Talk about not a word out of place, that’s a fascinating thing about your lectures, never a dull moment. So well put together and interesting throughout.
Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words and for being a public subscriber!
I want to suggest to all to read the Ramhal...its a great blessing!
you remain my favorite lecturer in the kingdom of CZcamsystan, at once ever instructing and ever entertaining, always informing and and always delighting. In short you are utterly delightful
High praise! Thanks.
Wow, I really admire your work an RAMJAL's works. Shalom.
Thank you so much!
thank you so much for this historical perspective.
I'm glad that you enjoyed the lecture!
It was hard for me to believe in Magidim (angels), but once i started reading his books its hard for me to believe that a "human" wrote that.
Thats exactly what I was thinking when I read his works!
Thank you for sharing such wisdom. Recently I purchased an English/Hebrew edition of this book. I look forward to reading this. Your videos are always enjoyable and help me understand Judaism more. BH for you.
Hello Gideon
Do you know what is the English name of this book.
I would love to read it.
Thank you!
Another great lecture! Thanks!
You said that the Dutch gave the land back to Portugal as a part of a treaty. While that's true, the Dutches also lost a war against Brazilians, who were furious by their presence and were united against them in a way that rarely happens in Brazil.
By rarely, I mean that freed slaves and natives of South America united with the Portuguese also fought the Dutches.
I hope you find that interesting.
That is interesting
That's the Jewish idea of immortality, to be remembered by the sefer you wrote.
So true
Great lecture. A lot of fascinating historical info. One comment, if I may add it, regarding the dialog version of mesilat yesharim...a large number of his works fall into a 3 fold style of a) short "notes" version, b) standard version, c) conversation/vikuach version. So, I'm not sure that he "scratched" the conversation version. It was probably just part of the publishing selection process (perhaps partially for the reason you referred to). Ultimately, publishers select and edit all the time, due to both monetary consideration and protection of the one whose works they are publishing (and protection of themselves).
Please do the Mesillat Yesharim lectures!
lol, the names have been changed (or deleted) to protect the innocent...another great history lesson !
Dr. Abrahamson any chance you could send a link to the dissertation that your reference during the lecture?
It's on Academia, look for David Sclar
This was an amazing lecture Dr. Abramson. Thank you!
Are you giving any live lectures anytime soon?
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
That "Chicken Scratch," @27:55 looks like "Yehezkeil Lo," on the bottom. 🤣
Where can I find a copy of the original 1738 dialogue?
At your local Judaica store
00:40:45 Wow ! People (local orthodox rabbis) should search for this treasure actively !
They do!
Please could you consider doing a talk about Mendelssohn’s grandfather one day ?
Maybr
Well his book Mesilat Yesharim is really good... To err is human?
He never erred...our rabbis at his time erred...
As written "The generation was not worthy to understand Ramhal...
6:11 sorry what do you say here, “read it like a long atlantic essay”? It sounds interesting.
The Atlantic magazine
Who recorded these comments from the GRA about the mesilas yesharim?
Not sure
Oh sweet sweet vengeance...
I suspect you're about the same age of myself which is funny because I want to grow up to be like you.
I am Yaakov Labe
Me too
Did he do anything wrong?
