Description

Does one recite a blessing when slaughtering a treifah and does this shecitah accomplish anything? Does slaughtering one siman in a animal accomplish anything? Is the birth of the head always considered the end of giving birth? Which animal does not require checking for treifos, after being slaughtered? What is learned from the pasuk of "lo sochlu al ha'dam?" Can one eat the meat immediately after shechita while the animal is still moving? Can sefardim serve kosher kishka(intestines) to gentiles? How many rinses are needed for salting? What is the nature of the issur of abortions? Chumash-Toldos: Why did Yitzchak not leave Eretz Yisrael? Why is the word "zechira" mentioned by Avraham and Yaakov, but not by Yitzchak?
