vuv with a non clear rosh
Take a look at the 2 vuvs in the picture, are they kosher ? if not can they be fixed?
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

Not a "khaf"
This gave me a "Safrut smile"... OK, I realise that this is not Ktav STaM, however it is interesting what happens when graphic/font Hebrew becomes too stylised. Case-in-point, a colleague and I were visiting the mayor's office in the Gaza Belt region of Shaar HaNegev (adjoining Sderot). He is new to reading Hebrew and pronounced the welcome sign as " brooning " or " broobing " (instead of the intended " brookhim ". I replied that he was more correct than the graphic designer, as the letter meant to be a " khaf " was closer to a halakhic "Nun" or "Bet", and had this been Ktav STaM, the letter would likely be considered pasul as a "Khaf".
תיבה מיותרת במזוזה
תיבה יתירה בסת"ם פוסלת. ולא מועיל כאן גרירת היתר, כי ישאר שיעור ט' אותיות [קטנות עכ"פ] והוא שיעור ריוח פרשה סתומה באמצע הפרשה. ועל כן צריכה המזוזה הזאת גניזה. דרך אגב: ככל הנראה המזוזה הזאת לא עברה הגהה כלל !!! (קשה לי להניח שמגיה לא ישים לב לדבר כזה)
To me it looks like the rosh is each vav is slanted, but there is a point that I can distinguish a rosh and regel - even though it's not a 90 degree angle, it looks like maybe 120 degrees, but still an angle.
ReplyDeleteThe slants of the rosh look like a lot and it looks like the regel is half the length of the total height of the vav, even though the total height is 3 kulmusim (ie rosh = 1, slant of the rosh = 0.5 and regel = 1.5).
There's one yud present in this picture which has a regel of 1 kulmus - to me it looks clearly distinct from the vavim.
the vavim are kosher and you may fix them.
