Who was punished for being Mochel on his kavod?

I thought maybe it was Shaul who was hiding when he was inaugurated...

Our rebbe bentches you with nachas, saying if it's not Yiddish nachas, then it is not considered nachas at all. No need for the double lashon.

By story of Bar kamtza, they say that chocomim weren't moche because they knew people wouldn't listen, it was from anivus, that brought churban. Does that mean that the were forgoing their kavod, and not using their powers?

Shimi ben geira?
I am not aware that he was faulted by it?. But Shaul was. It was considered wrong on his part.

Actually, I think they say the meekness of Rabbi Zecharia ben Avkilus (the kohen gadol) brought the churban. It was because when Bar kamtza brought the animal with a blemish as a korban, he didn't allow it to go through because people will say that they allow animals with a blemish.

As far as the Rabbis at the party not protesting Bar Kamtza's humiliation- that made bar kamtza mad- but I don't think the gemara actually faults the Rabbis directly.

Thanks. Shimi.
Interesting fact. We have a son Shimmy that our Rav told us to spell the nickname shin meme Yud without the ayin because there's a thing not to give the name shin meme Yud ayin because he cursed a king.

Hi, back to the question of which ppl could fly...

My Dh was doing shnayim mikra with Rashi, and told me of another person in the parsha who was able to fly!!! Very Happy

Who wants to look it up? (Rashi)
It's based on the person's name, so quickly pull out a chumash and look at all the unique names in the parsha!!
