Tzadik shaalo
Should I fix this Tzadi or I should leave it as it is?
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)
I'd fix it
ReplyDeleteIt is lechatchila as is. I'd add a tiny drop of ink to the bottom right corner. You can also make it nicer if you straighten out the bottom.
ReplyDeleteDo you mean the positioning of the right Yud, or that the left one is a Vav instead of a Zayin (like the Ayin) ? Or both?
ReplyDeletethe overall tzura looks different than the standard. I guess a combination of the two factors you mentioned
DeleteThere is nothing wrong with the Yud part. I refer to the left head so it should be like a Zayin.
ReplyDeleteYes, I will fix that
