What If…on Yamim Tovim - Volume 2

Description

The Torah Conversation Continues... On Yom Tov! The What If..? series has become a beloved part of our Shabbos table conversation. With its interesting scenarios and clear halachic explanations, it's a fantastic conversation starter for young and old alike. When first published, What If on the Yamim Tovim became an instant favorite for holiday tables. Now What If on the Yamim Tovim 2 brings us even more unusual scenarios and thought-provoking explanations. A diamond is found in the chicken used for kapparos. Who gets the diamond? The one who bought the chicken? Or the one who was using it for kapparos? Sara's sister-in-law is very sick, and cannot take care of her young children. Should Sara give up davening in shul on Yom Kippur to watch them? Or are her prayers more important? An army officer may requisition for himself either a set of arba minim or a succah, but not both. Which should he choose? The What If...? series is based on the popular Hebrew-language series Chashukei Chemed, written by noted rav and posek Rav Yitzchok Zilberstein shlita, and translated and arranged by Rabbi Moshe Sherrow. The series has brought interesting, animated conversations to tens of thousands of homes. Bring it to your table and watch the excitement -- and the Torah learning! -- begin.

HOW TO PUT ON TEFILLIN

HTP

Someone looking to buy a pair of tefillin (boxes, scrolls, or straps), whether for himself or for his son, is often unaware of the details that need attention. What is more, the broad range of tefillin offered by retailers, as well as the sharp difference in price from one pair to another, can be a source of great confusion, and with good reason. Superficial examination of a pair of tefillin does not readily reveal the vast amount of work and effort that goes into the various stages of production, nor the relative superiority or inferiority of the finished product.
The purpose of this work is to make the reader aware of the various issues involved. In addition to setting forth the laws of making and laying tefillin, we aim to familiarize the reader, and especially the bar mitzvah boy, with the procedures by which tefillin are made, problems that often occur en route, and the solutions thereof.

In addition, knowing the technical details involved in the manufacture of tefillin brings the study of hilchos tefillin to life, allowing the reader to picture and fully understand that which he studies. By creating a dynamic and enjoyable learning experience, this book will instill within the reader a love for the mitzvah.
