"Mr Metayeg"
Since we recently had a lot of talk about "Mr Metayeg", here is a "metayeg" who put Christian crosses on the first line and shem Hashem's. This was recently found in Israel.
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident. Nowadays, no decent Rav will approve an ink which is not מן המותר בפיך . Who was the first one to raise this question? Was it raised because of animal ingredients or because of non-kosher wine?
The forum is back online...for reference and research purposes.
Dear Readers and Members, The forum has been down for over 6 months because the domain name (www.stamforum.com) lapsed and it is no longer available to re purchase. Although this forum is now defunct (it has morphed into several whatsapp groups), I have had many requests to put it back online because it contains so much information (over 1,800 posts and thousands of comments in the discussions, on a wide range of topics related to STa"M). I have therefore put the forum back online at blogger, so the address is www.stamforum.blogspot.com. The forum lasted for a decade...not a bad effort! It was pretty popular back in the days before whatsapp and managed to receive over a million hits in it's short life. It was one of the only organised forums in the STa"M world and definitely the largest in it's heyday. I would like to thank all those who cobtributed over the years, particularly the early members who helped build it up. Thanking you all, Eli
Elad,
ReplyDeletethis is not Mt Mitayeg's work, but some Jew for x-man [Hashem yerachem] added on a mezuza.
What should be done with such a mezuzah l'maseh? Put in Geniza or something else?
ReplyDeleteDefinitly in gniza, it is very quite obvious that the mezuza was written by one person [possibly a kosher sofer], and the crosses added by some meshigener.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is I think before putting it in geniza, it is a mitzva to erase the crosses, because the disgrace to cisvei hakodesh. This is on the probable assumption that the mezuza wasn't written by a min. Had the mezuza been written by a min, it should be burnt, the csav and ....
