Brief Notes (Zutot)
One who learns Torah or examines scholarly literature often stumbles, as it were, on insights that may provide a solution to a problem or lead others to provide such a solution. Often, these insights take the form of an obvious correction of a printer’s error; or the provision of a source overlooked by a particular scholar; or a suggested interpretation of an enigmatic text; or a query that begs for an answer. These insights, or nuggets of wisdom, being minuscule by nature, cannot and should not be turned into essays – and therefore, for the most part, rightfully do not appear in print. A website affords one the opportunity to record such insights, however insignificant. Each will be provided with an appropriate title. The judicious reader can examine the title and decide whether or not the brief note is worth reading.
