sofek hey
However we might be more lenient since there is no shita that this is a hay lechatchila as in the m'a cse where the rashb"a holds that foot of hay belongs inward
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

Bizarre! Mezuzah found written in כתב העברי הקדום
Does anyone know the story of this "mezuzah"? Pictures if it are circulating, with people saying it was found on someone's house (even though in the picture it looks like it has never been rolled).
Someone else said they saw it for sale in a Judaica shop.
Sounds like a practical joke to me, but there's nothing funny about it.

Commercially Viable
This video shows a sofer writing a sefer Torah. This sofer has a good hand, writes at a nice pace, and can ask a decent price. But one can also tell how the sefer Torah industry has commercialised the process, allowing for better productivity.
Note the following:
1) The sofer is writing on a light table, which means he does not have to worry about planning the spacing and can just trace over the letters. This saves a lot of time. This also minimises mistakes and saves time of repairs.
2) The quill is a plastic kulmos with a repository, which means you need to dip it into the ink every few lines instead of every few letters. Also you do not need to sharpen it and make new quills. Both of these save time.
3) The klaf today is more refined and smooth, easier to write on. Not uneven and rough like the old days. I'm sure lots of "mei klaf" is added. This enhances writing speed and quality of writing.
4) Double sirtut. Again this enhances quality and neatness.
5) The tagin / …

אני מכסה כל מה שחוץ לחלל הכ"ף ושואל תינוק, אם קורא לזה כ"ף - אין בעיה
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that the dot in chof peshutah happened after the lamed was written.
ReplyDeleteMust I still cover the lamed while asking the shailos tinok?
That doesn't make any difference. I am sure that the tinok will read it kosher!
ReplyDeleteשו"ע אדה"ז סי' לב סעי' כ - ...ומכאן אתה למד שא"צ לכסות מלפניו שאר האותיות כמו שנוהגים
ReplyDeleteפירוש שא"צ לכסות שאר האותיות, ולחשוש שמא מחמת שיראה אותן יבין מהו האות שבשאלה - כי מיירי בתינוק דלחול"ט. אבל האות עצמה שנשאל צריך להראותה כולה, ולהסיר דבר שעלול לבלבל קריאתו. וכאן גוף הלמ"ד אינו מכלל השאלה, כי השאלה היא רק על הכ"ף, ולכן צריך להסתיר הלמ"ד כדי שלא יפריע לתינוק לראות אם כ"ף זו היא כ"ף או ה"א.

ReplyDeleteמשנה ברורה סי' לב ס"ק קלב
Deleteמקדש מעט סי' לב ס"ק נו
גם המקדש מעט הוא באותו ענין של המ"ב בנוגע ללמ"ד לחלל כ"ף או דלי"ת
Deleteקל וחומר למקרה שלפנינו שהלמ"ד מבלבל הקורא לענין הנקודה הקטנה שבתוך חללה של כ"ף
תודה
ReplyDeleteהמקדש מעט אינו כרגע תח"י
אבל המשנה ברורה מדבר על למ"ד שנכנס "לתוך חלל" האות
לא נראה לי שראש הלמ"ד כאן נכנסת לתוך חלל הך', א"כ מנין שצריך להסתירו
