is the small blitah on the bottom of the vov in any way a chshash of being a possible moshav and therefore possibly a nun?
Its the vov from uvechol
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.

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 ...
The Vav is Kasher
ReplyDeleteL'dati kosher. However while sitting by R' Shammai a sofer came with a vav that had a small blita at the bottom and told him to ask a tinnok. I didn't understand the psak at all until he said to me "and if you would have to be a Nun, what would you say?". I suppose it that particular case it looked more like a Nun (than this picture here.) If I'm able to I'll print this out to bring however I think over here there is no sofek and if it would have to be Nun it'd surely be pasul. Therefore as it as as a vav there is no problem.
ReplyDeleteI just updated the post because the picture is a bit blurry, while I tried blowing it up as much as possible, you don't see that the inside of the blita on the bottom of the vov its sqare ie 90 degree angle which made me worry a little
ReplyDeleteThe Sofrim here at Beis Hastam agree to Reb Shamai
