Dear Parents ‫עמו"ש‬, ‫פרשת וארא‬

Great learning rings from every corner and despite the fluctuating 4:23 ‫זמן הדלקת נרות‬

room was magically transformed into a festive wonderland as the OUR PRE-SCHOOL
“Building our children’s future” theme was creatively displayed. Thank BRUNCH – WHAT A

Lessons From the Parsha…

By: HaRav Yitzchok Steinberg

)‫ כ"ב‬.‫ַו ֹיּא ֶמר ֹמ ֶשׁה ֹלא ָנכוֹן ַל ֲעשׂוֹת ֵכּן ִכּי תּוֹ ֲע ַבת ִמ ְצַרִים ִנ ְז ַבּח ַלה' ֱאֹל ֵקינוּ" (ח‬
"It is improper to do that, for we will sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Hashem”

The ‫ אבן עזרא‬explains why the Mitzriyim would be disgusted by their Korbonos: They were devout
vegetarians! Not only would they not eat anything coming from a live animal, they could not even tolerate
witnessing others doing so.

Rav Yaakov Yosef, known originally as the Vilna Magid, and later on as the Rav HaKolel of New York, noted:
The Mitzriyim portrayed themselves as being kind and merciful, establishing laws to protect the weak and the
helpless. They thus showed special sympathy for the lamb, which is so powerless that it doesn’t even have horns
with which to protect itself. How seemingly compassionate! Yet it was these very Mitzriyim that for years killed and
tortured Klal Yisroel! We’ve heard such stories as well about how compassionate the Nazi’s, ‫ימח שמם וזכרם‬, were to
dogs. Yet we are well aware of their heinous behavior towards yidden. How could this be?

What is evident here, Rav Yaakov Yosef explained, is that Midos that are not based on Torah and Yiras
Shomayim are defective and perverse. That explains how they could be so protective of the rights of animals, yet
so depraved in their dealings with human beings.

‫שבע‬-‫לזכות רפואה שלימה חי' מלכה בת בת‬

If one of the following items became detached: a sliding door fell off its hinges, a window screen fell off the window, a
floor drain cover became dislodged, or a Mezuzah case fell off the doorpost, may they be replaced?
It is prohibited to replace these items. Moreover, any other item attached to the house that has broken off may not be replaced,
and all of the above are Muktze. A Mezuzah case that fell off may be picked up from the floor to prevent bizayon of the
Mezuzah.
Is it permissible to replace any of the following items if they fell from their usual place: vertical blinds, a rod with a
shower curtain hanging on it, a child safety stair gate that remains regularly in its position?
According to many Poskim, these items are not considered part of the house and it is therefore permitted to affix these house
accessories. However, since some Poskim prohibit this, it is preferable to avoid both removing and affixing these items on
Shabbos if it is not necessary.
However, a child safety gate that is positioned and removed regularly, as well as a bathroom tissue rack that is regularly
moved, may be removed and re-affixed.
Is it permissible to remove or replace a closet shelf, a drawer, or a house towel rack (that is not regularly removed from
its holder)?
It is not permissible to remove or replace these items.
Is it permissible replace or tighten an air conditioning vent? Is it permissible to replace or reposition a ceiling tile or
spot light?
One should not replace an air conditioning vent that became displaced. Similarly, one should not reposition an air conditioning
vent that became loose, or to tighten a loose screw.
A ceiling tile or plastic tile beneath a light bulb should not be replaced if it came out of its frame. Loose spot lights should
similarly not be pushed or repositioned.
Is it permissible to remove or replace a picture or painting from a wall?
It is permissible to remove or replace a picture on a wall if the picture is hanging on the wall but is not attached to it. Note,
however, that if one is careful that the picture is not handled to prevent anyone from tampering with it, then it is considered
Muktze (Machmas Chisaron Kis).
