Rabbi Lev Leib Lerner addresses a common question many students in yeshiva and beyond have: Is it permissible to write notes directly in the margins of a holy book? This is a crucial topic for anyone involved in limmud Torah. Rabbi Lerner explains that adding personal annotations, summaries, or mnemonic devices to help you remember a complex concept is generally not considered a sign of disrespect. When you are deeply engaged in learning Torah, your personal notes can be vital tools for retention and understanding. However, the discussion takes a serious turn when considering specific types of writing. What about inscribing the names of sick people (holim) directly into a siddur or other holy text as a form of tefillah? Rabbi Lerner offers compelling reasons why this practice should be avoided, suggesting that such an act could inadvertently imply a permanent state of illness for the individual—a thought no one wishes to entertain. He advises a far safer and more accepted method for remembering those in need of a refuah shleimah, sharing how many people, including his own rabbi, handle large lists of names during prayer. This video is essential viewing for anyone dedicated to Jewish education and seeking clarity on hilchos kodesh (laws concerning sacred objects). Discover the permissible boundaries for personalizing your study materials and learn the halachic reasons behind these guidelines.
