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
The reish is a shaylas tinok, and if read reish must be fixed by adding dyo.
ReplyDeleteThe tav to my opinion is pasul.
22 years ago I had this same type of Tav in my own Tefillin and I changed the Parsha but It was sent to Sampson in London who was Machshir and added a little ink on the back of the right regel and very slightly made the bottom of the rosh 1/2mm thicker.
ReplyDeleteLooking at this picture again and again I can see that both raglayim are not coming out of the same spot and there is a small revach.
Based upon my experience I would be Noiteh to pass it as okay.
It has no other Tzurah other then a Tav.
I am not a Moreh Horaah and would still send this in for Top level advice.
Just sharing my own story.
"It has no other Tzurah other then a Tav."
DeleteTo me it looks like a Tzadi Hafucha.
you would never pass this tzurah as a Tzadi!!!!
DeleteI was only passing on my own past experience.
If you add a little ink to the kav of the right regel you would not have such an odd looking Tav. It is only because the bottom has a Blita that it looks funny.
I am not convinced this is a Pusul Tav.
I would like to see the leading letters of this word or better the whole item. Looks like (Beitoi)
tav with 2 feet bent:on can argue this is similar to the ches of vechara and the mikdash meat feels that its similar to tav-I wouls agree that tinok can help ,however including the point on the inside It seems like a real shunui tzura
DeleteReish is a shailos tinnok. R' Shammai would say the same lifi what I've seen by him in the past. This is what the Mikdash Ma'at already says is a shailos tinnok.
ReplyDeleteThe Tav I personally am in sofek if it's a shailos tinnok or pasul. I'm more noteh to say it's a shailos tinnok. Again lifi what I was makabel from R' Shammai in similar shailos (that it's a shailos tinnok.) He said it becomes more of a problem of the 2 legs come mamash to a point together at the gag (in the middle or if one one regel is all the way to the right and the other regel is slanted meeting it at a point.) Here you see you don't have that and there is a little bit of space in between. Leaving me to believe he would also say it's a shailos tinnok.
Perhaps somebody here can draw the correct steps of correcting this reish with ink!
ReplyDeletestart from the bottom - dont dare do it from the top !!!!!
ReplyDeleteif you did it from the top in one movement it should still be kosher according to some opinions
