When does one stay up all night? I think the artscoll biography of R'Yakov Kaminetsky mentions how in Europe they used to stay up Friday night learning. In fact, they would make shacharis later to allow the people staying up more time to learn! |

Existence of Heaven and Hell I don't always remember exactly where I saw something, so I follow the Rambam's derech. |

Why do people frequently change tunes toward the end of Lecha Dodi? I don;t think every little detail of Jewish practice has to have a deep reason. Its clearly just for variety. |

God's Pair of Teffilin I'm not sure why the opinion of a single medieval scholar is relevant. He is outside the mainstream of Judaism. He even called R'Sadya Gaon a kofer for not being a corporealist! |

Yichud in Elevator That doesn't happen very frequently. I don't think you need to worry about such remote possibilities in halacha. |
