While most Republicans voted adamantly against the bill, Senator Robert Singer and Assemblyman Sean Kean who represent Lakewood, voted in Committee and on the floor in favor of the bill. Democrat Assemblyman Avi Schnall also voted strongly in favor of the bill. Faanews.com

  1. How does one vote "adamantly" or "strongly"? Isn't it just "Yea" or "Nay"?

  2. Strange that Hefkervelt keeps refering to Avi Schnall's vote on the bill as voted "strongly". Maybe he voted "weakly"? Perhaps just "voted"?

    1. He was actively working the halls of power to get others to vote for it. That's what makes it strongly.

  4. Although it may be an uplifting experience, the Mishna Berura does pasken that davening with musical instruments is forbidden.
    I am not aware of any credible disagreement. His source is the Chasam Sofer, who explains it well.

    This is on weekdays. Shabbos is another issur.

    3. The chasam sofer was a takana made due to events at the time, which may no longer be applicable. I don't see anyone going to church to enjoy the music, which was prevailing at the time. The bais hamikdash had musical hallel.

    4. If you only heard about the Chasam Sofer on a tape about Jewish history, you can make the mistake 'Not Shapiro' made. However, if you learn the Chasam Sofer inside, you will know that it was a Halacha, not a Takanah. And the Beis Hamikdash has nothing to do with the issue. Learn the Chasam Sofer inside, and see the Mishna Berura, who was living in different times.
