When are you required to fast for 5 days ?
The Rema (Y.D. 123 : 26) quotes a
Teshuvas Harosh, "If someone
drank Yayin Nesech Beshogeg, he
should fast 5 days, because It says
5* times Gefen in Chumash."
*There are actually 7 times
“Gefen”in the Torah. Some answer
We exclude 2 which are in Mishna
Torah (Devarim)
The Orach Mishor argues and claims
it says “in CHUMASH” ,
Mishna Torah is part of Chumash.
The Bach says it’s referring to the
five times it says
Gefen at the story of the Sar
Hamashkim. This is also incorrect
It only says twice Gefen at the Sar
Hamashkim.
The O.M. corrects the Girsa in the
Bach, to say except for
the 2 at the Sar Hamashkim.
The Chasam Sofer has a long
explanation why we exclude
The two times it says Gefen at the
Sar Hamashkim.
(The two Gefens are referring to
Yerushalayim shel Maloh
&Matoh)
