Traits of Modesty - Laws of Personal Development (22)

Textbook for the Shiur: Hilchot De’ot & Hilchot Talmud Torah (Laws of Personal Development & Laws of Torah Study) https://www.amazon.com/Mishneh-Hilchot-Personality-Development-Talmud/dp/B000GW5NHC Judaism places great emphasis on the performance of mitzvot that not only deal with deed and action, but also involve the development of our thoughts and feelings and the dedication of them to the service of G-d. It could be surprising for many people that personal growth is associated with commandments that we are obligated to fulfill, and it’s not a matter of personal choice. But don’t worry, you don’t have to do this alone. G-d, in His mercy, shows us a path that enable each one of us to grow intellectually and emotionally and use our potentials for the service of G-d. Hilchot De’ot is one of the sections within Sefer Mishneh Torah by Rambam (Maimonides). Rambam demonstrated in Sefer Hilchot De’ot the objective law of personality developments as the path G-d shows us. Be’Ezrat Hashem, through learning and following the process of personal growth, we will be able to carry out all the other mitzvot with greater awareness and conviction. Eleven Mitzvot and dozens of Halachot are taught with commentaries and detailed explanation in Hilchot De’ot class, including five positive commandments and six negative commandments, as follows: 1. to imitate His ways 2. to cling to those who know Him 3. to love others (fellow Jews) 4. to love converts 5. not to hate one’s fellow Jews 6. to admonish [a wrongdoer] 7. not to shame 8. not to oppress the unfortunate 9. not to bear tales 10. not to take revenge 11. not to bear a grudge. Learning with Rabbi Lev Leib Lerner, and Be’Ezrat Hashem, we all adjust ourselves to the middle path and modify our middot to fulfill our potential for the service of our Creator. --- 00:00 - Intro 00:29 - Sefer Shmiras Haloshon: Man’s Superiority 03:43 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 5: Halachah 6: Awareness of God and Modesty 16:14 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 5: Halachah 6: Modesty, Kippah, and Pride 29:19 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 5: Halachah 6: Modesty in Restroom 44:22 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 5: Halachah 7: Proper Way of Speech & Greeting 53:45 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 5: Halachah 7: Judge People Favorably, Love Peace and Pursue it 59:26 - Outro --- #DerotagorySpeech #TheWorldToCome #Punishment #Creation #Yerushalmi #Talmud #KingDavid #GuardYourTongueFromEvil #MansSuperiority #PowerOfSpeech #Onkelos #ASpeakingSpirit #ConstructiveSpeech #JewishHashkafa #EvilTalk #GossipAndSlander #SeferShemirasHalashon #SeferChofetzChaim #LashonHara #HalachotOfLashonHara #AwarenessOfGodAndModesty #Modesty #JewishModesty #TorahSages #AwarenessOfGod #CoverHead #CoverBody #DivinePresence #Jeremiah #Humility #FearOfGod #YiratShamayim #Isaiah #Kippah #Yarmulke #Amot #HeadCovering #Mitzvot #Mitzvos #Mitzvah #Halachah #Pride #Gaavah #Modesty #JewishModesty #Kippah #Yarmulke #ShulchanAruch #ModestyInRestroom #KingSaul #ForbiddenToDelayRelievingOneself #RespectOthers #AwarenessOfGodPresence #DivinePresence #ProperWayOfSpeech #ProperWayOfGreeting #SpeakGently #TorahSage #NotToBeHaughty #GreetPeopleFirst #JudgePeopleFavorably #LovePeaceAndPursueIt #BenefitOfDoubt #ViewPeopleFavorably #TalkPositively #LovePeace #SpreadLove #Aharon #Avot #PirkeiAvot #TimeToKeepSilence #EraOfMashiach #RabbiYaronReuven #Ecclesiastes #MishnehTorah #HilchotDeot #MiddleWay #TheLawsOfPersonalDevelopment #Rambam #JewishTraits #MiddotDevelopment #Middos #CharacterTraitsDevelopment #Maimonides #SeferHamada #JewishValue #JewishHashkafa #Halachos #Halachot #BeezratHashem #RabbiLevLeibLerner #RabbiLerner #LearnWithLerner #BeezratHashemLearnWithLerner #BeezratHashemHalachot #BeezratHashemHalachos #LevLeibLerner #LevLerner #RabbiLevLerner #Torah #Tanakh #God #faith #laws #rabbi #morals #ethics #morality #jews #torahLecture #lawsOfPurity #LawsofJudaism #BeezratHashem #RabbiLevLeibLerner #LearnwithLerner #RabbiMizrachi #HalachosofJudaism #biblestudy #selfdevelopment #selfimprovement #musarmovement #lawsforwomen #lawsofbrachot #rabbiefraimkachlon #rabbiyaaronreuven #jewishstories #shabbatcandles #torahstudy #ConvertingtoJudaism #TorahLaws #ToviaSinger #TorahTruth
