Rosh HaShanna


https://www.sefaria.org/Mishneh_Torah,_Repentance.3.3nyone who changes his mind about the mitzvot he has performed and regrets the merits [he has earned], saying in his heart: "What value was there in doing them? I wish I hadn't performed them" - loses them all and no merit is preserved for him at all as [Ezekiel 33:12] states "The righteousness of the upright will not save him on the day of his transgression." This only applies to one who regrets his previous [deeds].Just as a person's merits and sins are weighed at the time of his death, so, too, the sins of every inhabitant of the world together with his merits are weighed on the festival of Rosh HaShanah. If one is found righteous, his [verdict] is sealed for life. If one is found wicked, his [verdict] is sealed for death. A Beinoni's verdict remains tentative until Yom Kippur. If he repents, his [verdict] is sealed for life. If not, his [verdict] is sealed for death.

  1. Good point.

    What about regretting chumras or false shitos?

  2. People stopped using sefaria because they have open orthodox, conservative and reform garbage

  3. The answer I got when I asked was: Use those sections that are kosher and don't donate when they ask.

  4. They never stopped using Jastrow in yeshivas, despite him being the 3rd category you mentioned.
    Also Rav kanievsky praised Louis finkelstein's work on the Yerushalmi, despite him being in the 2nd category.

  5. How do figure out which sections of Sefaria are considered "kosher"?

  6. Is it Rashi or ramban? Or their English translations?

    How about the chabad translation of the rambam MT?
