161 to 162 · Chatzitzah and the Time of Tevilah

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

The Kitzur weighs what is a chatzitza for tevila, from dust on the feet to lice and matted hair. With her husband home, the Kitzur calls tevila on the seventh night a mitzvah in its proper time, and the Chachamim held back tevila before nightfall for two reasons of gezeira.

Key points

  • For a Shabbos eighth day with chafifa on Friday, the Kitzur allows no daytime tevila, not combining two leniencies.
  • For a mikvah too deep to stand in, the Kitzur has the woman ask how to proceed.
