Nachi GordonHOST
You mean they're just, you just, they're just, every feeling you have has to be validated?
Charlie HarariGUEST
Yeah, y- and, and so therapists that go in that aren't holding in mussar, in, in mesorah, forget just that they, that they're Frum people.
Charlie HarariGUEST
They're not holding in Hashkafahs if they're being taught secular therapy, and they're giving it over to somebody.
Nachi GordonHOST
Right.
Charlie HarariGUEST
Especially if they're Frum themselves.
Charlie HarariGUEST
They could be giving over a Hashkafa.
Charlie HarariGUEST
So now, if someone's in tremendous, uh, stress, if someone's in acute pain, okay.
Yossi KamenHOST
But it sounds like you were living amongst Lubavitchers, so she was okay with that also, and your parents were...
Zushe WinnerGUEST
First of all, when we moved to Crown Heights, there were not many Frum people around us.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
And actually, my mother was not very happy.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
About living in Crown Heights.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
About moving to Crown Heights.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
That part of Crown Heights was very not Jewish.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
Not Frum.
Zushe WinnerGUEST
Not Frum.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
The same Mishpacha as the Ramchal.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
Uh, absolutely a Frum person, Shomer mitzvos all of his life.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
[coughs] But his Peirush which has very, very recently been, uh, translated in English, very recently, is, um, very, very interesting, a bit controversial.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
It's a little very much off the beaten track.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
Uh, but as I say, it's important to know that he, he was a Frum religious, a Torah-observant Jew, uh, all of his life.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
Uh, and as I say, he has interesting points.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
Even this little point about what Machshava means.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
Chesed, if it's too much, even in relationships, right? As we mentioned, incest is called chesed because that's like chesed without boundaries, right? Even in the United States of America, if you take a look at the Jewish formation, the Jewish communities in America, the first wave of the Jews that came to America in the 1800s, aside from the Sephardim who came the earliest, the first shul after 300 years, still is operational in downtown Philadelphia, I think it's...
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
As far as I remember, the first one, and they stayed kind of like traditionally Frum throughout the generations because that's just who we are.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
But the Europeans who came, the first wave of the immigration was in the 1800s.
Shlomo YisraeliHOST
And these were Germany Jews who were wealthy and very sophisticated and not as religious necessarily.
Rabbi KrazHOST
There was no, no local apples.
Rabbi KrazHOST
So a few of the chevre who weren't Frum, but apples and honey, we are not going to miss.
Rabbi KrazHOST
They flew, I think it was here to Florida, to get apples, to bring back loads and cases of apples back to Venezuela so the Yidden are going to have their apple and honey.
Rabbi KrazHOST
So you see the power of a minhag, the power of a minhag.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
I'm sorry we're stalling here, um, or taking a longer time.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
Um, but the, there is a Frum gut instinct to reject, um, non-Masoretic versions of Tanakh, and I think probably the Frum instinct comes from the fact that the Masoretic one's the one that we rely on for everything, and the fact that these are talked about by non-Jewish, um, uh, you know, uh, or, or non, or secular academics, right? But you have to remember that the reason why they call these things textual witnesses is because, for example, the, the, the Septuagint was written at a time and based on versions of the Tanakh that existed prior to the finalization of the Masoretic text by the Tiberian Soferim in the 8th, 8th century, 9th century, whatever.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
Um, and so it, so the Targum HaShivim, even if we disagree with like, you know, who translated it or whatever, it saw earlier versions of Tanakh and therefore, uh...
Matt SchneeweissHOST
And again, same thing with these other, these other texts.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
And by the way, the, the Targum on Mishlei, which is not Targum on Galus, is also an early textual witness, and we've seen this a lot.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
My favorite ex- favorite examples are the Masoretic text will, will read an Ayin Mem as Im, and then we'll see that the Targum is clearly translating it as Uma, as Am, you know? And so, so my po- my personal policy with these other texts is I think they are worth looking at, and you can be a Frum Jew and hold that the one that's binding is the Masoretic text, but recognize that there still is important data to be considered from these, uh, these witnesses.
Matt SchneeweissHOST
Yeah.
speaker_6UNKNOWN
Just to like [pauses] a little bit, the Gemara had a different...
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
Nechama Leibowitz was a religious woman.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
She was a Frum woman.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
And she was also a world-famous scholar of Tanakh, Chumash Mepharshim.
Yitzchak BreitowitzHOST
And obviously...
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
Of course.
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
And what was interesting about being raised by a Hungarian family, not Frum, well, I'll tell you, I'm attracted to Hungarian schools like Satmir and...
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
Wow.
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
And where I daven in Yerushalayim and Maasharim and the...

Joe FarkasHOST
as a child.
Joe FarkasHOST
The behavior, there was a defined behavior there? As a child, I,
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
you know, the Frumkin community, they raised their sons to kick, kick, kick, nicht.
Yom Tov GlaserGUEST
Don't look at women.
Aryeh GanzHOST
Talking about cuts, I'll just say a cute thing I saw from, I think it's a famous thing, from he says that the three midas that are good, but only when they're together in one person.
Aryeh GanzHOST
He says there's Gut, Frum, and Klug.
Aryeh GanzHOST
Someone who's Gut by himself, someone who's a good person by himself, he can come to Neof.
Aryeh GanzHOST
If he's Frum, he can come to Achzarius.
Aryeh GanzHOST
And if he's only Klug, he can come to Apikarsus.
Aryeh GanzHOST
But together, they're Gevaldek.
Aryeh GanzHOST
He's Gut and Frum and Klug, and he says that's Nirmal's in the Pasuk, and Eichat Toiv Yachol, V'Dumam L'shuas Hashem.
Aryeh GanzHOST
Toiv is Gut, Yachol is Frum, V'Dumam is Klug, and K'siag L'chach M'shikav, Oz K'dai L'shuas Hashem.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
You know, um, I think that when I learned this concept that in --you don't need to fit in in order to belong, and growing up as a child on Shlichus, which means that I was part of the Chabad movement, where my parents moved to Berkeley, California.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
So here I am, a Frum kid in Bezerkly, and, you know, I'm not, I'm not complaining that I have to keep Taryim Mitzvahs, but it's where I have to do it, and I'm the only one in certain instances.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
And then we move to New Mexico.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
So there's this existential feeling of not being rooted and not seeing your kind all around you.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
And then, and then when we finally moved to a Frum community, you know, I write in the book that it felt like Mashiach had come for me.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
Like, this was it.
Dena SchustermanGUEST
This was the ingathering of the exiles.
