Klaff Tanning question:
I received this question via email. I am not really a klaf expert, I was wondering if anyone could answer this question: Dear Rabbi Gutnick, I am writing to you because a good friend of mine has put the idea into my head that the klaf in my tefillin were not really tanned and therefore are not kosher. He referred me to Megilla 19a re diftera. From the research that I have done so far, it seems that the klaf that is used today is tanned only with a lime wash. On all of the tanning websites I’ve seen so far, they say that the lime doesn’t accomplish tanning but only the removal of the hair and some other pre-tanning effects. Would you be able to explain to me or refer me to a website that explains how the tanning process that is used today takes the hide out of the category of diftera? Thank you very much.
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?
I think the second letter looks like a ן.

ReplyDeleteוכן נראה דעת המקדש מעט, שמותר לתקנו. אבל כל זמן שלא תיקנו אין להכשיר
DeleteSORRY ,I reviewed mikdash me-at and he is machmir by nun sofit.
ReplyDeleteFood for thought:
וימת תרח בחרן has a nun hafucha
we may understand that it is a kosher letter but the foot is not centered as regular nun but comes out of left side.or we may understand that if not for the kabula this would be posul letter.
אתה צודק. משמעות המקדש מעט דפסול ולא מהני תיקון בראש הפוך

Not sure what you mean. A nun hafucha is added to the words. It's not a letter at all. It's a symbol (like to nekuda on top of some Osiyos) in the shape of a nun hafucha.
Deletethere are many minhagim how to make the nun hafucha see the recent קובץ חצי גברים for examples
Deleteאדה"ז פוסק בשו"ע סימן ל"ו סעיף א
ReplyDelete"אבל אם שינה לא פסל אלא א"כ הפסיד צורת האות לגמרי"
אולם הרב משה ויינר כאן פוסק:
אין כאן שינוי גמור בצורתה, כל זמן שלא תיקנו אין להכשיר! ומ"מ נראה לי נכון לדינא דמהני תיקון
אינני יודע מה דעת שו"ע אדמה"ז בשאלה זו - של נו"ן פשוטה
ReplyDeleteהשאלה שלפנינו תלויה בשתי בעיות שדנו האחרונים
א. מה דין נו"ן פשוטה שראשה כוי"ו ולא כזיי"ן
ב. מה דין נו"ן אם ראשה הפוך
לכן לדעתי בשתי מקרים הללו להחמיר שלא להכשיר כמו שהו, אבל להתיר לתקנן שלא כסדרן, ועל דרך שיטת הצמח צדק בנוגע לכ"ף פשוטה מרובעת, ובדין יוד"י האל"ף שנדבקו יותר מדי לגג
There is a slight rosh on the left side. The question is whether this is sufficient to save it from appearing like a nun hafuch, which is pasul according to the MM. The taller, albeit narrow, head on the left side makes it stand out more, which may be a hatzala.
ReplyDeleteclarification- makes in stand out more meaning, makes the left side of the head more noticeable than if it would have been the same height as the right side
