What is the din in this parshiya? The person told me he "had it checked before and it was kosher"... doesn't the spacing pasul the Tefillin though?
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?
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 ...
Since there is 9 letters blank space (and here much more) it is posul. Hagos R" Akiva Eger(yoreh deah 275) allows to fix through placing holes in the empty space to make it not fit for writing on, therefore it would not be considered a shiyur parsha and would be kosher.
ReplyDeleteIs there holes in the blank space (can not tell from the picture)?
In any case some Rabbinical authorities do not use this heter lechatchila(R" Moshe wrote about this in an earlier post and mentioned that according to the S A HaRav it requires very visible holes, which are not done big enough most of the time).
However I believe post facto i.e the holes were already made, all will rely on it at least bidieved.
Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThere is no holes, they just erased the extra words I guess.
In any case, it is pasul since I found a psul in a different parshiya...but thanks for the clarification
