is being a lefty a mum in the beis hamikdash?
no it’s a prat of that it’s not K’Aharon
mbachur: i found this via google. can anyone verify?
“This derivation indeed seems to be the basis for a whole set of
requirements that one use the right hand. Much of the work in the Beis Hamikdash must be performed with the right hand.
In fact, left- handedness is one of the 90 types of “mum” which cause a Kohen to be unfit for work in the Beis Hamikdash. Rashi in Behorot 45b explains that a lefty Kohen is rejected because much of the work must be done with the right hand and he can’t do it this way.”
“The Gemarah and Rambam say a left handed person may not do avodah. Not all agree that left handedness per se is a P’gam. Some hold (Ramban) the left handed acts are not “k’darko” that is not normative, and therefor should not be performed in the mikdash.”
“Avodah – sacrificial acts in the Temple – must be performed with the right hand by righties. There is an opinion that lefties are considered as having a mum, while Rashi seems to say that performance of these acts with the left hand is not the proper “way” that is it does not honor the Temple.”
“if your a lefty you belong posting on the LEFTY thred!”
lefties know how to spell
youre right,
i saw this thread before I even knew of the other
sorry
IF I was a Kohen, I would not be disqualified for not being “shoveh b’zera shel Aahron”.
But I’m not a Kohein, still very proud to use my right hand, predominantly.
Proud to be a Righty!
ummm…are you guys actually jealous that you’re not lefty’s?
i think we’re caught up in western thinking here. to me there’s no such thing as “righty or lefty”, anyone can learn to write with either hand so whats the difference. i write and draw with both hands the with about the same efficiency. i moved from mostly righty to mostly lefty in the teens. i don’t believe it is anything important
there IS a genetic and neurological difference. and it is important enough that many Halachos relate to the subject.
righty here.
Right Makes Might!
The origin of refering to political/religious positions as “left” or “right” comes from the French Parliament where the radicals sat to the left of the dais and the conservative representatives sat to the right. The avodah in the Beis Hamqidash has nothing to do with it.
Go righties go!!:):):)(again!!!)
Uh, Stuffed? I’m afraid you forgot to post with your other screen name;)
Very True it was my sister that did it!!! lets refraise thst “GO LEFTIES GO”!!
Ambidextrous 😉
I always thought lefties were so cool – and now I am zoche to have some of my own!
Are we discussing hashkafically?
I am right-ly inclined. in all areas. especially living.
My husband and I are a mixed marriage.
I am a righty and he is a lefty.
