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...
I wrote in the title of this post MENAMNEM because this probably caused this ink smear. But just wanted to know how big the problem is.
ReplyDeleteThe second shem is no problem to fix, but in the first shem the pic is not clear enough, so I dont know if the hey has lost its tzura or not.
ReplyDeleteIf it has lost its tzura you can erase it [mevatel tzuras haois]. But, if it is clearly a hay, if there is no negiya of the left foot to the gag or the right foot, you can clean out the inside, but if the left foot is nogea to the gag you are in a big problem, and you have to mekalef the shem.
