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.

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?
First time I see Lameds with a sharp top-right corner
ReplyDeleteצורת הלמ"ד הזו אינו לכתחילה [בשום כתב, גם לא בכתב ספרדי
ReplyDeleteI've (re)discussed this Rav Friedlander when this matter was posted here some months ago and, as I think I mentioned then, he was very adamant that the widely accepted psak is that, assuming the negiah is suffcient, it is pasul. I can't tell from this image if the connection is enough to pasel.
ReplyDeleteA lamed with a round corner is lechatchila. (see kesiva tama) Many Ashkenazi sofrim put the right tag on the corner making it worse than just a plain square corner yet As a magia, in a mehudar ksav, I will add a little ink to the right to create a new round corner.
