Description

In this Halacha shiur for Parshat Beshalach we will study the sugot of Hiddur Mitzva & Mitzva Bo Yoter MiBeshlucho. Are these requirements or simple good advice? Are they Deorayta or Derabanan? The Chayei Adam addresses the case where one must chose between these two categories of Mitzva enhancement, which trumps which if he cannot do both? We will study a number of Teshuvos on this topic and other related topics. We will discuss the case of a Mohel who would appoint a shaliach to circumcise his own son so that he (the father) can take serve as the sandek. What about the Mitzva of writing a Sefer Torah, should he commission a Sofer whose script is more beautiful than his own?
