As I see it, there are only two possibilities:
1- No,
2- Yes, but (as RDMI) we have no other way to stop the guy, who (as RRW
assumes), is risking the mental health and yir'as Shamayim of his
victims -- thus piqu'ach nefesh.
If #2, then we can ask hutrah or dechuyah. And is there a difference
lemaaseh? where OT1H shemiras halashon limits doing more than the
minimum. Yet OTOH we can't know what that minimum is, as we don't kjnow
until after we create a "qol" how many other victims, the extent of harm
to this one beyond what is known, etc..., and therefore piquach nefesh
argues for a large estimate.
There are questions that make me glad I'm not a poseiq.

Why would the shiur that would pasul wine for use in the Beit Hamikdash
affect its usability for AZ? The goyim don't follow our halachot.

Honey is assur bemashehu to be *burnt on the mizbeach*, as or with a
korban ("lo taktiru mimenu isheh"). That tells us nothing about what
amount would make wine pasul for the nesachim. Rambam Issurei Mizbeach
6:8 doesn't specifically mention with with stuff mixed into it, unless
that's what's meant by "matok", which is passul.

Subject: [Avodah] Moshe, his staff and following directions
Hi all,
Has anyone seen an interesting commentary on the following?
- Dam
- The Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and *stretch
forth your hand *over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over
their canals, over their ponds, and over all their bodies of
water, and they
will become blood, and there will be blood throughout the entire land of
Egypt, even in wood and in stone.' "
- Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord had commanded, and he raised the
staff and *struck the water *that was in the Nile before the eyes of
Pharaoh and before the eyes of his servants, and all the water
that was in
the Nile turned to blood.
- There was no command to "smite"
- Tzefardea
- The Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, *stretch forth your hand *with
your staff over the rivers, over the canals, and over the ponds,
and bring
up the frogs on the land of Egypt."
- And Aaron *stretched forth his hand *over the waters of Egypt, and
the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
- Directions followed exactly. Stretching only.
- Kinim
- The Lord said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, '*Stretch forth your staff
and strike *the dust of the earth, and it shall become lice throughout
the entire land of Egypt.' "
- They did so, and Aaron *stretched forth his hand with his staff
and struck *the dust of the earth, and the lice were upon man and
beast; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout the
entire land of
Egypt.
- Directions followed exactly. Stretching and striking.
- Arov
- No action by Moshe and Ahron
- Dever
- No action by Moshe and Ahron
- Shchin
- The Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, "Take yourselves handfuls of
furnace soot, and Moses shall cast it heavenward before Pharaoh's eyes.
- And it will become dust upon the entire land of Egypt, and it will
become boils, breaking out into blisters upon man and upon beast
throughout
the entire land of Egypt."
- So they took furnace soot, and they stood before Pharaoh, and
Moses cast it heavenward, and it became boils breaking out into blisters
upon man and upon beast.
- Directions followed exactly. Just hand.
- Barad
- The Lord said to Moses, "Stretch forth your hand heavenward, and
hail will be upon the entire land of Egypt, upon man and upon
beast and upon
all the vegetation of the field in the land of Egypt."
- So Moses stretched forth his staff heavenward, and the Lord gave
forth thunder and hail, and fire came down to the earth, and the
Lord rained
down hail upon the land of Egypt.
- Directions followed exactly. Just hand.
- Arbe
- The Lord said to Moses, "*Stretch forth your hand *over the land
of Egypt for the locusts, and they will ascend over the land of
Egypt, and
they will eat all the vegetation of the earth, all that the hail has left
over."
- So Moses *stretched forth his staff *over the land of Egypt, and
the Lord led an east wind in the land all that day and all the night. [By
the time] it was morning, the east wind had borne the locusts.
- Used staff when he was told to only use hand.
- Choshesh
- The Lord said to Moses, "Stretch forth your hand toward the
heavens, and there will be darkness over the land of Egypt, and
the darkness
will become darker."
-
So Moses stretched forth his hand toward the heavens, and there was
thick darkness over the entire land of Egypt for three days.
- Directions followed exactly. Just hand.
- Makat B'chorot
- No action by Moshe and Ahron
This week's Parsha:
- 17:5 And the Lord said to Moses, Pass before the people and take with
you [some] of the elders of Israel, and *take into your hand your staff,
with which you struck the Nile*, and go.
- 17:6 Behold, I shall stand there before you on the rock in Horeb, *and
you shall strike the rock, *and water will come out of it, and the people
will drink *Moses did so *before the eyes of the elders of Israel.
- All the Meforshim I saw comment about how the reason this command to
take the staff is given is to show that the same staff that was used for
puraniyot can also be used for good.
My Questions:
1. Why didn't Moshe listen exactly during Dam and Arbe?
2. Is it possible that the message Hashem is giving Moshe when telling
him to take the staff in this week's parsha is: "Follow my directions
exactly. This time I want you to strike the rock, but in the future I will
want you to do something different. You already "messed up" with the Nile,
so don't do so again"?
3. Why did hashem ask for striking of the dirt during Kinim when it
wasn't in front of Pharoh?
1. Why does he specify striking for kinim when he only mentions
stretching forth for Dam and Tzefardea?
4. Why wasn't the staff used for Schin and Barad?
5. Why was there no action for Arov and Dever?
1. This question doesn't need to be asked for Makat B'chorot

There is a statement of RCS that sometimes Teshuvot of the Rambam are

This implies that Rambam would not always be happy with Brisk chillukim.
RCS distinguishes between tefillat ha-tzibbur and tefilla be-tzibbur

My last posting on this thread talked about stepping back at
Oseh shalom in kaddish as a possible copycatting of the same
words at the end of shmoneh esrei.
I forgot one case where this is definitely not so. At the
end of the chazarat ha-sha"tz, the chazan must say yehi
ratzon imrei fi...and step back. Some squeeze it in
immediately. Another equally acceptable method is to delay
the stepping back until the end of kaddish titkabal. With
the second method, the only possible copycatting is that
those who saw the chazan backing up thought one always backs
up at end of kaddish and so....

Why would you need one shatz only for a whole chativa (except for
shemonei essrei, where the prohibition of the slightest hefsek would
make it impractical to change, though I have seen it be'et hatzorekh
(1st shatz suddenly felt ill).
In fact, despite the fact that we have mostly moved away from such
practices, in teh instance of the text said when setting out to return
a sefer Torah to teh heikhal, the chazan relies on the qahal and
tehqahal on the chazan, for teh chazan says yehallellu et shem
ha<Shem>..., and stops in the midst of a verse, which is picked up by
teh qahal. Both parties are motzi each other. This kind of responsive
reading was once very common, and still is in real Ashkenaz (Yekkishe)
and in Yemenite communities (that is how they reportedly say Hallel).

DDD isn't necessarily applicable. If aa BD /could/ handle the case, there
is chiyuv to go to BD. And therefore DDD would be trumped. And since BD
can't, one has to protect people from further harm, so DDD is redundant.
Besides, the extent to which DDD applies beyond CM is iffy. Here it's
hezeq, so one could argue that aspect would. But thaat wouldn't impinge

We discussed this before.
But before I go there, the original question appears to be a machloqes
the Rambam and the Chinukh. The Yad, Hil' Melakhim 6 places killing
Amaleiq among milkhamos mitzvah -- a national din. The Chinukh (#604)
makes a chiyuv on every man, woman and child -- on the yachid.
Now back to this issue of accepting their geirim.
From my post at http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/vol16/v16n165.shtml#09
RMWeisenberg quoted the Mechilta that we don't accept geirim from Amaleiq,
to which I countered the gemara about Haman's children learning Torah
in Benei Beraq.
As for new ground (for this iteration):
> See also Rambam, Hilkhos Melakhim 6:1-4.
... which means that one should first try to get peace and offer geirei
toshav.
Also Issurei Bi'ah 12:17 about accepting their geirim.
> The Netziv limits that Mekhilta to being during warime.
> OTOH, the Tzitz Eliezer (8:27) notes that the Baal haTurim (Shemos
> 28:7) quotes the gemara as speaking of the descendents of Na'aman, not
> Haman. The TE ends up concluding that the Rambam is speaking of geirei
> toshav, not geirei tzedeq.
In any case, geirei toshav could become talmidei chakhamim in those
dinim that apply to them, so why couldn't it be Haman's?
For that matter, could the descendent of a former Amaleiqite geir toshav
convert even according to those wwho would prohibit the first generation?
Alternatively, perhaps we can find old sources in which Haman isn't an
actual Amaleiqi, that define ha'Agadi otherwise, and thus only bedin
Amaleiq by R' Chaim Brisker's idea that people who try to eterminate us
our concluded -- which wouldn't include children who don't agree. (Unlike
real Amaleiqi which is a born status.)
Targum Sheini (and Josephus Antiquities 11.6.5) take Agagi as a reference
to Agag. But the LXX, in one instance (9:24) translate it to o Makedon
(of Macedon), ie a place name. However, the land of Agag in the modern
theory is next to Madai, and their primary god was probably that of the
Elamites -- Haman. Not the land of Alexander. I still wouldn't surprised
is someone from Chazal ran with an idea in the LXX.
Da'as Miqra discusses this (as did we in vol17).
Y-mi Yevamos 13a (2:6): "Vekhi ben Hamdasa hayah? Ela tzoreir ben
tzoreir of hacha qotzeitz ben qotzeitz." Which argues its not necessarily
discussing physical lineage but listing him as a cultural Agagite.
AND Haman was after Sancheirev, which means there are maamarei chazal
that say there already no known Amaleiqim anymore. Does this mean Berakhos
28a represents a mesorah from the other side of a machloqes?

Of course not. An individual can kill a rodef or a moser; a goel hadam
can kill the person who was convicted of his relative's manslaughter, if
he finds him outside the ir miklat. But where would an ordinary person
get the authority to just walk up to someone in the street and kill him?
If you think someone is chayav mita, take him to a beit din. If you see
a nation of Amalek that exists, go to the Melech and complain.
As for an individual Amaleki, who is going about his business and not
harming anyone, where would even the Melech get the authority to kill
him? Even an organised Amaleki nation must reject terms of surrender
before it can be wiped out (Melachim Umilchamotehem 6); surely an
individual is entitled to the same right!

Since when? Where is such a halacha to be found? Not in Rambam, not

Why would such children be different than Amalekim who converted,
perhaps before a BD of hedyotot, if the organised BD would not accept
them (for which I see no evidence)? Are they more Jewish than such
converts and their offspring?

Is it even a disputed halacha? As I said above, no trace of it is
to be found in the Rambam or Shulchan Aruch.

That pasuk alone is not a problem. The plain meaning of "ger" in that
pasuk is "alien", not "convert".

Yes, I too suspect that your closing line answers the question.
We need a minyan for kaddish. We need a minyan and a chazan for barchu. We
need a minyan for tefila b'tzibur. We need a minyan and a chazan for
chazaras hashatz. etc, etc, etc.
But I don't see any need for a minyan for psukei d'zimra. And the only need
for a chazan there is to help everyone keep pace, which many minyanim don't
bother with. The chazan isn't being motzi anyone with yishtabach.
Switching chazanim between Baruch She'amar and Yishtabach doesn't retain
unity. They don't have any unity to retain. (Tzibur-wise, I mean. Each
chazan must be sure to say both. It's just that each chazan says one aloud
and the other quietly.)
