The Zionist Government will ban bonfires on Lag Ba'omer, this will finally stop Chareidim from worshipping Avoda Zara! Serious Gedoilim are meeting to discuss whether to thank the Zionists for preventing The Charedie "Yeherag velo Gayus" guys from worshipping fires!!
Below is the Government announcement and below that is an e-mail from EMAILIM BATORAH that suggests that this minhag of dancing around the fire is "darkei amoiri"
Israel’s Fire and Rescue Commissioner, Chief Fire Officer Eyal Caspi, has signed an emergency order banning the lighting of bonfires and open fires across the country due to extreme weather conditions that significantly increase the risk of wildfires.
The order takes effect Thursday and will remain in force until Saturday, May 18, including and affecting the Lag Ba’omer holiday. The ban applies to all open areas and includes bonfires, burning of vegetation and trimmings, and any technical work that may cause ignition.The Fire and Rescue Authority emphasized that the coming days are expected to bring heatwave conditions posing a serious risk that fires will ignite and spread, particularly in open areas, forests, and woodlands.The ban does not apply to fire use in designated cooking facilities, such as barbecues, or in areas specifically prepared and approved for this purpose by local authorities, the Israel Nature and Parks Authority, or Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael (KKL), and which have received authorization from the Fire and Rescue Authority.
Authorities urged the public to act responsibly and avoid discarding flammable waste — especially coal, cigarettes, and other combustible materials — in open areas.

THE LAG BAOMER DARKEI EMORI FIRE DANCE
The תוספתא (Shabbos 7:1) enumerates practices that are אסור to do because they are considered דרכי אמורי. One of them is clapping or dancing in front of a fire.
Dancing in front of a fire would be an איסור דאורייתא of ובחקתיהם לא תלכו.
Some might claim that dancing in front of a fire on ל"ג בעומר is an accepted מנהג בישראל, and they will argue that it can't be wrong when you have thousands of Yidden & Rebbes dancing around the fire.
The same argument was probably also used when there were thousands of Yidden worshipping the עגל הזהב.
Perhaps, those planning to dance in front of the fire should consult their מורה הוראה if this איסור דאורייתא is no longer applicable today, and why not?

I'm not a betting man but if I was, I'd bet that The Gedolim(tm) will issue a statement condemning The Zionist Entity(tm) for interfering with sacred Torah traditions that we have been following since Sinai.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you saying about the Hadluuukeh, the Hasidics made up a new religion, Lag Baomer is like the greatest yuntiff for them, going to Meron then is like aliyah liregel (Reb Gamliel Rabinovitch), then they give the avoida zara chalaka to the kiddies, Chai Rotel scam. And then you have the dancing and shtik of Reb Mylich Biderman. They feel so restricted, especially after a period of mourning, they are desperate for some "fun", so they made up new rituals, songs, and beliefs.
ReplyDeleteHow can you be yoitze Lag Baomer without a big hadlukeh? Is that why you got mixed up DIN, because you had no hadlukeh for many years in your younger days? Maybe tell the oylam how Lag Baomer was marked in your youth, and changes you have seen over time in relationship to that day. Thanks DIN!
