I am a little confused.

Could anyone explai, if the satan is something Hashem uses, then why cannot Hashem just not allow satan to go too far...

Yetza hara and satan samething? or are they different or like how xtians believe in this satan thing.

Thanks to anyone who can explain.

Gd bless.

The Satan was created by Hashem and Hashem can ultimately stop the satan whenever He wants. I think there is a process which has to occur and so Hashem allows many things that we as humans do not totally understand. The Xtian view of the satan is not the same as the Torah sets out.

The yetzer hara is our own desire to do the wrong thing, it is the animal soul [nefesh habehamis] in us. We constantly strive to allow our G-dly soul [nefesh haElokis] to lead. If you want to learn all about this in great depth, then learn it from the great Rabbi Y. Y. Jacobson at
A Tale of Two Souls

Can't you see Devorah that Rav Kessin doesn't have a clue? You promote a Rabbi whose absurdities have no limits.
Please compare his shiurim with those of Rabbis Anava and Mizrachi. What a difference! By listening to Rav Kessin people get confused, it is your responsibility to choose meaningful shiurim helping Am Yisrael in such critical times. Let my comment be published and respond to it, and let people to have a critical opinion about Rav Kessin's value of sermons. Lev

No Anonymous I can't see that he ''doesn't have a clue''. On the contrary, he's been right from the start when he predicted Trump's win and everything else.

when I look at events today, and the hysteria from the liberals regarding anything Trump does, it just shows me that the things Rabbi Kessin is saying are actually happening right before our eyes.

Barbra Streisand is so distressed, she's released a new album to sing about the dreadfulness of Trump. People are obsessed with destroying him. They can't bear him. Why? He's doing a great job, as far as I can see, no matter what he may have done in the past he's now the President and he is making America great again, in spite of all the haters.

Please explain where you think Rabbi Kessin has got it wrong.

Comparing Rabbi Mizrachi with Rabbi Kessin... as you suggest.... have a listen to Rabbi Mizrachi's shiur on Pittsburgh, which i am about to put up on the blog...from apprx the 7 min mark.... and you will see that Rabbi Mizrachi is agreeing with Rabbi Kessin.
You Tube link for Rabbi Mizrachi on Pittsburgh is

Hello Devorah,

I was suprised to read that comment from 'annonymous" accusing you of 'promoting' Rabbi Kessin.

This is not nice-(in my opinion, which may not count with many Jews, as i am a non-Jew, but follow Hashem and H-s Torah), that the one accusing you, is not doing good, by trying to push 'her/his, opinion"telling you that by posting the Rabbi's shuir, many according to her/him, will be confused.

Rabbi Kessin tries to teach , and when one does not understand what he says, its simple to ask someone, or if one can ask the good Rabbi directly what he meant by ... this.. or that.. or whatever.. I am sure someone or the Rabbi himself would answer. This is what the annonymous ought to have done.. especially as he/she put it in these
'critical times..Just saying...

At this time when there is enough confusion coming into the world, trying to put Rabbi's down, is not ... (again in my opinion), a good thing.

Devorah you replied to her well... I just want to thank you for from your blog, i have learned much... besides, when i have asked you for to help me understand things that i do not understand , you have helped me many times, when i asked you directlly.
Thank you for that help.

I might also add, that there are also many Jewish blogs i go to, to learn.. and i am grateful to them all... most of all to Hashem... for I have seen how Hashem has helped me... when i need some answer to some thing troubling me...
The way Hashem has helped me.. is via these blogs... for as soon as i go... with the question bothering me at the time.. i go to one of these great blogs, and lo and behold, my answer is there. Hashem helpe me... Baruch Hashem!

I see it as Hashem taking me to get my answer to questions that i ask of Him..

Devorah thank you. and Hashem bless you.

Hashem bless even the one who wrote to you as she did.

All happens for a reason.. in the end... nu?

Kala..
