To move on to another issue for a little while: the laws of your placement when you are in Tefillah (prayer). The issue is like this. Shulchan Aruch writes that a person should not pray in an elevated place, a Makom Gavoha (elevated place). Very clearly, the Gemara tells us that the shul should be the highest building in town. And the Gemara now says that the roof of the shul should be the highest building in town. It should be placed on the highest, most elevated spot in town.
So he asked the question: If you're telling me I should not pray in an elevated place, why would they tell us that the shul should be structured in a high place? She says the answer. I mean, I think we can come up with the answer ourselves, and the answer is pretty clear. And that is, there's no issue with praying in a high spot. In fact, it's a good thing. It's elevated Torah. Hashem, fine. The issue is an individual being higher than everybody else. That's the problem, because that's a display of arrogance, and Tefillah is not the time a person should have ga'avah, should have arrogance when it comes to Hashem. And therefore, one person should not be praying on a more elevated place than the rest of the Kahal (congregation). And that's the Halacha (law), the Ma'aseh (practical ruling).
But because the issue is one of the issues of arrogance, the law is: Let's say a person's in a woman's section, and the woman's section is overlooking the shul; it's way higher than the shul. Assuming that's considered part of the minyan (prayer quorum), the fact that they're in an elevated place is not considered a problem because there's no arrogance there. Arrogance: if you're here and you have an elevated spot, that's a problem. But if you're in a woman's section, right, where it happens to be higher than the shul, there's no arrogance there. Therefore, one is allowed to pray over there because it's not considered a place within the minyan; it's elevated, it's considered a separate place that's higher up, and that's perfectly fine. That's Halacha. Like I said once before, how a rabbi is allowed to stand on stage, I don't know the answer. I'm assuming it's Kavod HaTorah (honor of Torah), something like that. That's Halacha. Kavod (honor).
