THE DAFYOMI DISCUSSION LIST brought to you by Kollel Iyun Hadaf of Yerushalayim Rosh Kollel: Rabbi Mordecai Kornfeld [EMAIL PROTECTED] [REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE TO DISCUSS THE DAF WITH THE KOLLEL] ________________________________________________________________ Sukah 004: Ma'aKeh Zvi Novick asked: Hi. In Succah 4B the Gemerah deals with four poles on each corner of a roof, with appropriate s'chach, and whether we use the concept of gud asik to provide the four walls to make the succah kosher. In Davarin 22-8 we have the obligation of every roof needs a fence to prevent accidental harm. How does the Gemarah format halacha based on a case where no Makah (roof fence)is present? Zvi Zvi Novick, New York USA ---------------------------------------------- The Kollel replies: There is not always an obligation of Makeh in such a case. For example, there is a discussion among the Poskim if the roof is that of a shul whether or not a Makeh need be placed. Additionally, if the house would be owned by a Nochri (and the Jew would merely have permission to build a Sukah on his property) it would not be obligated in Makeh. There are other possible cases as well (see Minchas Chinuch Mitzvah 546). All the best, Yaakov Montrose _______________________________________________ Daf-discuss mailing list Daf-discuss@shemayisrael.co.il http://www.shemayisrael.com/mailman/listinfo/daf-discuss_shemayisrael.co.il
