Transcript
- 0:00Good morning. We're continuing with Kutsa di
- 0:03Hetzito Jos Katzitza sif mem alef.
- 0:07I'm of Shalit Benali al Huraira Kashi al Ruma Vitavla.
- 0:11So the woman goes into the mikvah, right?
- 0:14She's not wearing anything, but she's she has her child on her
- 0:18back piggyback ride and then and that's how she goes into the
- 0:22mikvah. So that's what I was to say.
- 0:25Vitavla lo alta la tavila. The tavila's no good.
- 0:29You say? She has to dip again.
- 0:31Why? Because shamaya teet the
- 0:34raghleya tinok OB a dove. Cause it's a child.
- 0:38And so it's normal for them to have dirt, dirt or mud or
- 0:42something stuck to their their feet, their hands, the nidbach,
- 0:47the IMO. And then it gets stuck to her
- 0:49mother, the khatzat Tavila, and it's a khatzita, the akhar sha
- 0:56alta nafa. So even if she checks
- 0:59afterwards, it doesn't help because it's after the fact.
- 1:03And it could be that there was the khatsita, the mud on her
- 1:07before she went in and when she was in and then when she got
- 1:11out, between getting out and checking, it came off.
- 1:14Just needs a second to fall off. So therefore it's it's a
- 1:18problem. So she has to dip again, Ma'am.
- 1:21Bet. OK, So it's a question by the
- 1:25Evid if it's a problem, Barry, to write the quotes to Bach, who
- 1:28says it might work by the Evid, But I don't know.
- 1:35You mean, yeah, you can have someone else check the child and
- 1:38make sure the child doesn't touch anything or get off.
- 1:41Yeah, right. If you check and you know for
- 1:45sure, I'm assuming you're OK by the Evid.
- 1:49But you have to be certain. OK, man, but that's that's a
- 1:53lot. You shouldn't.
- 1:54You shouldn't. OK, man, bet Nick in a suit.
- 1:58Sarurat Oxami Vistaki Raglia Milamata.
- 2:01What's it seem if the a woman when she goes into the mikvah
- 2:06and there's, I don't know, pebbles, little sticks, little
- 2:09splinters, whatever it is, little pieces of wood, anything
- 2:13that's between her toes or stuck anywhere.
- 2:16It is here in the bottom whatever top all discussion, but
- 2:20bottom line anywhere it is hotsitzin.
- 2:24OK, non bet mengem hasplanit milugma ratiyasha al batte
- 2:30hastarim hotsitzin. So any bandages even in beta
- 2:35starium or a hatsita alpha Pisha enam Sri himshikan subaham
- 2:40hamayim, even though water doesn't have to actually get
- 2:43inside the beta starium. Hey, we're going to see this, so
- 2:46I'll just recap Beta styium, right?
- 2:48That's places where water could technically get to, right?
- 2:53You can open them up. You can look inside depending if
- 2:56you, you know, open, spread out your arms or whatever it is,
- 3:00open up your mouth and that water needs to be rahuluviat
- 3:06Mayan water has to be able to get there.
- 3:08But whatever is balua, water doesn't have to.
- 3:12There's no problems of khatsitsa if it's balua.
- 3:15Anything that's completely inside the body and it's
- 3:19surrounded by, you know, some kind of any part of your body
- 3:23where it doesn't matter how you move, it's always gonna be
- 3:26surrounded on all sides. That's balua.
- 3:29And that is not even a problem if there's a khatsitsa with
- 3:33that. So Alabishenam Srikhim in Sheikh
- 3:36and subahrama mine Sheikh and shira uyim Belo yeh Abrahams of
- 3:40our code states. So any beta styrene is as a
- 3:44problem if there is a khatita there and it has to be able for
- 3:48water to be there. If you were to like open up your
- 3:50mouth for example. OK, that's plenty.
- 3:53That's a small bandage here. Let's keep reading.
- 3:57Hagah yeesh omrim shaisha srikalahati O mine called them
- 4:03to be gum. Wait, sorry, sorry, imhit srika.
- 4:09So the first thing is anytime someone needs to relieve
- 4:13themselves, they hear it's to urinate but needs to relieve
- 4:17themselves. They should definitely do so.
- 4:20It's a kashash of an actual khatsita.
- 4:24I don't know, maybe it's explained, perhaps the body's is
- 4:30it constricts, it constricts itself more than normal in order
- 4:34to prevent one from relieving themselves.
- 4:38So that's the Asiomery. And so therefore, if one needs
- 4:42to, they should relieve themselves before the actual
- 4:44dipping gum. Srika livdog, Atsma, Bagadoli,
- 4:48Mubakatani, Shalotta hates srika lots or atsma.
- 4:51And so the Rama adds. And therefore it's better to try
- 4:55just, you know, try before you go into the mikvah to relieve
- 4:59oneself so that when they actually go into the mikvah, all
- 5:02of a sudden suddenly they they need to go and it's like bad
- 5:05timing. So OK, below you, right?
- 5:09We all know about that kids getting into the road trips with
- 5:11their kids. So anyways, below you UIM libiya
- 5:14at mayim gum srikalahasir. So at a hotel, OK, below you
- 5:23UIML be at mayim. That goes on the first part and
- 5:26then gum and that's it's a question, but the the postgame
- 5:32say it's OK even if she did need to, it's not a real khatiza me
- 5:37Ikar hiden la maisa, but that's what one should do.
- 5:42And then the second, the last part is gum Srikala Hasir.
- 5:47So at a hotam 1 should also remove anything from crust or
- 5:53anything, that's what do you call it, a mucus or whatever, a
- 5:57hard mucus by the nostrils that. So anything that's visible that
- 6:03and is for sure a problem of khatsitsa.
- 6:07And perhaps if it's stuck and it's hard, one should even have
- 6:10to go again. So anything that's visible,
- 6:14anything that's just a little bit inside, it's like Khatila,
- 6:18one should just clean a little bit.
- 6:20And so the beginning of the nostril.
- 6:22So anyways, discussed in the post game how far 1 needs to to
- 6:26try and clean a little bit up the nostrils a little bit is
- 6:29bait astarium. And so that's a question of how
- 6:32much 1 needs to La Hachila and obviously deeper up or you know,
- 6:38it's more difficult to get to then if everyone agrees for sure
- 6:41you don't need to. And again, inside the nostrils
- 6:44in general, 1 is not mock pit unless it's it's really stuffed
- 6:48or it's there's really some some stuff there that's really
- 6:50bothering you. You know, whatever is normal
- 6:54that you, you know, you take a shower, you take a bath, then
- 6:56that's what you normally remove. That's a bigger issue.
- 7:00Whatever is less whatever you generally not mock Pidan and
- 7:04it's not visible, that's less of an issue.
- 7:06And as you go deeper into the nostril, it's going to soon turn
- 7:09into Balua just as a side point, just to stress that.
- 7:14OK, so that is that's that we're going to talk about it.
- 7:19So I'll just mentioned the postman also talk about ears
- 7:23that one only needs to clean the outside visible part of the
- 7:26ears. And you know, wherever you put
- 7:29your finger in, you know, to to your ear to clean or whatever it
- 7:32is. That part is 1 cleans.
- 7:35It's basically visible where your finger goes to.
- 7:37And then beyond that, one does not need to clean out and one
- 7:42should not put, you know, use. Whether one should use Q-tips or
- 7:47not, we won't discuss, but one should certainly not.
- 7:51One certainly does not need to use Q-tips.
- 7:53And perhaps they're not good in general, but one does not need
- 7:56to go deep into their ear to clean away wax.
- 7:59Memdalid Haitabhat haitabhat Ostein lamaka, rosha mudbak
- 8:07lamaka. So before earlier in the Simon
- 8:10we learned about, you know, tying knots with your head, with
- 8:13your hair. That's not what we're talking
- 8:15about over here. Not an issue of knots.
- 8:17It's an issue of the strands of hair themselves are going to be
- 8:22stuck with something with, you know, it's gets completely
- 8:25stuck. It's hard.
- 8:26It's stuck to something else, to each other, to the maca,
- 8:30whatever it is, it's to the even to your own body or to the maca,
- 8:36correct. So, but it's stuck.
- 8:38So then OSHA Ayush Desai wrote Roshan Mudbaka petite or it's
- 8:42stuck together with with a mud or some kind of dirt or bitsoa
- 8:47also some kind of dirt perhaps like from sweat.
- 8:49Whatever it is, OSHA, how you stay, I wrote berisa berise Enya
- 8:54Mila Mata vinaka. They're stuck in eyelashes,
- 9:03whether below top, if they're stuck in any way, right, We're
- 9:06not talking about knots, we're talking about it's just stuck on
- 9:09to each other or to your skin or what have you, and it's stuck
- 9:13with. So then the hen Emmayush Desai
- 9:15wrote Reese a national Mata mudbakot berisi, Reese a
- 9:19national mala or your bottom stuck to the top eyelashes.
- 9:23Hurry, elu kotzatzim. All these cases are Katsitza,
- 9:27and even if it's two, because the problem is they're stuck
- 9:29together sideways, one to another, it's not different than
- 9:33what we learned about a not on itself where it's two or more.
- 9:37Mika Redin is not a Hatsi itself.
- 9:40So let's go to mem. Hey, what happens if she goes to
- 9:47the She's not supposed to go to the mikvah with dirt dust on her
- 9:53feet, on the bottom of her feet, on top of her feet.
- 9:55But let's say she did Yeh Misha Omersheh Enoch Joseitz, yeh
- 9:59Misha Omersheh Joseitz Ellie inkin Shifshefa or Shetabla
- 10:04Bahamin. So it's a mahlokit.
- 10:06Do we have to worry that maybe it was cleaned off or not
- 10:10because it could turn into it gets wet, could turn into mud
- 10:14and it could be stuck to her skin and it could be a hatsitsa.
- 10:17So that's the question. Are we Koshish that it became,
- 10:21you know, basically stuck and it doesn't come off and it turns
- 10:24into it is a khatsitsa? Or do we assume even with cold
- 10:28water it came off? But everybody agrees if she, you
- 10:33know, scrubs, rubs her feet or her body right there, she soaks
- 10:38in hot water or the mikvah is hot and as she goes in, it's
- 10:42going to come off. So everyone agrees as long as
- 10:44the mikvah is warm or she takes a warm bath, shower, it's all
- 10:48going to come off. And so it's not a problem member
- 10:52Nida Shetavla begadia mutteret la baila.
- 10:57So if she goes to the mikvah with clothing on bidi avid it's
- 11:04winter, right? We all learned la khakila.
- 11:05We remove all clothing and clothing, jewelry, everything.
- 11:09Even if MI carden, it's not a hatsisa, but we say bidi avid,
- 11:13anything that's she wants it to be there and it's not a
- 11:16khatsitsa, anything that is loose, right?
- 11:19We're talking about loose clothing over here.
- 11:21So generally speaking, most of our clothing is loose.
- 11:24Obviously it depends what you wear, except for obviously tight
- 11:27undergarments and whatever. Whatever it is, as long as it's
- 11:30loose, it's not a problem. At least bidi ebid now.
- 11:37Yeah, it's only Bidi ebid because we learned from the very
- 11:40beginning we always take everything off anyway.
- 11:42So I just want to point out when a woman goes converts and goes
- 11:47to the mikvah, right, part of the process of conversion is
- 11:51going to the mikvah, right? There's kabalas O Mahuchemayim,
- 11:55there's Tavila, and there's Mila for males and a korban.
- 12:02I believe it's a korban ashram. You just you'll have to bring it
- 12:06when the base of Miklash is built.
- 12:07Anyways, one of So what? That's the process of converting
- 12:11and and how do you how do you do that?
- 12:14You anyways, it's a carbon, whatever it is.
- 12:17So then what do you do you for the mikvah, you have to do the
- 12:20mikvah in front of a Basdin of three men.
- 12:24So how is it normally done? So you can ask your local basin
- 12:28what they normally do. But I know that when I when I
- 12:32went to when I sat in with the basdin in New York without Ben
- 12:37Kleim. So the way he does it is to be
- 12:41makhbir for two possibilities. So one is she goes into the
- 12:47mikvah with a robe. So there's so the the Balanito's
- 12:50another woman who makes sure she's all good and clean and
- 12:53everything she goes in, but she always she wears A robe the
- 12:56entire time the bazed in sees her go in.
- 13:00So she's completely covered and but it's loose and that's our
- 13:05halacha. So it's works Lekhadhila no
- 13:07problem. And then the bays and leaves
- 13:10completely and the ballenet the woman watches her dip again
- 13:15without the robe on. And yes, she's a naman Khan
- 13:19naman B surin. And so that's we did both
- 13:22possibilities. OK, let's let's do next Mem Zine
- 13:32mean kinim. She's wukim BA basar venoskimba
- 13:34or BA Malcolm sayar venbakimba Joseph BASAR.
- 13:38If a person has some kind of lice, I don't know, in the hair
- 13:42or on the body anywhere and it stuck to her skin.
- 13:45So first sarik LA hasiran ayude khamin LA Goran bitsi poran.
- 13:50So we can't be lazy. We need to soak in hot water and
- 13:55scrub it off and do what we can to make sure it's not there to
- 14:02remove it. Rahim Eno Yahoo lahs.
- 14:08But if there's no way to remove it and it's not, they're not
- 14:11going anywhere. She tries Ena Khadze.
- 14:14So they're like, that's not a Khadze because we assume a
- 14:18woman. Again, we learned she's not
- 14:20supposed to cause well, there's a fine line.
- 14:24I'm not going to it's hard to just to say it, but there's a
- 14:28fine line as far as she's not supposed, she's not supposed to
- 14:32injure herself. There needs to a little bit of
- 14:36when you remove a bandage, yes, sometimes it hurts a little bit.
- 14:39It rips. So there's a there's an element.
- 14:41So there there is obviously some tircha and a little bit of pain
- 14:45that is need to be done sometimes, but she's not
- 14:48supposed to hurt herself. She's not supposed to make
- 14:50herself bleed. It's and if it's something
- 14:53that's supposed to be there long term or she can't take it off
- 14:57like in this case. So there's a limit and whatever
- 15:00it's, it's a mute. And then we're assuming she's
- 15:02not mockbed at this point because there's nothing she can
- 15:04possibly do. She can never take it off.
- 15:06It's not physically possible for her.
- 15:08So therefore she, a woman, does not need to take sandpaper to
- 15:13her body and clean herself, right?
- 15:14We learned that we don't do that, and that's wrong.
- 15:18OK, so whatever is normal, whatever she can remove is a
- 15:21khatsitsa. Whatever she cannot is not.
- 15:24What should a woman do with the cast?
- 15:26So in general, I would say ask your of, but as a basic
- 15:30guideline, la khadhila, it is a khatsitsa.
- 15:35However, if it's going to stay on for a while and you can't get
- 15:40a removed temporarily, so then and it's not something you can
- 15:43remove and it's something that needs to be there and you want
- 15:46it there and you can't remove it yourself.
- 15:47So then it may be so there are posts going to say it's mutter
- 15:53depending on the situation especially.
- 15:55And then it depends if it could get wet, can't get wet.
- 15:58And if you could get wet, it's less of a problem because you
- 16:01just you just go in with it. But you can't have many say you
- 16:05can't have items stuck to it. If you have a sticker on it, you
- 16:09might have to remove the sticker.
- 16:11Different opinions. Signatures is not Mamasha, so
- 16:14that shouldn't be an issue, I believe.
- 16:16But anyway, different opinions on how to deal with it.
- 16:20It's a little bit beyond, yeah, but that's the basic idea
- 16:24because again, we see this over here when it's impossible to
- 16:27remove and you want it to be there.
- 16:29Also some make a distinction if it's for a week or longer or
- 16:32less. OK, let's see.
- 16:39OK, just one, something else of a Forrest pointed out that also
- 16:42with the bandage you have to remove, if you have a Band-Aid
- 16:47must be removed. And generals, generally
- 16:49speaking, it's a hadziza and sometimes you get a little bit
- 16:52of sticky residue, stuck adhesive to your skin.
- 16:56So you have to do your best to remove it.
- 16:57But at some point, obviously again, it's a similar idea where
- 17:00it's just not coming off and it's too difficult.
- 17:03A little bit here and a little bit there.
- 17:04At some point we say, OK, fine, it doesn't bother you anymore.
- 17:08You move on and she can go dip. But again, if you use soap, you
- 17:12use hot water and you let it soak a little bit, usually you
- 17:15can get it off. And on Shabbos it's interesting.
- 17:17It just points out that when you take off your Band-Aid on
- 17:20Shabbos, if it comes out, you have to be careful not to pluck
- 17:23out your hair. So if it's wet and you do it
- 17:25slowly, it's probably not up secret ratio, but if it is,
- 17:30might be a problem. OK, that's pretty much that.
- 17:33Let's do memcht. Neither should tava below
- 17:36kavana. OK, So what happens if a woman
- 17:39goes into the mikvah without kavana to make herself tahara?
- 17:43Does it work? No Kavana Kagona Shinafala
- 17:46Tokamayim, she fell inside. You can she can also go swimming
- 17:50for the sake of swimming, but which is also one of the
- 17:54studying in general, just in general, just many women they
- 17:59take. There are times when you could
- 18:01think a woman is is Tamaya, but she might actually be Tahara.
- 18:05I'll just because you don't need here, we're going to read.
- 18:08We don't need kavana Kagunsha nafla tokamaim.
- 18:10She fell in, she went to the beach, whatever oshi yard de la
- 18:14haka. She goes into the water just to
- 18:16cool off. It's hot.
- 18:18If it was a kosher mikvah, and again, we have our lacaquila
- 18:21standards, but sometimes there might be bedevit standards,
- 18:25harezo muteret la baila. So anyways, bottom line, a woman
- 18:29who goes into a kosher mikvah with no kavana, right?
- 18:34She didn't intend to become tahara, but then she got out and
- 18:36she realized, wait, I just went to the meccava.
- 18:38So we say she's 100% tahara and she's a mother to her husband.
- 18:43Again, Lamaisa. Generally, we would say she
- 18:44would need to go again because you have to make sure you didn't
- 18:48have a khatsitza on and all, all kinds of other reasons.
- 18:51That's it's certainly all right. OK, Usually wouldn't be good
- 18:55enough. The Yesh Mahmirian Umatsurihi
- 19:00there are, ma points out, but no yet samarama that says you must
- 19:04have kavana or you're not. It doesn't work.
- 19:08Almost like it's not the same world.
- 19:10That's the question. Is it the same?
- 19:12Is it similar to mitzvah srikas kavana or not?
- 19:16Is it the same idea? So anyways, the taz points out
- 19:20for whatever it's worth, if another woman pushes her in even
- 19:24he says even according to the Roma, it works because though
- 19:27her friend who pushes her in the water has if she has Kavana to
- 19:31make her go into the mikvah. So her friends Kavana is good
- 19:35enough. According according to this
- 19:36machmery Viet Shila and says that Khatila, you should go in
- 19:42with Kavana to be Tahara. OK, and the shock says right.
- 19:47And if she doesn't, she should go again.
- 19:49Yeah. Let's go on.
- 19:51Yeah. Shekatu.
- 19:52Sheesh. Lisha Senua Bilaltivilata.
- 19:55SO1 writes that one is supposed to beat Senua about where she
- 20:00goes, right? She's not supposed to announce
- 20:01it. And you know where it Walk
- 20:03around with the flag that she's going to the mikvah tonight.
- 20:05The hen Nagu and Nashim Mahastri without Tvilatan and the MENA
- 20:08goes. You try and keep it quiet so
- 20:10people don't know Mahuma. It'll make it obvious.
- 20:16Of shalayar gishu baham binayadam so people don't see
- 20:20don't notice Omisha enosa que nemar alleha and if one is not
- 20:25senua so it said about her Aurora, she'll have him Behema
- 20:30not so good. OK, One of curses one who sleeps
- 20:34with an animal Viesh le nashim lizire.
- 20:37And one woman should be careful 'cause she yells at me that's
- 20:40here. So I'll just point out that just
- 20:45we we touched upon it. Generally speaking, the post
- 20:49king say she should not push off her Lael tavila when it's her
- 20:53night to go even out. Even though some people might
- 20:57find out again, she should be sunu about it.
- 21:01She's not going to brag about it.
- 21:02But just because some people might catch on, that's not a
- 21:06reason to push it off right? It's nothing to be embarrassed
- 21:09about there's nothing wrong about going but but sometimes if
- 21:15both couple of the the both right the consent, the couple
- 21:18doesn't mind pushing it off one night.
- 21:20That's might be OK, right? It happens sometimes when kids
- 21:25go out or young couples go out to their parents.
- 21:27It's more common anyways. But anytime people travel VH or
- 21:31whatever the situation is VH OK, so this is more of a Midas
- 21:46Jacidas, more of a not the halach of of of Nikla.
- 21:52But that one should be careful that when she gets out of the
- 21:55mikvah, the first person really that she touches again, I want
- 21:59to be more Makhmur. The first one that you see
- 22:01should be a nice Jewish woman, like maybe at the mikvah, but
- 22:06your first person that you should see and especially touch
- 22:12should not be something that's Tammy or Anandju, the pag Oba
- 22:17devarian elu imhi. You're at Shamayim talks
- 22:20overtivo and if she bumps into a double Tammy or a goy first
- 22:25before a Jew, then she should like Khatila, really go back and
- 22:29dip again. Not that she must, but you're at
- 22:32Shamayim would be better. OK fine.
- 22:39And then the Ramadja says we concluded Hokhos Khatsitsa, but
- 22:43he says we didn't really finish Hokhos Khatsitsa until you
- 22:46finish I am the command SOF Simon Raish Aleph until you
- 22:50finish the end of Raish Aleph regardless others regarding
- 22:54other stuff like and the mikvah be hot also, you'll have to take
- 23:02a shower right after or a bath right after you come out from
- 23:04the mikvah. Those issues will be discussed
- 23:07later. Just a note about the ears that
- 23:09there cannot be a hetzitza is let's say a woman cannot let
- 23:13water. She has a medical condition.
- 23:15She can't have water enter the inside of her ears.
- 23:19So she needs to have it plugged up somehow.
- 23:22So how does she go to the mikvah?
- 23:24So it's probably best in general just to ask Rob what's
- 23:29recommended. And they're slightly different
- 23:30opinions. But just to point out, one
- 23:33eightsa is that you have another woman go into the mikvah with
- 23:39her, right? The other one could obviously be
- 23:41dressed. She makes her hand her fingers
- 23:44wet and then lightly or medium pressure lightly puts her two,
- 23:51her fingers one on into each ear.
- 23:54And then because they're wet, there's a connection of water.
- 23:58It's not considered a khatiza, and that would work, but
- 24:02Khatila, the woman herself shouldn't do it.
- 24:06But the evident might work. But the Khatila, she shouldn't
- 24:09do that because she'll have to stretch out her arms high too
- 24:14much that it creates folds, right?
- 24:17If it's not stretched, if her arms aren't stretched out a
- 24:21little bit, that's when it's that's how it's supposed to be.
- 24:24If it's not stretched out at all or too much, so then it can be
- 24:28folds. So like Aquila, we prefer not
- 24:31for her to do it herself, but that's one Eightsa.
- 24:34Another one is maybe cotton to put it deep inside the ear with
- 24:41preferably the oil, preferably fish oil.
- 24:45We'll get to that more and it'll host me close.
