Maimonides Minute – The Prophet and the Fortune Teller – Hilchot Yesodei HaTorah 10:3

February 21, 2017 8:54 am

A prophet’s primary role, apart from warning the people to keep G-d’s laws, is to predict the future. In that case, how is a prophet different from a fortune teller? Is there a way to distinguish between them?

Saying that David Ortiz changed the culture in Boston might be a slight overstatement.
But only slight.
Anyone who grew up Before Ortiz knows that the city is a different place, with a radically better self image, than After Ortiz.
Ortiz, Brady and Belichick, city planners.

Palestinian protesters from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign in London a few days ago.

It looks like they’re really focused on improving lives for Palestinians and not just demonizing and attacking Jews! Oh wait…🙄

What is the history of "Daas Torah" (the notion that great Torah scholars have exceptional insight that should or must be heeded in areas outside of Torah)?

I know that football experts have been asked this ad nauseam, but still:
According to the defenders of OT in the NFL, what is the logic/fairness of allowing one team to score a TD and not giving the other team a chance?

If you didn’t like this game you don’t like sports. Long-suffering Bills fans to spend offseason wondering why Buffalo didn’t squib kick. Would burn 4-5 seconds, force KC to go straight to Hail Mary rather than position for a FG & OT. https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/jason-wolf-bills-were-13-seconds-away-from-hosting-afc-title-game-but-couldnt-stop/article_36d323a4-7cc3-11ec-90c0-a368152ff3af.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=user-share via @TheBuffaloNews
