[Avodah] Hebrew in Posts (was Malach vs. Mazal)

[Moshe Yehuda Gluck]

R' Jon Baker:
*I wish people would remember that in digest form, hebrew does not appear.
*Going to the archives doesn't help, because that's stored in, guess what,
*you're right: Digest Form.  So please translate or transliterate.  We can
*generally figure out most transliteration schemes, even
*Galitzianer/Chasidish.

My apologies! I was not aware of that. Here are is the post transliterated:


Ruach Chaim (Avos 1:2) quotes Chazal: Ain lecha eisev ba'aretz she'ain lo
malach b'rakia makeihu v'omer lo gadel. The citation given is Bereishis
Rabbah 10. In Bereishis Rabbah 10:7 I found the following: Amar R' Simon ain
lecha kol eisev v'eisev she'ein lo mazal b'rakia she'makeh oso v'omer lo
gadeil. Is R' Chaim Volozhiner equating Malachim and Mazalos? Or, is the
Mareh Makom wrong and there is another Chazal which says Malach?
