Description

Can a Jew who does not keep kosher, be a shochet? Is one permitted to circumcise a baby, whose previous siblings died from circumcision? Can a non-circumcised hemophiliac eat teruma, eat karban Pesach, work in the beis hamikdash, get the first aliyah, or duchan? Should a single girl be concerned if she marries a challal? Who can a challal or challala not marry? Can a rabbi officiate at a wedding between a unknown mamzer and a kosher Jew, if the rabbi is aware that one is a mamzer? When does aveilus start? Is a Jew who desecrates the shabbos publicly, kosher to shecht? Should a aveil who is a lousy chazan be given the amud? Is a newly derived biblical mitzva, chal retroactively? Chumash-Teruma: Did the kedusha of Shlomo last forever?
