When Rosh Hashana Falls on Shabbat
E
21:36Eli WeberHOST
That question is so far above my pay grade.
E
21:39Eli WeberHOST
Meaning, you know, what's an Asmachta? What's an Asmachta? What's not an Asmachta?
J
21:46JoshUNKNOWN
I'll show you just the one thing.
J
21:48JoshUNKNOWN
I think I'll ask you a question.
08 RH Preparation – A Moment Of Clarity
Y
1:17Yaakov HarariHOST
Rosh Hashanah is a day that's Shabbaton, a Zichron Shua.
Y
1:22Yaakov HarariHOST
That means that the Apostle is telling us that on Shabbos, it's only a Zichron Shua, not a Yom Shua, or it's an Asmachta.
Y
1:31Yaakov HarariHOST
It means even though it was the Rabboni, but the Mesa, it's Asmachta from the Korah.
Y
1:37Yaakov HarariHOST
So the posseg is saying that on Shabbos you don't blow sheifer, but it's also saying that Shabbos itself is serving as the Zichron Shua, meaning that the Shabbos itself is a vehicle to bring what sheifer in general brings.
Y
1:53Yaakov HarariHOST
It's not just a petur or an isser to use a sheifer, it's achieving what a sheifer achieves.
Y
3:12Yaakov HarariHOST
Or maybe it's Meghareya if you have a shayfa.
Y
3:16Yaakov HarariHOST
Torah is Meghalic to us that we're doing without a shayfa.
Y
3:19Yaakov HarariHOST
Whether it's a Gareis or an Asmachta.
Rosh HaShanah: No Blowing Shofar on Shabbos
A
32:13Aryeh ShulmanHOST
It's not a Der Eise.
A
32:14Aryeh ShulmanHOST
And if it's not a Der Eise, so then all this whole business over here is just a Smachta, To tell you what? Asmachta can't itself come and be involved.
A
32:28Aryeh ShulmanHOST
But Asmachta can tell you, be careful.
A
32:31Aryeh ShulmanHOST
There's two different types of Asmachtas.
A
32:35Aryeh ShulmanHOST
Sometimes in Asmachta, where Hashem whispers, Asmachta, the way that Ritva explains it, Maral, and Bergola, is Asmachta is, unlike a mitzvah where Hashem speaks in a loud, clear voice, do the following.
A
32:49Aryeh ShulmanHOST
Asmachta is Hashem whispers to us, It would be very nice if only the following thing happened.
A
32:56Aryeh ShulmanHOST
It would be very nice.
A
32:57Aryeh ShulmanHOST
It's like a miracle.
L&L 137- See You Tomorrow?
Y
4:15Yitzchak ShifmanHOST
He does.
Y
4:18Yitzchak ShifmanHOST
continues the Midrash where do you know Avelut is seven days now it's very interesting Avelut seven days is really Midrabanan but it means where do you find an Asmachta a reference to this point in the
S
4:29speaker_3UNKNOWN
Torah where do we find a reference that
Y
4:33Yitzchak ShifmanHOST
there was a seven day seven day sadness or Avelut Abba Baravina says because you find by Yosef it says by Yosef that Yosef made for Yaakov so there's a concept now again it's not actually Midoraita but it's a reference in the Torah fine Shabbat is included in the seven.
Bikkurim 2.1-2.4
S
13:22speaker_0HOST
The one is supposed to separate a sixtieth of his produce, the first sixtieth which ripen, as bikurim.
S
13:28speaker_0HOST
So what does the Mishnah mean? That only Maisasheni and Truma have a fixed amount but not bikurim? So one answer given is that although the fixed amount for Truma is not midyabonon, there is nevertheless a hint in the Posuk, known as an Asmachta, which is sort of a hint in the Posuk for a Midyabonon law, which they found after making the Rabbinic law.
S
13:47speaker_0HOST
And therefore at least there is some basis for that fixed amount in the Torah.
S
13:51speaker_0HOST
Whereas when it comes to Bekurim, there is no fixed amount in the Torah, and therefore it is not similar to Mais Hasheni, whereas Trimah is at least slightly similar to Mais Hasheni, in that it has a hint in the Torah for its fixed amount.
Chelek 29, Rosh hashana - Vov Tishrei, Iyun
D
13:07Dov HermanHOST
That's why the Rebbe, by the way, says, Because an asmachta is actually a machoikas, if you can learn it out front.
D
13:14Dov HermanHOST
It's not an asmachta, it's a gila milsuk en asmachta.
D
13:17Dov HermanHOST
Asmachta means an actual source.
D
13:19Dov HermanHOST
Even a gila milsuk is just revealing.
D
13:21Dov HermanHOST
By revealing what the pshat is, that's a support for what the chavim are telling us.
Shabbos Shiur Pesicha - Av Melachos, Middos SheHaTorah Nidreshes Bahen, Parts of Torah SheBaal Peh, Havaraos Arbah Amos (73a)
H
2:29Hershel SchachterHOST
He has a lot of good things to say.
H
2:31Hershel SchachterHOST
So Preh Yeshua says that this is clearly not the marker, this is only an Asmachta.
H
2:37Hershel SchachterHOST
And he quotes the Gemara in Nazir in the first paragraph, the person says, it can't be a Nazir for less than 30 days.
H
2:47Hershel SchachterHOST
And if he doesn't say how many days, We say, I didn't know that there's such a din.
9 MINS LATER
H
11:57Hershel SchachterHOST
But the Gemara seems to assume that there are 39, so that's what the Yifay 9 raises the issue.
H
12:03Hershel SchachterHOST
So remember when I was in elementary school, one week the Rebbe wasn't well, so he had, he got a friend of his substituted, so the substitute was Rabbi Gedinger, he used to be a big Tamachachem, they had learned the L'chaim Belin together, so they were friendly, so Rabbi Gedinger published a whole Vatera about this, where he shows that there are three Shitas in the Rishonim about this, which are the Malachot Malachot Malachot, which are the 39 Shitas, and which are the ones that they decided not to count, and which they decided that they should count.
H
12:39Hershel SchachterHOST
So again, so the Gemara has one marker for the 39, is the Gematria, and the Pneu Yeshua said that's only an Asmachta.
H
12:46Hershel SchachterHOST
And then there's another...
Daily Mitzvah, Day 210: Purification from Tzaraat
M
5:04Mendel KaplanHOST
That doesn't make perfect sense.
M
5:06Mendel KaplanHOST
It's an Asmachta.
M
5:08Mendel KaplanHOST
We have this old tradition that the Keres has to be brand new.
M
5:11Mendel KaplanHOST
And you should know that it actually fits into the framework where everything here is going to be used for the first time.
Parshas Ki Tavo
L
21:23Leibish HundertHOST
Ritva asks, I don't have it open here, but it would have been actually two of her Ritvas.
L
21:28Leibish HundertHOST
Anyway, he asks, What is it when we say that there's an Asmachta, right? Because they brought some Pesukim, right? They didn't bring Pesukim here, right here.
L
21:40Leibish HundertHOST
But the Gemara later on brings Pesukim that are related to Malchia, Zichronos, and Shai Fris.
L
21:45Leibish HundertHOST
Later on.
L
23:05Leibish HundertHOST
And in any case, I'm sorry, I don't have it all open right now.
L
23:08Leibish HundertHOST
I'm not going to find it.
L
23:10Leibish HundertHOST
What is the relationship to the verses that sound, that the Chazal say, from there they learned, from there the sages learned, that you should say these groups of 10 verses? Is it learned from those verses? Is it not? And there are many mitzvahs that are connected to a verse in the Torah, and the Gemara calls it an Asmachta.
L
23:31Leibish HundertHOST
So what is an Asmachta? The smachta means it's leaning on the verses.
Rambam: Parah Adumah Chapter 8, 9, 10
A
66:42Avraham ZajacHOST
You can have it on these sticks, and then if it's on a stick, is it in front of you or behind you? The Chachamim, Midrabanan, did not want you to put it behind you.
A
66:51Avraham ZajacHOST
because it says, that they have the utmost level of Shemira, only then are they, and if not, it's, so I know we're quoting a Pasik, it's only an Asmachta, it's a Pso Medra Bonan, says the Rambam, if you have two barrels, it's a type of stick, that you can only put two barrels, one on the front, one on the back, so we're not going to say you can't put it on the back, Now.
A
67:12Avraham ZajacHOST
Now.
A
67:37Avraham ZajacHOST
we're speaking about, you know, the real Moiznayim weights.
