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. Nor are we interested in those who said to use עפצים וקנקנתום וגומא ואין לשנות when they discussed specifically the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink. 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 ...
Yes ideally should have space but not sure if it needs correcting
ReplyDeleteThe "Hei" should be LARGE and written separate from the Shem. This is the consensus of our Gedolei Yisrael. Please see Minchat Shai, Ramah (R. Meir ha-Levy ben Todros Abulafia), and the Keter Aram Zovah.
ReplyDeleteIn order to correct it, the left edge of the "Hei" may be scraped slightly in order to reduce its width and separate it from the Shem.
The Yemenite Mesorah has no space after the ה, but seeing as this is not a Teimani Sefer Torah it should and can be corrected.
ReplyDeleteThe back of the lamed as well can be erased and rewritten further away from the hei.
ReplyDeletewould seem like the lamed is a better option since its slightly stretched anyway
