Special Megillah tikkunim

By -
Hello all,
Does anyone have a tikkun for a 28-line Megillat Ester without the 10 B'nei Haman in their own 'amud?

In other words, a tikkun which conforms to the Chassam Sofer's p'sak (the Gr"a may be interpreted this way as well)

    That is exactly what the Gaon says, not merely an interpretation (so long as the Aseres Bnei Haman are at the bottom of the amud). You could try or.lasofer1@gmail.com

      Most of the Gr"a megillot I've seen are 11 lines, so that the b'nei Haman still get their own 'amud.

      On the other hand, the p'sak I received from R' Hamburger שליט”א does not specify a placement within the 'amud for them.

      The 11-line is just an attempt to fulfill both the opinion of the Gra that the 10 Bnei Haman should be written with the same size letters as well as the common practice that the 10 Bnei Haman get their own column. The Gra himself had a Megillah that had (many?) more than 11 lines per column, with the 10 Bnei Haman at the bottom of the column in which they happened to be, as R' Avi said. According to other opinions the 10 Bnei Haman should be at the top of the column, and according to others, as you say, it doesn't matter where in the column they are.

      I don't recall an opinion that it can be anywhere on the column

דיוחנן - kosher rapidograph ink.... Experiences or comments pls

By -

I recently tried this kosher ink for my rapidograph and I am extremely pleased with it. It does not clog the nib like other kosher rapidograph inks, and it's very dark and strong. It's at least as good as the Rotring commercial grade rapidograph inks (of course these can only be used with batch numbers that have been lab tested and  approved kosher),  and in addition you do not need to add a drop of regular Sta"m ink (as per the instruction of the Shevet Halevi, which is messy and time consuming).  I was wondering if anyone else had an opinion or comments with regards to their experience with this ink...

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher

By -
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 OK's Hechsher on STa"M....Will it work?

By -
In today’s day and age, virtually every kosher product available to the consumer comes with a hechsher. By hechsher, I mean an official and recognised rabbinical body or agency that certifies the kashrus of a product, be it a food item or a religious article. Hechsherim play a vital role in providing consumer confidence, and something branded by a reputable kashrus agency will be considered more legitimate than a similar product that does not. The agency has rigid policies and protocols in place to ensure correct standards are met, and they are independent of the manufacturer so that there is no conflict of interest. As we have discussed on this forum previously, there is a distinct lack of official hechsherim on Sta”m products - Tefillin, Mezuzos and Sifrei Torah. Even the Vaad Mishmeres Sta”m, the oldest and most well- known rabbinic agency in the Sta”m world does not certify products. They test and ordain sofrim and magihim (examiners), offer a computer checking service (sp...
