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
according Radach it is defintly chok tochos [I think the keset hasofer is machmir at least lechatchila], but in the hai mentioned others may also machmir since the left foot was finished as a pasul it must be totaly erased, but the gag may be left because the right part of the hay wasn't finished. (If I remember correctly, there is a chatam sofer speaking about this ?)
ReplyDeleteIf it is nogeya I can search the chatam sofer.
Once you erase the left regel and all you have is a gag there is no tzuros ha-ois so why would you have to also erased that?
Deletecorrect !!
DeleteIf you could post the Chasam Sofer I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Deletedoes this apply if i first wrote the bottom part of the left regel, and afterwards added the top part (and rounding out the left side), and that's when it connected to the gag (ksav ari), is it clear what i'm saying?
DeleteIf the hay was written backwards - first the left foot then the gag, so the negiya occurred while making the gag. If so the gag was written bi'pisul - and in this case the gag [and not the left foot] must be erased.
Deleteno, i'm sorry i wasn't clear enough. first i wrote the gag then the bottom port of the left regel then the top part of the left regel
DeleteIf so as explained above only the left foot should be erased, the gag is OK.
