How to cook on Shabbos morning, fresh chicken soup

 

Parshas Hashavua כי תשא                                                                                                                                      

ושמרתם את השבת כי קדש הוא לכם                


How to cook on Shabbos morning, fresh chicken soup 
 
  
 

1) One may not cook with תולדות חמה. e.g. Cooking an egg in
a pot that was heated up by the sun. (egg heated by the pot)
 
2) One may cook with חמה e.g. Placing an egg under the sun.
(egg heated directly from the sun) 
 
*According to Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon 
R. Shlomo Miller Shlita,

One may place food under the sun and have a 
magnifying glass directed at the food 
(not at the pot).
Since the food is being cooked directly from the sun
it's בישול בחמה which is permissible even לכתחילה on Shabbos.

All the magnifying glass does is increase more sun onto
the food.
 

PS: creating a fire on Shabbos with a magnifying glass is prohibited

The chicken & the egg - Riddle For Parshas Ki Sisa

 Parshas Hashavua כי תשא       

                                                                                                                              

   אך את שבתתי תשמרו  

 

The לקט יושר quotes this riddle from his Rebbe,
the
תרומת הדשן.

 

"A chicken jumped on an apple tree, and apples fell off the tree.
You may not eat the apples. A few minutes later, the chicken laid
an egg. Now you may eat the apples".






The גמרא* says, animals that mate only in the daytime give birth
in the daytime. Chickens mate only in the day, therefore lay their
eggs only in the day.
 

Apples that fell off the tree on a  Friday afternoon, בין השמשות 
may not be eaten (on Shabbos)
being it is unknown if it fell before or after night (Shabbos),


If, however, the chicken laid an egg after the apples fell.  We then
assume it must have been daytime, and the apples may be
eaten on Shabbos.
