Mezuza affixing

By Dovid Nissan Bressman -


I do not think that these entrances need mezuzahs since they do not have any protruding like lentils (perhaps the one with a gate would need since it is considered a door). I think there are more stricter opinions in this as well.

    Dovid,
    Is the one with the gate is only a garage, or there is a entrance from that garage further into the house?
    The third arrow [the one closest to the viewer] I can't doscern from the picture - what is there?
    Please add details, thanks

    Someone sent me this picture in an email (I am not sure on the third arrow, what is behind it). I do know that this garage is connected to the house.

    If the garage has a connection to house, even a back door you should recommend putting a mezuza on the one that has a gate, without a bracha.

    I understand from your question that the left entrance continues to the house?!
    then it is cday to put one on that entrance also.
    I am writing cday because there are several reasons to poiter, but still a yray shamayim should put a mezuza to these entrances since they lead to the house.
    I hope I am not missing any important details on this picture, it is difficult to receive an accurate picture from the photo what exactly is the difference between the wall that combines the 1st [gate] and the second entrance.

    The second gate does enter the house. So since this leads into the house there is room to be machmir and place a mezuza on it.
    Thanks

    At a closer look of the third arrow it seems to be another sort of "arch-way" similar to the other arrows, you can see how it is rounded at the top. However what's behind that archway (i.e. where does it go to. Further in to the house?)

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher

By -
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

By -
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 ...
