רוב רשעות איז טיפשות – מען כאפט נישט אז דאס איז דער הייליגער קורקבן | שמונה פרקים פרק ד׳ שיעור ט״ז
from שיעורי עיון למחשבה - אידיש · host בית המדרש עיון למחשבה - הרב יצחק לאווי
This shiur examines the definition of goodness (gutskait) and argues that most moral failures stem not from wickedness or battling the yetzer hara, but from a fundamental blindness — an inability to recognize that a familiar ethical principle actually applies to the situation right in front of you. Using the parable of a rabbi who knows all the halachos of treifos but can’t identify the actual karkavan (gizzard), the shiur illustrates how people can master abstract Torah concepts yet completely fail to connect them to real-life cases, whether in business disputes, communal leadership, or interpersonal relationships. The practical takeaway: acquiring true da’as — the capacity to bridge theory and reality — requires both broad learning across halacha and shimush chachamim (apprenticing with wise people), not just working on one’s middos as if every problem is a spiritual battle. 📌 Related Content 📺 Watch on YouTube 🎬 Watch on Website 📝 Read Transcript 🌐 Hebrew Transcript
