Have a good week Rabbi,
There is a harsh Rambam in the Laws of Shofar, 2:7:

Babies who have not reached Hanukkah are not prevented from being baptized on a Sabbath that is not a holy day of Rosh Hashana so that they can learn. And it is permissible for an adult to engage with them in order to teach them. On a holy day. Whether a child has reached Hanukkah or a child who has not reached Hanukkah. That baptism is not forbidden except because of Shabbat.

  1. In essence, it means that without the reason "so that they would learn," infants who did not attend Hanoch should have been prevented from being baptized on a Sabbath that is not a Yom Tov – the question is whether a special reason is needed to avoid preventing an infant who did not attend education from committing such a rabbinical offense (such as so that they would learn).
  2. In the final sense, it means that an adult is permitted to engage with a child (whether he has reached education or not) in order to teach him, because hitting is not forbidden except because of a return, but even in the Risha, the prohibition is because of a return, and this was not a sufficient reason to make it easier for a baby who has reached education.
  3. Regarding the verse that says, "That the tak'a is not forbidden except on Shabbat," shouldn't children also be educated in things that are forbidden on Shabbat?

Best regards,

At first, it is about a Sabbath that is not a Sabbath. There, it is about learning to make a tza'ot. They did not allow the adult to deal with this (because it is a tza'ot with the hands, which is forbidden by the Torah, and there is no educational law here because we are talking about a minor who has not reached education), but they did allow themselves, meaning that there is no obligation to prevent them, because according to the law, a minor who eats carrion is not required by the Jewish Law to be separated. The question is why in the Sifa that deals with the Yot of Reh himself, they did permit it. It seems that he understands that there is no prohibition here. Therefore, if he reached the age of enlightenment, then even a mitzvah is required, and if he did not reach the age of enlightenment, there is still no prohibition. Why is there no prohibition here? Apparently because the takiya itself is a shvut, and the Yot of Reh did not decree this shvut, since in any case, takiya is performed on the same day. In other words, the takiya on the Yot is not postponed, but rather permitted. And of course, there is no specific prohibition in this Yot of Reh either. Question 3 is not a question unrelated to this. If you are talking about those who have reached education, then you are talking about the law of education and not the law of hand-slapping (because this also exists in very young children). But from the law of education, there is also an obligation to educate them and teach them to poke, and this rejects education to maintain reverence. But in my opinion, there is no need for this because the Jewish Law itself does not contain reverence at all. The last way I suggested is probably the way of the Rabbi there, who writes that they also permitted it on the Sabbath adjacent to the Yom Tiv, and there is certainly a return there: But the Baraita says that in a child who has reached the age of matzot education, his father engages with him so that he may learn, even on the Sabbath that is adjacent to the Sabbath, as they said (Sukkah 44): A child who knows how to twirl his father takes a lulav for him, but a child who has not reached the age of matzot education, they themselves twirl it on a Yom Tov, but not on Shabbat, and when his father does not engage with him.
