A new episode in the series of talks by the Chief Rabbi of Dnipro, Shmuel Kaminezki, dedicated to the weekly Torah portion “Ki Teitzei,” has been released on the “Menorah” YouTube channel. This time, the discussion revolves around an extremely subtle and complex topic: is truth always the only correct path? While we usually understand that lying undermines trust, Rabbi Shmuel Kaminezki explains that Jewish tradition acknowledges situations where deception is not only permitted but becomes a genuine obligation. This refers to cases where preserving family peace, saving relationships, or avoiding conflicts that could cause irreparable harm is necessary. <\/p>

<\/p>

In his commentary, he draws on Torah sources and Talmudic stories, demonstrating that sometimes truth can destroy, while falsehood can save. At the same time, he emphasizes a boundary that must not be crossed: deception for material gain or personal benefit always remains a sin. Thus, the conversation shifts to the realm of moral choice relevant to each of us: where is the line between honesty and necessity, and how can one find a balance between sincerity and responsibility toward others? <\/p>

<\/p>

This episode offers viewers profound and timely lessons from the Torah, providing new perspectives on complex life situations where the boundaries between truth and falsehood are not always clear.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
