Klaff Tanning question:
I received this question via email. I am not really a klaf expert, I was wondering if anyone could answer this question: Dear Rabbi Gutnick, I am writing to you because a good friend of mine has put the idea into my head that the klaf in my tefillin were not really tanned and therefore are not kosher. He referred me to Megilla 19a re diftera. From the research that I have done so far, it seems that the klaf that is used today is tanned only with a lime wash. On all of the tanning websites I’ve seen so far, they say that the lime doesn’t accomplish tanning but only the removal of the hair and some other pre-tanning effects. Would you be able to explain to me or refer me to a website that explains how the tanning process that is used today takes the hide out of the category of diftera? Thank you very much.
Rabbi Reuvain Mendlowitz clarifies his position on Ksav Chabad (and my final thoughts)
Last week I posted some thoughts in response to a public lecture given by Rabbi Reuvain Mendlowitz regarding Ksav Chabad (the Alter Rebbe's ksav). I felt he did not represent the issue fairly, and since I had received questions about it from a number of people I felt it made sense to write a general response. After I posted my response on this forum, Rabbi Mendlowitz reached out to me by email and we ended up having a respectful and productive email exchange regarding the relevant issues surrounding Ksav Chabad. His position is a lot clearer to me now, and I think he also took certain things on board that I clarified with him. The purpose of the Stam Forum (at least back in it's heyday before all the whats app groups took over) was to connect sofrim from around the world, to promote achdus and build bridges, as well as to offer support and advice. In that spirit, I felt I should write a follow up post, to clarify some of the issues and misconception...
You take out all the fun if the file name is the mistake.

But where do you see the file name when it's posted on the blog?
DeleteRight click the picture and click on "view image" or similar option and look at the address line (or whatever its called). Or right click and choose "save image" and see the name of the file. Sometimes its enough to hover with the mouse over the image and looking at the status bar on bottom - like in the post with the three mezuzas a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteI understand that - or by clicking on "Properties", you can see it as well. But who asked you to click on anything?... Leave the mouse alone - and just read! - Then I won't be taking any fun away from you!...
DeleteOK but sometimes I open the picture in a separate tab to enlarge it, like in the case of the three mezuzas, and then I see the file name (for some reason in this post the picture didn't enlarge). I'll try next time not to look.
DeleteI don't think I have any other option. I have so many files accumilated through the years of various problems found in Tefillin & Mezuzahs, that I must give it as clear a name as possible, or else I'll never be able to find any files.
DeleteHi Shea,
DeleteJust rename them prior to uploading.
its fixable
ReplyDeletebut you would want to stretch the tuf a little so the revach is less than 3 yudin. be careful not to make ponim chadashos. it also might look ugly when thickened
DeleteThat's exactly what was done.

ReplyDeleteReb Shea, could you send me some more of your mezuzah scans? I could really use the practice.
