[REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE TO DISCUSS THE DAF WITH THE KOLLEL]
________________________________________________________________
Megilah 032: R. Shefatyah- ha'Golel Notel Shel Kulam
Zev Arye asks:
Is there any reason as to why?
Zev Arye, N.Y.
----------------------------------------------
The Kollel replies:
This question is discussed by the Bach (O.C. 147). He says that according
to the opinions that “Golel” refers to bringing out the Sefer Torah and
showing it to everyone before Kriyas Ha’Torah (as the Sefardim do), the
reason he gets reward equivalent to everyone is because he is the one who
is enabling them to proceed to read by bringing out the Sefer Torah.
According to the Tur and others who imply that this refers to Hagbah, he
explains that since there are many laws involved in Hagbah (not touching
the parchment, the seam should be exactly so, and more) one receives more
reward. Just as the punishment of a person who does not keep to the laws of
Hagbah/Gelilah is mentioned by our Gemara, so too our Gemara mentions that
if conversely he does keep the laws he gets a tremendous amount of reward.
All the best,
Yaakov Montrose
