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?
Technically probably a שאלת תינוק, but I would hesitate to be machshir even with a Tinok because a protrusion on the top right signifies a ד whether upwards or righwards (see פתשגן הכתב mentioning the Gemara about תגיה דדל"ת). But in this case the severe roundness of the letter in general might be a mitigating factor.
ReplyDeleteit seems to me that a kosher reish was written. a giant negia happened.had this been an aguna we can be metzaref the smak that once a letter was written kosher it cannot become pasul. However i am sure that if you check this parsha carefully you will find a psul.check all the dalets if they are not zeins and vise versa
ReplyDeleteThere was no negia. The sofer clearly has/had a problem with writing Reish's this way. I was shown 2. One was ok and this one I wouldn't be machshir unless told otherwise by an posek mumcheh.
