HOLY HANDLES

[26a top] R’ Ashi: A knife’s ownership is judged based on where the handle is located, and a purse is judged based on the location of its strings [ie: if the handle is facing into the public domain, it would belong to a finder].

Prac-T-cal Tidbits: Every element of an object (which may seem insignificant) may actually have huge ramifications that we might not necessarily think about. We should try to analyze various parts of things we come in contact with on daily basis to dissect their importance and usages. It is important to appreciate general and specific aspects of creations to come closer to our Creator.
