The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
Recording in progress. >> Okay, good morning everyone. We're continuing in Olive safe base. Simeon safe Simeon Olive safe base. Which you're not marked but on is not a by the way just as Let's review the intro. The Mr. Burrell in the in the introduction to the Simeon told us that something that covers the majority of your body and your market is a matter of by loss of golf. If it's the majority of your body and you're not marked but or if you're not or if you're marked but it's a minority the we're going to if it's me out the inner marked but then it's not a so that's what we're seeing over here. Call the marked but all of it is Okay. Let's say for Reuben Reuben is particular. And Simeon is not particular. For Reuben it's a pizza. For Simeon it's not a pizza. Saba Let's say you have a guy who is a dier. But how you got to wait and his hands were dyed. There was pigment on his hand. So he's not normally marked but on that. He deals with this stuff all day. It's not a pizza. Even though he has my muscles of dye on his hands. But if he sold life insurance and how you got to his hands were colored the mama to buy out of any other the pigment on his hand Hariza choidates. It is a chatziza. Shahadiyoi hayovish choidates. Dry ink is a chatziza. V'halach einai choidates. Wet ink is not a chatziza. Let's say women that it's their derech to dye their hands for beauty so it's not a chatziza. Women who it's their derech to dye their hands for beauty, it's not a chatziza.
