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
I think that's a reason some give to put the חוטרא of the ח all the way at the end on the left instead of directly on top of the left regel.
ReplyDeleteOne could also argue that if we avoid making a שתי וערב in the kesher, קל וחומר in the Parshiyos, but יש לחלק.

ReplyDeleteyou are absolutely right klausenberger rav was against doing the chatotra of ches above regel ,but keses in lishkas does holdthat it belongs above regel
ReplyDeleteYes of course many Poskim hold that way. I was just giving a makor for your question.
DeleteThis could be an issue that depends on the time-and-place context. In Muslim, Oriental or African cultures, where the Shesi Veorev has no meaning, it could be fine, but then there might other symbols that would be condemned, symbols that are meaningless here
ReplyDeleteI remember when Rabbi Greenfeld opened Mishmeres Stam in Boro Park 40 years ago, he had a display of typically bad Mezuzos found during Bedikos. One, from a doorway in Yerushalayim, was evidently placed there by missionaries. In the place of every set of Tagin, there was a cross, atop the letter.
