Description

How is a Muktza stone transformed into a Kli and the Shem Muktza is removed? Is it sufficient to place a stone on top of a barrel? What about wood designated for firewood or stones for building? How does one designate these as a seat to sit on? Or must a more profound action be implemented one that would change the structure of the Muktza? In this shiur we will analyze the controversy between the Ba'al HaMaor and the Ramban on this subject. We will raise the fundamental issue of a 'partial' muktza.
