Additional Laws"},"content":{"rendered":"

\u1e24alla<\/em> that became mixed back into the dough: If one separated \u1e25alla<\/em> and the piece then became mixed back into the dough, the dough remains permitted only if there is enough ordinary dough to nullify the \u1e25alla<\/em>. The required ratio is one hundred to one: if the dough contains one hundred times the volume of the \u1e25alla<\/em>, the \u1e25alla<\/em> is considered insignificant within the mixture and is nullified. If the dough does not contain that amount, the mixture is prohibited.<\/p>\n

However, if people have not yet begun eating from the baked goods, the original designation can still be undone. The person who separated the \u1e25alla<\/em> goes to a Torah scholar, who sits together with two others as a beit din<\/em>, and asks that the designation be annulled. Since separating \u1e25alla<\/em> functions like a vow, it can be undone through a similar process; once that is done, the piece is no longer \u1e25alla<\/em> retroactively (Rema YD 323:1).<\/p>\n

To undo the designation, the one who separated the \u1e25alla<\/em> states before the beit din<\/em> that he regrets having separated it and that had he known it would become mixed back into the dough, he would not have done so. The beit din<\/em> then says to him three times, \u201cIt is permitted to you,\u201d or \u201cThe \u1e25alla<\/em> is nullified.\u201d At that point, the dough or baked goods are permitted. However, since the original designation has been undone, he must now separate \u1e25alla<\/em> again, without a berakha (Halakhot Ketanot<\/em> 1:48; Birkei Yosef<\/em> 323:2; Yabi\u2019a Omer<\/em> YD 1:21; according to \u1e24atam Sofer<\/em> YD 320, one should recite a berakha. The same applies to terumot<\/em> and ma\u2019asrot<\/em>; see above, 9:4, note 7).<\/p>\n

\u1e24alla<\/em><\/strong> outside the Land<\/strong>: As we learned above, sections 3\u20134, the Sages extended the obligation of \u1e25alla<\/em> to dough prepared outside the Land as well. Since most of the nation is not presently living in the Land, \u1e25alla<\/em> in Eretz Yisrael is also rabbinic. Even so, it remains more stringent than \u1e25alla<\/em> outside the Land, for \u1e25alla<\/em> in Eretz Yisrael is rooted in a Torah obligation, while \u1e25alla<\/em> outside the Land was rabbinic from the outset.<\/p>\n

The main practical leniency concerns separating from one dough for another. In Eretz Yisrael, when each dough independently contains enough flour to trigger the obligation, one may separate from one for the other only when both doughs are in the same place; this is the requirement of mukaf<\/em>, as explained above, section 7. Outside the Land, one may separate even when the other dough is elsewhere. The leniency goes even further: one may bake the dough, begin eating from it, and only near the end separate \u1e25alla<\/em> from what remains for what has already been eaten (SA YD 323:1).<\/p>\n

Shabbat<\/strong>: Just as one may not separate terumot<\/em> and ma\u2019asrot<\/em> on Shabbat, one may not separate \u1e25alla<\/em> on Shabbat (SA O\u1e24 339:4; MB 339:26; above, 10:4). If one is concerned that he will not manage to separate \u1e25alla<\/em> before Shabbat, he may make a stipulation beforehand: \u201cWhatever I separate on Shabbat as \u1e25alla<\/em> shall be \u1e25alla<\/em>.\u201d He may then recite the berakha on Shabbat and separate \u1e25alla<\/em>, as explained above, 10:4, note 1. Outside the Land, as noted, one may eat from the baked goods on Shabbat, leave over a small amount for Motza\u2019ei Shabbat, and then separate \u1e25alla<\/em> from what remains for what was eaten (Rema O\u1e24 506:3; MB 506:21).<\/p>\n

\u1e24alla<\/em><\/strong> of a non-Jew<\/strong>: One is not required to separate \u1e25alla<\/em> from dough owned by a non-Jew, even if a Jew kneaded it for him. Therefore, \u1e25alla<\/em> is not separated in a bakery owned by non-Jews, even if all the workers are Jewish. This differs from teruma<\/em>: when a non-Jew separates teruma<\/em>, it becomes sanctified, but when he separates \u1e25alla<\/em>, the portion does not become \u1e25alla<\/em> at all (SA and Rema YD 330:1; SA YD 331:44; above, 8:11). Therefore, if a non-Jew did separate a portion as \u1e25alla<\/em>, he should be told that it has no \u1e25alla<\/em> status and need not be reserved for kohanim (Shakh YD 330:3). If dough is jointly owned by a Jew and a non-Jew, and the Jewish partner\u2019s share contains enough flour to trigger the obligation of \u1e25alla<\/em>, \u1e25alla<\/em> must be separated from the Jewish partner\u2019s share (SA YD 330:3).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
