Rabbi Shabtai Levi Addresses How to Perform Hand Washing Without a Vessel During Bein Hazmanim
Rabbi Shabtai Levi, head of the Halachic Court 'Halichot Moshe' and chief rabbi of Ramat Aharon in Bnei Brak, provides daily halachic guidance on the website 'Bachadrei Haredim.' In a recent installment published on August 7, 2026, Rabbi Levi discusses the issue of how one should perform the ritual hand washing (netilat yadayim) during Bein Hazmanim (the interlude between Jewish holidays) when one does not have a proper vessel available. The article includes photographs of Rabbi Levi and demonstrates the method of washing hands using a bottle as an alternative vessel. This guidance is part of a daily halachic column aimed at addressing practical Jewish law questions during this period. Readers are encouraged to follow 'Bachadrei Haredim' for ongoing halachic updates and to join their WhatsApp group for further engagement.
