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
R. Moshe, what you wrote "In ST you may scrape away the whole yud and rewrite it" doesn't sound right. That should be right only if the top yud was written last. If the top yud was written first than you have to scrape out the whole letter. Unless there is some other דעה that I am not aware of.
ReplyDeleteSholom, you are right I wasn't medayek at all in this sentence. I only menat that in a ST the problem can be taken care of by scraping the passul parts of the letter.
DeleteYou are right, usualy this will call for scraping the gag and not the yud, but these details vary according to the seder of the csiva and when and what type of pisul occurred.
I was wondering why this may not be considered kosher since the is only a tag that is touching if someone can enlighten me i would be grateful
ReplyDeleteI believe that if the guf haos is not touching only throught a tag then most poskim consider this to be kosher
Deletetheoretically you are correct, but since the nekuda is so close to the gag and connected, the hollow inside is barely noticeable [the picture is very enlarged] therefore it may be considered as completely touching and pasul.
