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?
Question to Yosef Chaim B
Thank you for commenting on my ink article. In your comment you stated: "Many poskim disagree... Many rishonim have clearly stated the use of our ingredients." Would you please be kind enough to teach us (so I can include it in the article) which Poskim and what exactly and where did they say that the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן that does not fail? We are not interested in biased פילפולים , or in those who said that דיו עשן is not being used because it fails easily or because it was not known how to make good quality דיו עשן. Nor are we interested in those who said to use עפצים וקנקנתום וגומא ואין לשנות when they discussed specifically the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink. We are interested to find out where and who (if any) said explicitly, based on sources, that the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן , even when there is דיו עשן of good quality that does not ...
Shalom Rav Eli,
ReplyDeleteThe parsha with the nun sofit that you post are indeed not kosher. I actually recognize this sofer because I have been offered this parsha for very cheap a number of times and refused to buy it for this exact reason. (It was offered to me under the name "Uri" from a travelling socher who visits from benai braq). I am certain this is the same sofer. He has a "baya yesodi" where he makes the rosh / gaga of some of the letters very thick and it causes problems. I mentioned it to the socher but someone should really speak to the sofer!
Rabbi David is correct the nun is a big zayin.
ReplyDeleteBut I understand from Rabbi David that there is a problem with the sofer/socher, beware!!
The zadi Pshuta ask a tinok and follow up.

ReplyDeleteFor matter of clarity I think that the second picture of the nun sofit (of Nosain) should be a shailos tinok. It is much better than the first picture of the nun sofit, in the ksav Beis Yosef.
