Q&A: Two Questions
Two Questions
Question
1. I saw in the responsa section on the site that you were asked about an article that was published and then taken down, “Does Marriage Give a Man Ownership over a Woman.” Is the article going to be published soon? It sounds interesting……..
2. Regarding what we corresponded about concerning the law of Purim in Lod: on the one hand you wrote to me that the accepted ruling was meant not to confuse a large public of ordinary laypeople, but on the other hand you wrote to me that in your opinion this is a baseless ruling. So that left me confused. It seemed that you supported the accepted halakhic ruling and its rationale, yet on the other hand you wrote that it is baseless, so I didn’t understand.
Answer
Indeed. It will be published in the upcoming issue of Akdamot. Therefore they asked me to take it down until publication.
Regarding Lod, I do not agree with that ruling, and I do not see what confusion there would be here. I celebrate only on the fifteenth.
