 Ask the Kollel |
(a) The Mishnah permits taking ...
1. ... both one's son who is holding a stone and ...
2. ... a basket with a stone inside it on Shabbos.
(b) We might have thought that it is forbidden - because the stone is Muktah.
(c) The latter case is forbidden if there is no fruit in the basket - because the basket is a Basis le'Davar ha'Asur (a base for a Muktzah article).
(d) The Heter will not apply if the fruit in the basket comprises nuts or almonds - because one is then obligated to tip them out of the basket ...
(e) ... and the reason that it is permitted if it comprises strawberries and grapes is based on the fact that will get spoilt if one tips them out.
(a) The Tana - permits taking Tamei Terumah - together with Terumah that is Tahor (See Tos. Yom-Tov).
(b) Rebbi Yehudah also permits rectifying Meduma - (Chulin into which a Terumah has fallen) on Shabbos.
(a) If a Sa'ah of Terumah falls into a hundred Sa'ah of Chulin on Shabbos - Rebbi Yehudah permits one to remove it ...
(b) in order to permit Zarim (non-Kohanim) to eat it.
(c) We would have otherwise have thought that it is forbidden - because it is 'Mesaken' (rectifying the food, making it fit to eat).
(d) Rebbi nevertheless permits it - because he considers the Sa'ah that one is about to remove to be Sa'ah Terumah that fell in, and b. he considers it to be lying separate.
(e) The Halachah in this regard is - like the Tana Kama, who forbids it.
(a) If a barrel of wine from which one wishes to extract wine, has a stone perched on its lid, one is permitted to tip the barrel for the stone to fall off.
(b) But if the barrel is lying among other barrels, so that tipping the stone off might cause other barrels to break - one may even lift up the barrel (but not the stone) and move it out of harm's way before tipping the stone off.
(c) The Tana now discusses money that is lying on a blanket/cushion on a bed or a couch (See Tos. Yom-Tov). He ...
1. ... permits only tipping the cushion - if one needs the cushion.
2. ... permits even removing the cushion - if he needs the location where the cushion is lying.
3. ... forbid even tipping the cushion - there where he deliberately placed it on the blanket/cushion (in which case it becomes a Basis for for the Muktzah.
(a) The Mishnah permits wiping a 'Lashleshes' - (something dirty, such as spit, exrement or dirt) from the blanket/cushion with a rag.
(b) This comes to preclude - pouring water on it, which is forbidden ...
(c) ... because (assuming it is made of cloth) - pouring water on it is akin to Kibus [washing clothes, which is forbidden on Shabbos]).
(d) If the blanket/cushion is made of leather - one may pour water on it, because the principle 'Pouring water on it is considered Kibus does not apply to leather ...
(e) ... whereas actually washing it is forbidden.
(a) Beis Shamai permit the removal of peels and bones from the table. Beis Hillel - forbid it.
(b) We amend the Machlokes - by switching the opinions ...
(c) ... because Beis Hillel hold like Rebbi Shimon (who in general, does not hold of Mukztah; whereas Beis Shamai hold like Rebbi Yehudah, who does.
(d) Beis Hillel concede that it is forbidden - if the bones and peels are not fit for animal consumption ...
(e) ... because then Rebbi Shimon himself concedes that they are Muktzah.
(a) The Mishnah permits removing from the table on Shabbos ...
1. ... crumbs that are smaller than a k'Zayis, as well as ...
2. ... beans or lentils-pods, and certainly ...
(b) ... if the crumbs are larger than a k'Zayis ...
(c) ... because they are fit for animal fodder.
(a) The Tana permits using a sponge on Shabbos - provided it has a (leather) handle.
(b) Otherwise it is forbidden - because one is bound to squeeze it whilst holding it.
(c) One may take a sponge that has no handle on Shabbos - as long as it is dry.
(d) Neither of them are subject to Tum'ah - because it is only vessels that are made of wood, cloth, sack and metal that are considered vessels, categories into which none of these a sponge falls.
