Yud without a Rosh?
Regel and kotz but no Rosh?
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

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
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?
אני סובר שיש להחמיר ולפסול
ReplyDeletethere IS a Rosh!
ReplyDeleteאיני רואה שום סיבה לפסול
Did you miss the word "lo"? (sorry I use a blackberry, I don't have hebrew fonts on my phone)
DeleteThe Tagim of ה should be fixed
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't make a fuss with the tagin in such a ksav. However, the Mem in Shma should be fixed (the bottom right squared.)
DeleteBased on seeing 1 Shin, I wouldn;t be surprised if he has an issue with the left rosh not being on the right side (Ari)
כ׳ להדיא במשנת הסופר שאם יש רק רגל וקוץ בלי ראש, יש לפסול, אף שקשה לפעמים להגדיר מתי הוא באמת ראש בשיפוע ומתי הוא באמת רק קוץ.
ReplyDeleteמשו״ה, בתמונה הזו היה נדמה לי לפסול אבל משום שזה לא קל להגדיר בגלל זה שאלתי פה מה דעת אחרים בזה.
אולי אתה טוען שבמקרה הזה אינה כרגל וקוץ בלי ראש. אבל אני לא מסכים בזה. זה ברור לי שפה יש רק גולם אחד אם קוץ קטן קטן למעלה ועוד קוץ קטן קטן בצד שמאל.
There is absolutely a Rosh.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, just because the Regel is fat does not mean there is no Rosh. Secondly, the kotz is the corner of a ROSH!!!
Thirdly, look at the top, the Rosh definitely protrudes to the left of the Tag.
This is Kosher. Certainly fixable.
You need to look at how the regel is shaped and where it attached to where the "Rosh" would be. I will delete the kotzim and post again and you will see that what is left is one golem with no discernible Rosh.
