2009-08-03T22:57:00.001+03:00

I love bananas, especially the real big ones. A banana is an amazing powerhouse of energy. However, we sometimes overlook an amazing part of the banana, the peel. The peel, besides being a very efficient wrapper to keep the banana fresh and dry, also has another very important function: to announce when it is the best time to eat the great fruit inside. You see, when the peel is green we know that the banana isn't ready yet, but when it turns yellow we know that the time has come to peel it and eat it.

This is an absolute miracle that deserves studying! All fruits are green when they are still "cooking" on the tree. During this time, they hide by blending in with the green leaves of the tree.

They are hiding because they know that their purpose is to be eaten by creatures which possess color eyesight.

However, when they are ready, they stick out like a sore thumb!

Oranges turn orange; grapefruits turn yellow, and so on. They are screaming "we are now ready to fulfill our purpose! Come eat me!

So this week I had some weird bananas. They were still greenish and didn't look ripe yet. I was hungry, so I went and peeled one. To my surprise, the banana was already overripe and soft. The ripeness and peel color were really out of sync. Then it dawned on me that this wasn't an accident. It made me realize how often we take for granted the great miracle that the peel and ripeness are in sync! We stupid humans don't appreciate things until we lose them, or they go wrong. So now I felt great gratitude to Hashem for this great miracle that shows when we should and when we shouldn't eat fruit.

We can turn every meal we eat into a lesson of Hashem's kindliness to us if we just open our eyes to see it.

JB Soloveitchik, an Authentic Imposter

2009-07-31T18:23:00.001+03:00

Today I walked into a Seforim store here in Jerusalem. As I was looking for new arrivals my nose got caught by a foul stench. As I followed my nose to see what the source of this terrible smell was, it got stronger and stronger. Eventually, I couldn't take the smell any longer and was forced to attach a gas mask which I just happened to have handy in my briefcase. I was, however, determined to reveal the source of this dreadful smell. Finally, I arrived at ground zero of this smell and here's what it was:

Please understand that while I have intentionally colored this story, I have not exaggerated at all. Non-Authentic Jewish ideology simply stinks to those who have an authentic sense of Jewish smell.

One of the greatest imposters ever in the history of Judaism was JB Soloveichek, President, or Dean (or whatever) of Yeshiva University. It can be categorically stated that the only thing authentically Jewish about this man was his last name. This name was the disguise in which this sinister enemy of Authentic Jewry cloaked himself almost his entire life.

While it is well known that JB attended the Goyish Berlin University, it is less than common knowledge what he was doing there. He wasn't studying Judaic Studies. He was studying total and absolute Epikorsus. His doctorate was written about a philosopher named Hermann Cohen who was a member of Moses Mendelssohn's school of heresy. The title was "Epistemology and Metaphysics of Hermann Cohen". Feh, feh…

Well, he did have other businesses in Berlin as his sister openly states:

"While in Berlin Jospeh Dov met Tonya Lewitt, a doctoral candidate in educational psychology at the University of Jena. He was attracted by her knowledge, reasoning power, and pragmatic approach to world problems. As their friendship continued, they discovered their love for each other… " (The Soloveitchik Heritage: A Daughter's Memoir Page 247) feh on you again, JB.

The rest of this wicked man's biography is well known history. For many years he headed the den of iniquity called YU. This institution now proudly boasts of the Gay and other wicked members of its student body and faculty. He was also the chief promoter of the ugly monster called "Modern Orthodoxy" in America and elsewhere.

It is true that many Authentic Jewish authorities refrain from publicly speaking the all-out bitter truth about this man due to not wanting to shame his extremely important grandfather R' Chaim of Brisk and the rest of the Solovechik family. I, however lack any guilty conscience in this area. Sorry. I think R' Chaim in Gan Eden will be very grateful to anyone who unmasks imposter Rabbis, even if they are among his progeny.

Reb Aharon Kotler ZATZAL once said: He (JB) is the Acher (a reference to Alisha Ben Avuiya) of our generation. At another instance Reb Aharon remarked that half of the Tumah of America (and that's a lot) rests on JB's soldiers. Then he took that back saying, "No! All of it!". I heard both anecdotes from Reb Aharon's Talmid Rabbi Yitzchak Waldman ZL who heard it from Reb Aharon himself.

It is time that all authentic Jews unite via a comman opnion of imposters such as JB and all other like him.

Authentic Jewish Summer Vacation

2009-07-23T17:24:00.001+03:00

Anyone familiar with Rabbi Avigdor Miller’s ideology, knows well his negative views of traveling for vacation. He always stressed that if you are fortunate to receive time off from your daily burdens you should be running very fast to the Beis HaMidrash and not some hotel somewhere. Furthermore, he frequently pointed out the the abundance of opportunities to grow in Torah that exist in the large Torah cities as apposed to hick towns. Also it is common knowledge that vacation cities (the Catskills etc.) provide a whole family of NISYONOS that are nor present at home. Rabbi Miller also expressed explicit dissent from touring in Eretz Yisroel as a vacation activity. It is simply a waist of precious time that could be utilized for learning many pages of GEMARAH.

Lately, I have noticed that it has become a massive custom for young Jewish couples, especially newlyweds, to come to Eretz Yisroel during the summer Bein HaZmanim. Where in the world did this strange Minhag arise? Besides the time factor mentioned above, there is another point. Eretz Yisroel is not a tourist attraction. It is a Holy place to serve Hashem. Many Americans come to Eretz Yisroel and add to the problems here, not the solution. For example: The Kosel. The Kosel is a mourning site, where we should morn and cry over past and present, bodily and spiritual, destructions of Klal Yisroel at the hands of Goiyim and Jewish enemies. However, what transpires? Many tourists think that the Kosel is some sort of photo studio to take pictures with with their friends and buddies, and of course their wives. Its like going to your grandpa’s grave and taking pictures of yourself smiling while leaning on the Matzevah!

I am not saying that we don’t need times for refreshment and renewal. Life sometimes is very stressful and the need to change atmosphere is sometimes very legitimate. But let’s utilize the summer as real authentic Jews who think before they go anywhere and let us plan a vacation which will truly bring us closer to Hashem and Torah learning.

ALL-OUT WAR IN THE HOLY CITY

2009-07-17T16:09:00.002+03:00

Yes, there is a war going on in the Holy City of Jerusalem. A war between concerned Authentic Jewry and brutal, wicked Zionist elements and their police-thugs. This war didn’t begin this week or last. It began over 80 years ago when the filthy secular Zionists infiltrated the Holy City with their filthy culture. That was the beginning. And it’s still raging as I type. I was personally hit by Zionist Police thugs three times last night and my body still aches. But this war will continue. There may be quieter days and weeks and months, and than more violent periods. One thing is sure, however, that being who will prevail in this war:

AUTHENTIC JUDAISM IN ITS RIGHTEOUS MIGHT WILL FIGHT THROUGH TO ABSOLUTE VICTORY

I wanted to submit a complete post regarding the latest battle of this ongoing war. About a young Authentic Jewish Woman arrested by Zionist police. However, I am waiting for incoming visual media through which readers can view for themselves the Zionist atrocities. In the interim, I am writing this entry.

One thing is very important to remember: Whether this current event is a blood libel by the wicked Zionist authorities, or we are dealing with a mentally ill individual, this whole point is totally irrelevant. Even if the truth is that this young woman was negligent in the care of her children, the Zionist authorities are not the ones to handle the problem in any way shape or form. Authentic Jewry has the resources to handle issues like these much more efficiently than the secular ones. We do not want their help nor will we allow their involvement in our lives. We will handle all of our affairs by our own means and ways while they should continue wasting their time controlling drugs and crime among the lowlife youths.

I would like to point out one aspect of this battle which is very important. That being the absolute wickedness of the piece of garbage called The Jerusalem Post. Again, The Jerusalem post has shown its true ugly face as an ANTI Jewish media organ.

SOURCE: I personally got to know many reporters and employers of the Jerusalem post via a business project I was involved in some years ago. I can tell you first hand that they are the scum of the earth.

If you support this terrible, evil newspaper in anyway you are aligned with the enemies of Hashem.

Hashem should protect us all from anti-Jewish ideas and people!

Another Terrible Holocaust

2009-07-17T01:43:00.000+03:00

How many innocent Jewish children were killed by Hitler because of the sins of that generation?

[SOURCE: The Midrash sais in many places that small children are taken out of this world because their parents and others are not loyal to Hashem, so all those who think they know better about the ways of Hashem should hold their peace]

It was probably between 1-1.5 million. Think about those children who could have grown up and had themselves many more Jewish children. This can really break even the hardest heart. We all morn greatly for these pure souls.

See an amazing video clip about the Jewish children we lost.

However we must not forget that as of this date approximately one and a half million Jewish children have been slaughtered via abortions in hospitals in the Zionist State.

All these precious souls cry out for revenge against the cruel Zionist doctors that didn’t give them a chance to live a fulfilling life and have offspring themselves.

Yes we must face it that the Zionists have killed more Jewish children than the Nazis.

May Hashem Yisborach revenge their blood with all his Holy Wrath!

But, however horrific these two Holocausts are, they come no where near the spiritual mass-murder of the Jewish people, old and young by the Zionist State. Many, many millions have been ripped away from Authentic Judaism, some by brute force and most through coercion.

SOURCE: Our Sages teach us that causing a fellow Jew to sin is worse than murdering him.

The Zionist State which dares to call itself “Israel” has brought much, much more destruction upon the Jewish people than any gentile nation ever has.

All those who feel any loyalty to the Zionist State must take a hard look in the mirror and realize, finally, that they are actually loyal to one of the greatest enemies of Hashem and His people that ever existed.

What Real Tznius is All About

2009-06-25T23:39:00.001+03:00

Be warned, you are most probably not going to like this post!

In almost every Authentic Jewish community there are outcries about the lack of Tznius and Kedushah in the clothing that Jewish daughters and women are becoming more and more accustomed to. We wish these blessed Jews who invest so much to keep non-authentic Jewish styles far away from our holy tents, the utmost of success. However, there is a major point about tznius being almost totally overlooked these days.

While the rules of clothing are very important, that’s still what real tznius is all about. Real Tznius for ladies is simply one thing: Staying at home, out of sight, as much as possible. Not leaving the house, only for the most important of reasons, is what real tznius for ladies is all about. The more a girl or women stays home the more Tznuah we can call her, and the more righteous she is considered.

The RAMBAM sais that a husband should let his wife out of the house only once or twice in a month’s time.

All Authentic Jewish households should train and educate their girls and women the great importance of this concept. That they should heavily way the importance of any event which tries to pull her out of the house, even it is for a Dvar Mitzvah.

“Where is Sarah your wife? Behold she is inside the tent!”

Let us emulate the great ways of our ancestors and not the disgusting ways of the Goim and those who try to imitate them.

The Authentic Am-Yisroel

Authentic Judaism Main Blog

Did you know that Solomon Schechter, the founder of the Jewish Theological Cemetery, believed in a people of Israel made up of all religious ideologies which he called “The Catholic Israel”? (Afar LePumey!). Well, if that isn’t revealing, hey man, nothing is.

We know all too well what became of Schechter’s “Israel” - at his Rabbinic institution, which now ordains women “Rabbis” as well as gays and other lowlifes. (I heard one of their first gay graduates formed a congregation on the lower west side of Manhattan called “Gay Avek” with its own private cemetery named “Gay in Der Ert”).

Well enough of false and retarded definitions of the Jewish people. Now let us harkon to the poetic words of that great Authentic Jewish Historian, Rabbi Isaac HaLevi Rabinovitz ZATZAL (Author of the famous historical work “Doros HaRishonim” and one of the founders of the Agudas Yisroel organization, friend and confidant of the Great Reb Chaim Brisker ZATZAL):

Only G-D fearing Jews are members of the People of Israel. They alone and only they. Because G-D and the Torah and The People of Israel are one entity. Even if Heaven forbid, there would remain in the world only ten G-D fearing Jews, one small Minyan, , that group, and that group alone is “Am Yisroel”. Even if they were isolated in some far-away wilderness, that is the Holy Dwelling place of Klal Yisroel!

We plan to present more quotes from this great Authentic Rabbinical Authority in future, G-D willing.

The Cure to America’s Economic Woes

We are all suffering from the great recession in the US today. Much money which was fine people worked very hard for has gone down the drain. Each politician is sure he has the magical solution to the myriad of problems the economy faces. However while quick fixes like stimulus packages might work in the near future, the genius is to produce a solution which will not boomerang 20 years from now.

As usual the and answer is simple and short and of course in the Torah. Listen to this snippet from Rabbi Avigdor Miller responding to a question why America was graced with such wealth and you will understand. It’s all about the penny.

Three Steps to Becoming a Real Holy Jew

2009-06-18T17:16:00.002+03:00

Main Authentic Judaism Blog

Did you know that you can become a real holy Jew in three [easy] steps?

[I can guarantee you it was worth crawling over here on your back to hear this]

(Not holy like the singer Shlomo Carelbach used to call all Jews “Holy”. This is Epikorsus. Not all Jews are holy, whether you like it or not. Yes, there are holy Jews, but then there are also non-holy Jews. There are righteous Jews and wicked Jews. However, all Jews have the potential to be Holy as Moshe Rabeinu or as wicked as Yeravem ben Nevat.)

Here’s how:

Step 1) Find yourself an Authentic Torah Idea.

This is so, so easy. Just open a sefer, be it Mishlei or Tehillim or a siddur, or whatever. Let’s take, for example the first pasuk of Tehillim:

אשרי האיש אשר לא הלך בעצת רשעים ובדרך חטאים לא עמד

“How Happy is the Man who has not Walked in the Council of the Wicked etc.” As we said this could be any authentic Jewish idea.

Step 2) Understand it well. Make sure this no unclear or ambiguous side to it. If necessary, look in the Mefarshim to better understand it. Get it down CLEAR.

Step 3) Every day for 5 minutes THINK ABOUT THIS IDEA. Concentrate on it. Reflect on it. Do this in a quiet place or when you will not be interrupted. Just lock it in your mind for five minutes a day.

You are now on you way to becoming a truly Holy Jew. You will start feeling the results after 3 or four days. Try it and see for yourself!

We all know to well how many people are on anti-depressants. It’s common knowledge today. People are depressed. Afraid. Gloomy.

An authentic Jew cannot be gloomy or down. It’s simply impossible. If he is indeed so, it is only to the degree which he has failed to integrate the great authentic Torah values that Chazal have taught us.

If a person really comprehended what Chazal teach us that “How wonderful is man who was created and informed that he was created in the image of Hashem”, could he be gloomy?

Hashem has bestowed upon us so many kindlinesses that if we would talk about them day and night for an entire life, it wouldn’t be sufficient.

Next time the washing machine breaks, or your iPod is dead, just think for a second… I am alive! I can see! and you will see how fast you will forget about your minor misfortunes.

This subject takes up books of teachings, but our intention here is to keep things really short!

Do yourself a real favor and go out and buy some books by Rabbi Avigdor Miller ZAL and you will get an instant spiritual pick-me-up!

This week I needed to drop in on a friend in the Old City of Jerusalem. I love the old city. I walk through its alleyways imagining that maybe, on this very place walked Hillel HaZaken or maybe R’ Yochanan Ben Zakai. I dream about the Holy Beis Mamikdash and all the great Torah schools that was one Yerushalayim’s glory and will IYH soon return.

Well this week as I entered the Old City (I try to avoid going during the day because of the following reasons) in the evening I was appalled to see it packed with indecently dressed tourists and chilonim. The municipality was running some sort of “lights festival” whereby the museums and restaurants are open at night to attract visitors to the old city. It was absolutely disgusting. Men and woman, their bodies barely covered, walking around like Yerushalyaim was Atlantic City. They have no sense of respect for the Kedushah of the Holy city.

Jerusalem is truly occupied by the Zionists and is being defiled daily by them. They are willing to keep museums and stores open late at night in order to draw chilonim to these holy places. Yershalyaim is still in deep exile.

We pray for the day when Hashem will do away with these wicked occupiers and restore his Holy presence to Tzion!

What’s Wrong with a Little Philosophy, Anyway? (Part 2)

2009-06-08T23:52:00.001+03:00

There is another great danger in studying philosophy, that being the development of a mindset that can really be considered a sort of mental illness. It’s a way of looking at the world without any bit of common sense. That everything “can” be doubted. Everything is relative, nothing is absolute. This is indeed the hallmark of a sick mind.

Dr. Richard Dawkins, one of the Popes of Modern Atheism, says regarding how we should not be overwhelmed by the plan and purpose that is intuitively evident in all parts of life:

“…even if a statue…. waved to them, they should not conclude that they had witnessed a miracle…”

In other words: go-ahead, believe in farfetched things! There is nothing wrong with being irrational.

[I wonder, however, how Dawkins would respond if that same statue not only waved at him, but actually called him and said “Hey Dawkins, come over here!” Would he spontaneously respond by approaching the statue, suddenly forgetting his theory about such events, or maybe he would simply continue walking on as if nothing unordinary had happened. But I am sure that if the statue hit him over the head with a hammer screaming “You wicked man, go to hell” he would indeed take it seriously and file a report and not just ascribe it to some quirk in the statue’s atoms.]

A real big Apikorus once said to this blogger that he indeed believes the Torah is of divine origin, however that in no way requires him to heed its word. Man can, so to say, disagree with G-D. [Afar LPumei]. I cannot even contemplate what to reply to such insanity.

R’ Yiroel Salanter used to say the first Mitzvah of the entire Torah is “Don’t be an idiot”.

The Holiest Place on Earth to The Jewish People

2009-05-28T17:08:00.001+03:00

We are now very close to the Yom Tov of Shavuos. There is so much we could write regarding this special day that it is hard to find a starting point. However I think this insight is timely:

It is a major custom of many Jews here in Jerusalem to go Shavuos morning to the Western Wall. The Western Wall of the Temple Mount has been come to be called by many “The Holiest Place on Earth to the Jewish People”. This statement is absolutely false and even extremely misleading.

The Holiness of where Jews pray near to the Wall is the same holiness of all of Jerusalem that is approximately within the old-city walls. Yes, they are close the Makom Hashechina, but still only close.

The holiest place on Hahsem’s earth isn’t really a “place” at all. The holiest realm in this world is the mind and soul of every Jew. That being the case, when a Jew defiles his holy soul with unclean thoughts or non-authentic Jewish ideas, he is destroying a much holier place than the Holy of Holies itself.

The true Holy sanctuaries of Klall Yisroel are the houses of study and prayer that follow the teachings of Authentic Jewry. On every bench, beside every Gemara, where an authentic Jew is studying authentic Torah, is holier than any other place in the entire universe.

From the day the Holy Temple was destroyed Hashem is only interested in the Four cubits of Halacha! (Brachos 8a)!!!

So you don’t have to go to the Kosel on Shavuos to find holiness, you just have to open a Gemarah and start studying and the Holy Shechina is right there with you!

So What’s Wrong with a Little Bit of Philosophy?

2009-05-25T18:37:00.002+03:00

It is very important that any Authentic Jew distance himself from studying Philosophy in any way, shape or form. What is Philosophy anyway? Philosophy really boils down to: the attempt to answer the important and imperative questions of life using man’s ability to distinguish between truth an non-truth. All other rosy and wordy explanations about philosophy are just that – lip service, but the simple truth is what we have setout herein.

Well, that being the fact, we can quickly and intuitively understand why philosophy does not belong anywhere near an Authentic Jew. All the important questions about life have been explained and answered by Hashem Himself in the Holy Torah. So we already possess the absolute truths about anything and everything that is in anyway important to our existence. So who in their right mind would put these great and absolute ideas aside and go looking for answers using his own juvenile thinking process and intuitions.

Could any disgrace be greater than, after possessing Hashem’s absolute truth, which we received directly from Him, being set aside to go looking for it in Aristotle, Kant, Niche or any other members of this club of lowlifes?

If you should ask: weren’t there great Rabbi’s over the generations who indeed studied philosophy, please view upcoming posts regarding the phenomena.

But rest be assured that our generation has nothing to gain and everything to lose by studying the foul smelling opinions or methods of any type of “philosophy”.

Can Authentic Yeshivos Teach Shakespeare?

2009-05-18T22:45:00.003+03:00

Well, to put it short and sweet, ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Without going into the issue of whether it is permitted at all to teach secular studies in the format many Yeshivos do at present, we can surely say that any Authentic Yeshiva would intuitively ban Shakespeare from its curriculum. The plays and poems of this mentioned author are full of Epikorsus, violence and Gilui Arios.

It is unthinkable that any Authentic Torah Authority would permit teachers (usually themselves PRUSTA GOYIM) to infect our young souls, both boys and girls, with the filth of this writer.

Rabbi Avigdor Miller iterated again and again how all the GOIYHE literature is packed with indecency. Some of it subliminal, hidden between the lines, but most of it is blatant with no shame whatsoever.

The time has come for Authentic Jewish Parents to take a strong stand about what their children are being taught in “secular” studies in Yeshivos and Beis Yaakov. Don’t wait till the next PTA meeting. Forbid your child to enter these classes until they are cleaned out.

Authentic Judaism in America Loses Great General

2009-03-27T13:27:00.002+03:00

Yesterday, Rosh Chodesh Nissan Klal Yisroel received the bitter news that Rabbi Elya Svei, Rosh Yeshiva of the Talmudic Yeshiva of Philadelphia, was summoned to the Heavenly Yeshiva. Rabbi Svei was a Talmid of Rabbi Shlomo Heiman and Rabbi Aaron Kotler ZATZAL. Rabbi Svei was in his own right a Great Gadol in Torah and extremely devoted to his Talmidim and Jews everywhere.

Rabbi Svei was also a great fighter for Authentic Jewish Ideology in many avenues of American Jewry. Many who would like to have lead others astray were afraid of Rabbi Svei’s scrutiny. As long as he endured, even while ill as he was for the past few years, his presence in this world kept many in-check.

We, those who studied with, and learned from, him, proudly remember is refusal to appear at the main Sium HaShas for the Daf HaYomi until the “president” of YU was removed from the guest list. Even though we would have expected to see massive support from all Torah authorities in the US for this approach, Rabbi Svei stood firmly, almost totally alone, in this battle as he did in many other endeavors for the sake of Authentic Judaism. His memory is will forever be a blessing to Authentic Jews everywhere.

Our Greatest Struggle

2009-03-18T13:26:00.001+02:00

The worst thing that can happen to Klal Yisroel is the forgetting of Authentic Torah. The forgetting of Torah from the ranks of the Jewish people is the root of all evil. It is from this phenomenon that the wicked Amalek Root (as well as its branches, like Zionism and other non-authentic types of “Judaism”) lactates its power to continue its campaign against Hashem and His Torah. Also, almost all misconstrued Hashkofah have their root in the simple ignorance of true Torah ideology. How many prominent Talmidei Chamamim have left authentic Jewry for “something else”?

We must do everything in our power to battle against the forgetting of Torah. We have to teach our children that they must become extremely fluent in Gemara, Mussar and Halacha. Whether you end up a Great Gaon or a owner of a deli, you must be fluent in Gemara, Mussar and Halacha to be a full Authentic Jew.

The Authentic Jewish Outlook on “Rabbi” Avraham Yitzchak Kohen Kook

2009-02-28T23:47:00.001+02:00

It is nothing less than amazing that there still exists in some Jewish minds any iota of respect for one of the greatest enemies of Authentic Judaism: Avraham Yitzchak Kook, the first Chief Rabbi of the Zionist State. While it may have been somewhat difficult during his lifetime and shortly afterwards to correctly assess Kook’s true personality, however, today his reality is more than clear in all its true ugliness. In this time of age, with all his (sick) writings and (sick) opinions available for all to see, there is ZERO justification to in anyway appreciate or respect this enemy of Authentic Judaism. Therefore how futile is the attempt by various truth benders try to exhibit that this or that Torah authority had respect for Kook “back then”.

Even his most vehement enemies would be startled today by the anti authentic Jewish ideas that have come to light with the publication and circulation of his writings.

The time has come for all authentic Jews to realize that Kook was simply an enemy, a great enemy, of Judaism, like Mendelssohn Geiger, Weisel, and all the rest who are now burning in Gehinnom.

Some very good food for thought

What Exactly is “Bad” Weather?

2009-02-22T23:12:00.005+02:00

“And ELOKIM saw all that He had made and behold it was very good…”

Hashem obviously knew it was very good before He created it. And it follows that He knew it was all very good after it was created. So what does is this passage coming to teach us? Reb Avigdor Miller ZTZAL explains that this teaches us the we must emulate Hashem and look at all He has done and realize that it is all very good. This explanation has very far reaching ramifications. However, at least when Hashem gives us the great gift of rain we shouldn’t call it “bad weather” like the idiots do. Rain is life to this world, so why is a rainy day a term for a gloomy one. Rain is beautiful and wonderful.

Rain has another purpose which I understood this Shabbos, as Baruch Hashem it was pouring most of the Holy Day here in Jerusalem. Rain keeps the bums (as well as “bumeses”) off the streets. Usually, the Geulah area is packed with low personalities during Shabbos, making a Shabbos stroll in these areas very disconcerting. However, thanks to the rain, they were nowhere to be seen. Gadol Yom HaGshamim!

Extremism = Truth and Strength. Tolerance =Fallacy and Weakness.

2009-02-18T23:19:00.003+02:00

The Great Authentic Rabbi, The Chazon Ish, writes in one of his most beautiful letters, that KITZONIUS (literally extremism, but this translation fails to do justice to the real meaning of the word) and “truth” (authenticity) are synonyms. We would like to add to that that they are also real signs of strength.

Tolerance is the hallmark of weak character. If someone is tolerant of wicked, anti-authentic Jewish ideology, he is a weakling. Such a person has not reached the level of intellectual maturity to take a stand on absolute truth. His fervor for authenticity is just look warm, and can only be pitied for.

The pluralist is the true weakling and in no way should be respected or admired.

Yeshiva University – A Den of Iniquity

2009-02-15T23:41:00.007+02:00

While there are many who correctly abhor Yeshiva University, still the justification for this feeling is sometimes misconstrued. Yes, YU is a disgusting place because she tolerates homosexuals as well as other deranged personalities, however this is only a result of her real malignant cancer. The true problem with YU is that she tolerates, as well as promotes, anti-Authentic Jewish ideology. Everything else ugly at YU is only a result of this rotten nucleus. The fact that the head of YU for many years had the beautiful name “Soloveichik” makes no difference. Yitchak Avinu had a son Esav, and Esav was still Esav. Prof. JB Soloveichik was an enemy of authentic Judaism, regardless who is grandparents were.

Authenticity Makes the Whole Difference

2009-02-12T18:10:00.006+02:00

The world is divided into two basic groups: “Authentics” and impostors. There is the “real thing”, that great truth, and then there is just everything else. Impostors bear some superficial similarities to the “real thing” but they are only skin deep. The Authentic is real and true all the way down, all across the board. The authentic and impostor occupy two distinct levels of existence, two separate realms of reality. One is true, clear and consistent. The other is fake, counterfeit and always disappointing. The authentic will always endure and outlive the impostor, even though it may suffer some temporary pitfalls. The impostor and the fake are doomed to failure while they may enjoy some timely and short attention.

An authentic artifact, like a stamp or coin, is cherished and protected. Its owner is proud of its possession. A counterfeit is simply a cheap attempt to imitate the authentic by someone who is unable to achieve the later. Those who attempt to represent the fake as authentic, like counterfeiters, are prone to extreme punishment.

Torah (bound by the Halacha) Judaism is authentic Judaism. Torah Judaism is beautiful and fulfilling. Any other “type” of "Judaism" (such as Reform, Conservative, Reconstructionist, or “Modern” Orthodox or Zionism) are simply impostors just like Christianity and Islam.

We await the day when these and other forms of counterfeit Jewry will be exposed for what they really are, simply opium for the wandering Jewish conscience.

“ Prepare Yourself for The Real Big War”

2009-01-08T23:23:00.002+02:00

Yes, we all know there is a bloody war going on in the Gaza Strip. All Jewish life is precious. However we must always remember that there is a much greater war being waged: The war the Zionist State has declared against HASHEM and His Torah. CHAZAL teach us that someone who causes another Jew to sin is worse than having killed him. So do some simple math: How many Jews have been “slaughtered” by the State and how many by other anti-Semites?!

The Most Basic Authentic Jewish Idea

2009-01-06T17:14:00.000+02:00

The First and Last (and everything in between) and Most Important Authentic Jewish Idea is the fact that Hashem is our King and we were created solely for the purpose of doing His will.
