    Does refusing to let someone convert give them justification to becoming one's mortal enemy?

    Some other interesting tidbits I came across: 1) The Diqduqe Soferim states that the phase מאי טעמא דלא איבעי להו לרחקה is not found in early manuscripts. 2) The Midrash Tanhuma states that Timna was a mamzereth. 3) Gen. Rabbah 39:14 states that Sarah was responsible for converting women, which sounds like a contradiction to this Gemara.

  • "My significant other broke things off for no good reason, so I firebombed his house." Relatable vis-a-vis human nature? Yes. Justified? No.

  • @ Shalom. Thx. Yes ... maybe Amalek's method is the problem.
