A deep dive into the complex halachic principles surrounding opening packaging on Shabbat. We explore the classic sources—Shulchan Aruch, Mishnah Berurah, and major Poskim—regarding creating or widening holes in containers, with real-world examples such as milk cartons and barrels. Includes practical guidance on handling packaging when pre-opening isn't possible.
This episode explores the halachic intricacies of doors, hinges, and barriers on Shabbat, focusing on Siman 313. We examine when placing or locking a door is considered building, the status of reed mats, thorn panels, and single-plank closures, and how constant use or prior attachment affects permissibility. A detailed look at common and less common cases, all through the lens of Shulchan Aruch and Mishnah Berurah
In this episode, we explore halachic boundaries between constructive use and prohibited building on Shabbat. Focusing on rods and bolts used for locking doors or windows, we examine key debates between Rashi and Rabbeinu Tam, practical rulings from the Rema and Mishnah Berurah, and distinctions based on whether items are considered functional utensils (kli) before Shabbat. We also dive into how attachment, form, and placement—especially with floor bolts—can determine permissibility. Essential listening for anyone seeking clarity on the nuances of binyan (building) and stirah (dismantling) in home settings on Shabbat.Don't forget to: • Subscribe to get alerts for the next episode • Share with anyone studying Hilchot Shabbat • Leave a review if you're enjoying the series
