Why do some Jewish groups wear a uniform? What is the source that wearing all white causes haughtiness? |

Halachic extension of the Giving of the Torah and marriage analogy My understanding (no source, sorry) is that even if a rapist's wife commits adultery, he is not permitted to divorce her. |

When did the Kanievsky family switch from Chasidic to Litvish? @SethJ in what way does common knowledge answer this specific question? |

When did the Kanievsky family switch from Chasidic to Litvish? @DoubleAA if you have a source that the basis for the switch was to return to the older minhag, by all means bring it. That would certainly be a possible answer. |

What is the meaning of this painting? The sheep is saying "baa". I can't even tell what the top rightmost letter is supposed to be. I would guess that this was not written by one familiar with Hebrew |

May one make a siyum on a day he is fasting? If one can make a siyum on taanis bechorim wouldn't it be kal v'chomer that one could do it on a personal fast? |

Why are there so many made-up stories about rebbes? Why does the Gemara employ the moshul as an explanatory method? |

Source? The day you were born was the day Gd decided the universe could no longer exist without you It is Rebbe Nachman of Breslev zy'a, from an oral tradition. I'll try to find if it's written somewhere. It is most likely in connection with Likutey Moharan I 5, which is based on the Mishnah @AvrohomYitzchok brings below. |
