Can you explain how one can fulfill the mitzvah of listening to the blowing of the shofar in person, when one is physically handicapped, and is unable to stand in the synagogue during the blowing of the shofar.
I have been told that it is a sin to sit during the blowing of the shofar, and it is better to stay at home than to come to the synagogue & sit during the blowing of the shofar (The Arc of course is open), when one cannot stand because of a physical disability.
@mcfrdmn I'm sure a sensible rabbi would understand that on account of one being physically handicapped, they would be exempt from standing during the holy shofar blowing. Just like on Yom Kippur, someone with illnesses who's bodies would suffer from the fast is exempt from fasting. I'm also quite sure G-d wouldn't mind too!
Let's look at this gem of wisdom from the mouth of god. Notice how the woman is not free to choose her husband. When you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for 6 years. But in the 7th year, he shall go free, paying nothing. If he comes alone, he is to go free alone; but if he has a wife when he comes, she is to go with him. If his master gives him a wife and she bears him kids, the woman and her kids shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free. [Ex. 21:2-6]
I spoke to Rabbi Rivkin today and he told me that his Shul does have a Kudu Shofar .. I did offer my services to him as well as Shofars that i sell out of my Judaica.. Shalom Uvracha, Zach'Riah Tel: 786-314-2571
How do we know that he has the funds for a long well made shofar? It's kinda like how not all churches can afford a grand pipe organ. I wish all churches could, but money could be an issue. maybe money is an issue with shofars as well? They know they need one but can't afford the long showy ones so this little one has to do?
you are right, i apologize is just that i never seen such of shofar like that, i apologize................the Almighty shall provide a new shofar for this ministry within 6 months......
