What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

uh absorb and deal with in our current society and in contemporary society first of all one of the things the gross said is the main thing is not to speak about anybody's praise and not to disparage anyone so that's difficult to understand we understand you can't disparage anyone but not to praise anyone as we mentioned it's a very big mitzvah to praise sadhikam to speak about um how import how how great tamir khame or eurasia mayan balay midos are the next thing the degrasse says is that for a woman it's better to daven in the house because it's impossible to be spared from jealousy and to hear advantage and one is punished for hearing dwarm battalion and certainly shabbos and yamtiv where women gather and they speak it's better not to daven at all that is what the gross says better not to davin than for a woman to davan in the show that's also hard to understand in today's contemporary society and then the big whopper was be very careful not to go a set to a cemetery ever because in the cemetery you have the clip ice and certainly women should not go there and all ills and sin come from visiting cemeteries so all of these three things need a lot of analysis and i remember that actually art scroll came out with an addition of the iguara sagra so you know i finally uh succumbed and i went out this morning actually i had a bit of a bug so i didn't want to share with anybody so i i called the the store i said you have igara sagra i paid and uh i said just drop it in my window i i swung by and here it is igaras hagra and the igaras hagras edition is by rabbi
