In his discussion of whether women have to daven musaf, Halichos Beisa quotes Shu"t Beis Yitzchak as arguing that of course they do, because if women are exempt, then kohanim and those under 20 are also exempt, which just can't be -- reductio ad absurdum. I guess one person's reduction ad absurdum is another person's normal, but it's strange.Chaim B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02231811394447584320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-83518585457380273152011-03-05T20:26:40.813-05:002011-03-05T20:26:40.813-05:00>>>RHS doesn't allow under 20 to dave...>>>RHS doesn't allow under 20 to daven musaf<br /><br />You mean as shat"z, right? A katan can donate a machtzis hashekel (I think we once discussed this --- http://divreichaim.blogspot.com/2008/02/machatzis-hashekel-and-kinyanim-by.html), so there should be no problem of his choosing voluntarily to daven musaf. Musaf would actually be more problematic than the keriya, because it's not so clear (at least to me) that the ba'al koreh has to have in mind to be motzi the tzibur in the keriya. It's a chiyuv to hear kri'as haTorah, not to be yotzei via shome'a k'oneh -- you need some way to be mechaleik between 4 parshiyos and other keriyos, or some other sevara. RTPF discusses this as well much more b'arichus.Chaim B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02231811394447584320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-9622529783968947342011-03-04T08:04:03.014-05:002011-03-04T08:04:03.014-05:00agreed. musaf much more of a problem.
