Transcript
0:11So, for example, if someone makes a sin, like let's say a Chazan, the Chazan has to be somebody very special. You can't just have anybody as a Chazan. Now, if the Chazan wants to look good for the kehillah, he wants to shave, he wants to have a clean face, and he decides to shave with a razor, which is 100% against the law. It's against Chazal. Now, if he does it once, that's a huge sin. It's like eating pig six times. So nonetheless, if he commits one sin, okay fine, it's one sin, but if he's the type of person who makes that sin on a regular basis, he wants to look like a movie star at all times, he wants his face to be like a baby's, and he chooses to shave with a razor, then he is going against Divrei Chazal on a regular basis.
1:33When you go against Divrei Chazal on a regular basis, where it's not a one-time thing, this is one of the things that is in Masechet Sanhedrin. It says you are no longer part of Am Yisrael. Meaning, he's not only not allowed to be a Chazan, he's not allowed to be in the minyan bechlal. He's not counted as part of the minyan. When he says Kaddish, you're not allowed to say Amen. When someone who is a violator of Shabbat says Kaddish, you cannot say "Amen." It is considered to be as if nothing was said. You cannot say "Amen." That's why in most shuls, where there are many people who desecrate Shabbat, there is usually one person who observes Shabbat who also says Kaddish. You say "Amen" to him. You do not say "Amen" to the person who desecrates Shabbat.
