Translated for my non-Jewish friends: Means a convert to Judaism is as if he was born a Jew. Literally means like he was just born, hence he was born a Jew.

Thanks so much!!!!

Just don't go around sysnagogue saying that you're a born-again ;)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Excellent translation, but more so, the explanation, R' Chaim. Very deep. You obviously do your fair share of learning Torah. Maybe you can help me revive the "what are you learning" thread.

Maybe Chaim should give a Talmud class

I think it's only right to say Reb Chaim, after the way that he has distinguished himself over the past 8 weeks since joining the forum.

Reb Chaim, speaking of the nine days restrictions, what do you do this motzoei shabbos about the havdallah wine? Do you drink it or give it to a child? If the latter, how old? Or is it preferable to make havdallah on "chmar medinah"? If so, which beverage. Thank you.

Are you sure you aren't thinking too highly of your Rabbi here? He may have YoDan YoDan but that doesn't mean that he has Yoreh Yoreh...

My 1yr DDF anniversary = 58 CCs, 2.8mil points, 6 new destinations, average credit score went up 6 points, my family thinks I'm the next Dan (HAHA  ;D ) & still feel like a noob!
A big thank you to Dan, my fellow DDFers, all those CC companies with awesome promos, Rite Aid, Amazon Payments, EHD, PGGM, and of course my Eishes Chayil (about a third of the cc and points are hers ;) )

To another amazing year!!
mt. great for you. but its like a marriage i referred to it as shana rishona you get away with alot of cr@p we try to overlook and quickly forgive in the name of building a relationship. with cc it often works the same but it very likely will pay its toll in the future and it wont be fun, so proceed with caution
