this is rabbitheim jackder on behalf of
the orthodox union's
oldav project continuing in our series
entitled bringing helcos erevin and
masekis aravind to life
in this video we're going to supplement
our discussion from a previous video
on heir of khaseros this video we're
going to be speaking about
shiraz russias this is spoken about in
many places
in massachusetts aravin this is what's
this is what supplements the heir of
hatseros because the heir of hatseros
is insufficient for jews who are
not believing jews or for non-jews in
other words the heir of god hatseris
works only for jews who believe
in the tarshival path believe in the
effectiveness
and the effect of the heir of katseros
those who don't believe
are not included in the heir of hatseros
and if you have people in the community
who are not observant or not jewish it's
insufficient to conduct the heir of
khazeros
you also must conduct a shus
you have to rent all the areas owned by
a non-jew
so if let's say an area that's a great
rishi
that you make a heir of hatseros and you
have
10 people living there five people
religious five people
are not religious five of the homes are
owned by by religious jews five longs
are owned by non-religious jews you have
to rent the homes from each of the
non-religious jews
now if you have a community era you can
have thousands and thousands of homes
that are that are owned by non-jews
how are you going to conduct skiers for
shuts or non-observing jews how are you
going to conduct this
on with with so many non-religious jews
and
non-jews so the arch the
hoskins like the rivas the rivash came
out with a ruling says that it's it's
acceptable for us to conduct
the skirs
with the ruler of the city in which
you can present him with
something that's worth at least a pruta
and
you can give give him at least a bruta
and rent the entire area for religious
purpose
purposes from that sarah year it's as if
you rented it from
all of all the all the individual homes
from all the individual
non-jews or non-observant jews and
this is what we do today there's a lot
of discussion about the application for
today
and we have that in our book uh walking
the line on hill close aravind we have a
extensive discussion of scarce for sure
especially to the current
environment but nonetheless the
in in in practice what at least in the
in the united states and israel actually
all over will conduct
with one of the uh officials in the town
this debate whether to use the mayor
to use the the police whether you use
the fire chief
i personally prefer to use the county
executive and that's endorsed by
rehearsal schefter and remordecai
willing
they both felt that's acceptable to rent
the entire county from the county
executive that's what i prefer to do
because when you make a community error
of many times
the error encompasses not just one
municipality but many municipalities and
sometimes
you don't even realize that there are
other municipalities included in the are
and therefore scarce is just with just
one mayor is going to be insufficient
to make sure that you are covered by
your skewers or sustained covers
all the jurisdiction i like to use i
like to rent the entire
county and to just demonstrate exactly
how
one would go about doing this i have my
son ben yemen
who is going to be acting as a county
executive
of such and such county of john doe
county and i'm going to approach him
and i'm going to explain a little bit
and thank him thank you mr county
executive
of of of of john doe county thank you
for helping the jewish community
and we what i'm going to do is i'm going
to present you with a dollar
and with the dollar i'm going to be here
by renting
uh all for religious purposes all of
john doe county for a period of 20 years
is that acceptable to you mr county
executive
yes well thank you very much well we're
as i'm acting on behalf of the entire
jewish community
of such and of john doe county
and now i'm going to say as follows and
this will conduct
the ceremony right now with this dollar
that i am giving you i hereby on behalf
of all the jewish community
i hereby i'm renting for you all of john
doe county for a period
of 20 years and if in case we free the
jewish community forgets to do the
renewal in 20 years from now
we have an automatic renewal for 99
years thanks so much
thank you thank you mr county executive
now
there is considerable debate for the
length of time for the scarecrow just
for the rental rehearsal shafter
prefers that we do it actually netel is
instructing me to use
20 years the guidance of how exactly to
conduct this skirmish
is from rehearsal the uh
there's considerable disagreement about
the amount of years many permit
much more than than 20 years and the
backup of the automatic renewal is
something that
rav mordecai willig told me that he
found acceptable and therefore i like to
do it
i like to look at
but then keep create a backup in case we
forget to renew
20 years down the line so we've
illustrated a little bit about sahara
swishas
and this is a project of the orthodox
union
aldaf rabbit heinjachter continuing a
series on
bringing jojo's irvin and miseka's irvin
to life
