Okay, we're continuing in we're middle of we're learning. We're up to um this is our regular program. The only thing is we haven't done it since January. But this is what we this is what we do every week. We just haven't done it in about five and a half months because we had Kaneka and then Purim and then Pesak and Shvu but is sitsus you know is okay. So we're up to in we saw as follows that basically let's say you have these undershirt sitsus which are slit but they're they're connected the garment is connected on top but on the bottom it's split. So you have four corners but you're going to need the majority of the garment to be open. If the majority is closed it's not considered a valid four corners. So the question is what if you closed the garment to exempt it from it said if you made these hooks to attach it then [clears throat] there's certain conditions needed for the hooks to to attach it. We'll see again was mostly open but he made hooks to attach the edges of the garment. The hooks will not exempt the garment. And they also should be set below the belt so that the majority which is closed is apparent. If it's not clearly apparent but if you're wearing it under your shirt even when you go into the public then then it would be okay. There's no issue because you're never wearing it under your shirt. Even though we often say that anything that's even so we have to think about that. If you're going to use these hooks to exempt your garment from being considered four cornered, they need to be very bent. They have to be in a way that you can't undo them. It has to be you have to take out a wrench to get them off. If you could just like uncclick them or something that's not an attachment staple. >> What? >> Like a staple. But then you need a device to open the staple. >> Yeah. By the way, I don't know. I just He doesn't say you need a device. You need an act. So, an unstapling is an act. But just like an I wouldn't, you know, if if it comes apart easily, perhaps that's not a valid uh act. Therefore, don't make very bent hooks because then it will be like it's sealed up. But if you did have hooks, they're just bent a little bit. And then they became very bent. You're gonna have to undo the hooks and take off the titus and put them back on. Why? Because if otherwise it's if the let's say initially you put on the hooks and they're loose loose and then they became connected. So now you've abolished the beet status of it being four cornered. Now when you undo the hooks you got to take off the titus because that means you've rendered the garment kosher after the fact that the titus were already on. But you have to have a four corner garment and then put strings on. Now what about the goddamn that are half open? It's not open. It's half open. You can't go out on Shabas into a with them. Why can't you go out into aim? Because it's a sufficing. Why? But you're allowed to put yourself in that situation. Maybe it's not and you need to remove the strings. He says over here, Allah says questions very much this that you're now to go out into the in a garment that's half open half closed. We'll do one more. Let's say you had twothirds open are you have two/3 of the garment open [cough and clears throat] from the two/3s that are opened a little bit more than a third was cloth And less than a third was leather. You hear the case? One/ird of the garments is closed. But it's okay cuz two/3s are open. But the majority of the two/3s that are open are cloth. A minority of the two/3s that are open are leather. Leather is from is this garment is the majority. Why? The majority of the garment is open and the majority of what's open is cloth. Even though the open which is cloth is the minority of the whole thing. But we look at each realm separately. Is it mostly open? Yeah. Of what's open? Is it mostly cloth? Yeah. Yeah. But of the whole thing, it's only a third and a bit open cloth. No, we don't look at it that way. We look at it. Is it mostly open? Yeah. Is what's open mostly cloth? Yeah. Okay. It was He said it was interesting. So we'll do one more. Shalanu shaky wreck. Not talking about your basement. Talking about the ackle. Yeah. The clo the our clothing that are called a wreck. Even though it's mostly open. So now do reckless have to have titus? You ever see a rashiva come in wearing titus on on the reck? No. Saying putting strings on the four corners of the wreck. No. Why? Because the four corners are not are not aligned. He has four corn two corners here and two corners slit in the back front and center. So the two in the front are not opposite the two in the back. So therefore it's not however this is a little bit weak and there's lot you could ask on this god-fearing person should circle off one of corners of his wreck. a recckle. You know the kapata that the rashivas wear a frock. He should de corner. He shouldn't be defrocked, but he should dec cornorner. Even though there's no word of d corner, he should round off one of the corners. >> The same problem with a jacket. Any suit that has the two the vents in the back. >> Well, first of all, let's say >> it's rounded. Oh, you should know that it's much more stylish to wear round over here. Yeah. And I have the >> let's say four vents have four have four corners here, >> right? >> What if the the >> So they have to wear round. >> What if the ones in front were squared, >> right? >> And they were opposite each other. >> Yeah, that would be a problem. In other words, if the if the jacket in the front came to an angle, >> right, >> and then there were corners in the back that were directly aligned opposite, you'd have to wear sus, >> which there are. >> It's it's it's pretty close here. Yeah. You want to Uhhuh. So then do you have to round off the vents according to this? Um, he sayim should round off the vents. Uh-oh. Here it could be like this. Everyone agrees you need two in the front, two in the back. It's just if they're not aligned, it's ara to round off. But if they're all four in the back, >> right? >> We didn't see that. That might be that might be over. >> How can you mean two slits in the back? >> Yeah. the the vents today's vents. You have the one in the center is is is 80s. Come on. >> Right. >> Okay. Have a good day, everyone.
