  • Should Bakeries Which Are Open on Shabbat Be Supervised? a Response to the Rabinowitz-Weisberg Opinion RABBI HOWARD HANDLER
    Should Bakeries Which are Open on Shabbat Be Supervised? A Response to the Rabinowitz-Weisberg Opinion RABBI HOWARD HANDLER This paper was submitted as a response to the responsum written by Rabbi Mayer Rabinowitz and Ms. Dvora Weisberg entitled "Rabbinic Supervision of Jewish Owned Businesses Operating on Shabbat" which was adopted by the CJLS on February 26, 1986. Should rabbis offer rabbinic supervision to bakeries which are open on Shabbat? i1 ~, '(l) l'\ (1) The food itself is indeed kosher after Shabbat, once the time required to prepare it has elapsed. 1 The halakhah is according to Rabbi Yehudah and not according to the Mishnah which is Rabbi Meir's opinion. (2) While a Jew who does not observe all the mitzvot is in some instances deemed trustworthy, this is never the case regarding someone who flagrantly disregards the laws of Shabbat, especially for personal profit. Maimonides specifically excludes such a person's trustworthiness regarding his own actions.2 Moreover in the case of n:nv 77n~ (a violator of Shabbat) Maimonides explicitly rejects his trustworthiness. 3 No support can be brought from Moshe Feinstein who concludes, "even if the proprietor closes his store on Shabbat, [since it is known to all that he does not observe Shabbat], we assume he only wants to impress other observant Jews so they will buy from him."4 Previously in the same responsum R. Feinstein emphasizes that even if the person in The Committee on Jewish Law and Standards of the Rabbinical Assembly provides guidance in matters of halakhah for the Conservative movement.

  • Introduction to Tractate Terumot
    Introduction to Tractate Terumot The Tractate deals with the rules of Great Heave and heave of the tithe, as given in Num. 18:8-32. Great Heave is the gift of the farmer to the Cohen at the time the produce is ready for storage; this heave has no minimum prescribed by biblical law. Heave of the tithe is given to the Cohen by the Levite from his tithe; it must be exactly ten percent. The rules of the heaves are complicated since heaves are sacred food available to any Cohen anywhere and, therefore, in danger of being mixed up with profane or impure food. Heave, as a gift to the Cohen, must be designated as such. Chapter One, dealing with the rules of designation, contains a discussion of the definitions and legal status of persons incompetent to designate: minors, deaf-mutes who cannot communicate, and the insane. Chapter Two discusses the groupings of food which can substitute for one another in the designation of heave. Chapter Three gives detailed rules in many special cases. Chapter Four deals with minimal and maximal amounts to be given as heave by rabbinic decree and with the heave obligations of partnerships. Since heave, as sacred food, must be eaten in ritual purity, the rabbinic amounts as well as the rules dealing with pure heave became obsolete when it was no longer possible to observe the rules of purity (cf. Berakhot Chapter 1, Note 3). Chapter Five 2 INTRODUCTION TERUMOT deals with the case that pure and impure heave became mixed; how to save a maximum amount of pure heave.

It happened that his sons came from a wedding feast. They said to him: We have not yet recited the Shema. He said to them: If it has not yet morned, you are obligated to recite it. Babylonian Talmud Berakhot 2a What is the context of the Mishnah’s opening “From when”? Also, why does it teach about the evening first, rather than about the morning? The context is Scripture saying “when you lie down and when you arise” (Devarim 6:7, 11:9). what the Mishnah intends is: “The time of the Shema of lying-down – when is it?” Alternatively: The context is Creation, as Scripture writes “There was evening and there was morning”. Mishnah Berakhot 1:1 (continued) Not only this – rather, everything about which the Sages say until midnight – their mitzvah is until morning. The burning of fats and organs – their mitzvah is until morning. All sacrifices that must be eaten in a day – their mitzvah is until morning.

  • The Talmud in Tractate Rosh Hashana, Based on Expositions of The
    yom kippur 5774 The Talmud in Tractate Rosh Hashana, based on expositions of the relevant verses, teaches us that there is an affirmative Mitzvah to eat and drink on the day prior to Yom Kippur until sunset, when the fast and the restrictions of the day begin. Indeed, the Talmud tells us that the reward for this feasting is equivalent to the reward for fasting on Yom Kippur itself. While it certainly is a wise practice for one who is about to commence a fast to fortify himself with food and drink, why does the Torah make it a special Mitzvah to do so? And why the great reward? Rabbi Yonah in his epic Mussar (Ethics) classic, Sharei Teshuva (4:8,9,10), provides a few reasons for this Mitzvah, two of which provide a particularly meaningful understanding of the Holiday. First, the feast before the fast recognizes the great opportunity Yom Kippur affords us to cleanse ourselves and draw ever closer to G-d. We effect a new reality for ourselves on Yom Kippur, one that anticipates and compels spiritual elevation. The feast before Yom Kippur is a celebration of this new reality and testifies to one’s longing to attain this additional intimacy. Second, it is critical that our inspirations not dissipate nor our commitments go unrealized. We need to conceive of strategies so that we do not fall prey as we have in the past and we must devise ways to ensure that our newly-inspired spiritual resolutions are actualized. This of course requires mental and physical energy.

  • Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach Today (?)
    Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach today (?) Three girls in Israel were detained by the Israeli Police (2018). The girls are activists of the “Return to the Mount” (Chozrim Lahar) movement. Why were they detained? They had posted Arabic signs in the Muslim Quarter calling upon Muslims to leave the Temple Mount area until Friday night, in order to allow Jews to bring the Korban Pesach. This is the fourth time that activists of the movement will come to the Old City on Erev Pesach with goats that they plan to bring as the Korban Pesach. There is also an organization called the Temple Institute that actively is trying to bring back the Korban Pesach. It is, of course, very controversial and the issues lie at the heart of one of the most fascinating halachic debates in the past two centuries. 1 The previous mishnah was concerned with the offering of the paschal lamb when the people who were to slaughter it and/or eat it were in a state of ritual impurity. Our present mishnah is concerned with a paschal lamb which itself becomes ritually impure. Such a lamb may not be eaten. (However, we learned incidentally in our study of 5:3 that the blood that gushed from the lamb's throat at the moment of slaughter was collected in a bowl by an attendant priest and passed down the line so that it could be sprinkled on the altar). Our mishnah states that if the carcass became ritually defiled, even if the internal organs that were to be burned on the altar were intact and usable the animal was an invalid sacrifice, it could not be served at the Seder and the blood should not be sprinkled.

  • Pharmacology and Dietetics in the Bible and Talmud Fred
    PHARMACOLOGY AND DIETETICS IN THE BIBLE AND TALMUD FRED ROSNER Introduction In his classic book on biblical and talmudic medicine, Julius Preuss devotes an entire chapter to materia medica and another chapter to dietetics, thereby accentuating the importance of these topics in Jewish antiquity and the middle ages. 1 Since numerous volumes could be written on either of these two vast subjects, this essay confines itself primarily to presentations of two examples of each topic. In regard to pharmacology in the Bible and Talmud, the famous balm of Gilead and the equally renowned biblical mandrakes will be discussed. As examples of dietetics, classic Jewish sources dealing with dairy products as well as chicken soup, the Jewish penicillin, will be cited. Pharmacology in Bible and Talmud One must be extremely careful in describing the pharmacology of antiquity. The entire system of dispensing drugs today is much simpler and more precise than even only a few decades ago. One need only compare the list of ingredients or length of prescriptions of one hundred years ago to a modern prescription. Medications described in the Bible and Talmud are mostly derived from the flora. However, numerous animal remedies were known to the talmudic Sages. For example, although honey was used to revive a person who fainted (? hypoglycemia), eating honey was thought to be harmful for wound healing. 2 A person with pain in the heart should suck goat's milk directly from the udder of the animal. 3 Someone bitten by a dog was given liver from that dog to eat4 as recommended by physicians in antiquity, perhaps an early form of immunotherapy.

  • Separating Terumah Tameh for Tahor
    בס"ד Volume 13. Issue 26 Separating Terumah Tameh for Tahor The beginning of masechet Terumot discusses separating The Tosfot (Yevamot 89a) first citesthe Rivan that cites the terumah gedolah – the first gift removed from produce and above pasuk as the source. The Tosfot reject this based on given to the kohanim. Specifically, the Mishnah begins by the Gemara cited above which explains that the cases discussing who is able to separate terumah and the manner derived from the pasuk would not be terumah at all, even in which it must be done. Many of the Mishnayot discuss be’shogeg. separating terumah from one pile or type of produce to satisfy the requirements of another. One case discussed (2:2) The Tosfot therefore brings three answer. First they cite is separating terumah from a tameh pile of produce for a Rashi who explains that the Chachamim forbad it since it tahor one. The Mishnah forbids such practice. If one would result in a loss for the Kohen. Had the person nonetheless does so, the Mishnah explains that if it was a separated from the tahor pile, the Kohen would have mistake (be’shogeg), e.g. he did not know it was tameh, then received edible produce. Since however the requirement was it is considered terumah. If however he acted deliberately, separated from tameh produce, the Kohen can only burn it then “he has done nothing”. We shall try an understand this and therefore loses out. Consequently, the Chachamim law. ideally prevented such practice. The Bartenura explains that we must understand that in this Second they suggest that perhaps the Chachamim instituted Mishnah the produce was tameh after the point it because a gezeira including these cases where there was a shaat obligated in separating maasrot.
