9/9/2026 - Dovid Marmurstein / Hallel on Yomim Noraim

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
The Gemara Rosh Hashanah tells us that we do not say Hallel on Sukeshira, Rosh Hashanah, or Yom Kippur.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
The Malachim came to Hashem and they asked, why is it that Klal Yisrael is not singing Hallel on Rosh Hashanah, on Yom Kippur? And Hashem said, is it possible that the Malachim yoshev al kise din, the sifrei chaim and sifrei meisim, the pesukim that are open in front of him? How could it be that he's a yom hadin that doesn't pass for Hallel? It seems from here that the pashtus is why we can't say Hallel on Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur is there's a aimless hadin and we don't sing.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
So the sugiah of Hallel, I understand, is a very big sugiah of Hallel on Rosh Hashanah.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
In L'David, we've been saying twice a day now, and we're going to continue to say, Be'ez HaShem, David HaMelech starts off expressing that he has Ochamah, he has Tzoroth, and enemies around him.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
He says at the end of the third Pesach, Be'zeis Ani Beiteach, what is he Beiteach in? So the next Pesach says, Acha Sha'altim Es HaShem, Es HaVakesh, the well-known Pesach, What shaites does that have with his bitachon that I have a ratzot to sit in the base managers, the base amikdosh, so therefore I'm beteach that Hashem is going to save me from my enemies.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
The Moshe Far Shimon, the Pasek, say that b'zoi seme teach is not going on the request of achashalti, even though that's the upcoming Pasek, but rather it's going back on when David HaMalik was saying with David Hashem, that Hashem is going to save him because of the values of Hashem so it's not that he's in his request to rather he's in Hashem Hashem is going to save him from his enemies and that's why he's secure he's not scared from war however the next passage is a new request um it's a little bit hard to read where this request is coming from.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
So, the Eben Ezra actually brings that there's a Yesh Ayimrim, let's say, David Melech's betafen is going on the upcoming request of Achal Shalti.

Dovid MarmursteinGUEST
David Melech has a lot of sorrows around him, but in the following, I am secure that I'm not going to be fearful from these enemies because I have a Ratzin to sit in the Weisbein Rish.
