We are continuing in Klal 23, discussing the melacha of menapeitz. We left off with the question of whether combing hair, fur or a shaitel is considered menapeitz. We already discussed these actions in the context of gozeiz, but the question is whether they are menapeitz as well (or instead of gozeiz). The Iglei Tal

We are beginning Klal 23, which discusses menapeitz. Menapeitz does not have many practical contemporary applications, but we will discuss the concept.

We have finished Klal 22 and are discussing a few additional points. Today, we will continue to discuss muktzah issues. Once an item receives a muktzah status, it cannot be moved. An item which still has potential use, such as a towel which is only partially wet, a towel which is only damp,

We have finished siman 12, which discussed using the mikvah on Shabbos. At the end of the siman, the Chayei Adam refers the learner to the halachos of rechitzah. There, the Chayei Adam explains that Chazal instituted an issur of bathing on Shabbos. This issur was not borne out of concern for sechita, but

We are beginning siman 22. The Chayei Adam writes that it is muttar to go to the mikvah on Shabbos. There are few concerns to discuss. The first is the concept of tikkun, which is an issur derabanan against fixing an item. The process of going to the mikvah is a taharah process, similar to
