comment Prosthetic limbs in halacha
@msh210 et al. I honestly don't know how to reword this in a more concise way. I am asking if the halacha regards prosthetic limbs as part of a person's body or not. It should really be a yes/no kind of thing. Not a case by case.

answered “There is a son born to Naomi”? But it's a grandson — what's up with that?

comment Prosthetic limbs in halacha
@DoubleAA I think it's already reasonably scoped. Basically I'm asking if a prosthetic limb is considered part of the body or not. If it is I assume all the standard halachos apply.

revised How do we know that we have free will?
Since this pasuk is said only to the Jews I amended the answer to reflect that. The answer is only applicable to Jews and does not reflect a source for free will for non-Jews

@DoubleAA I think it's a good question but i guess you'll close it then.

comment Hand movements when lighting shabbat candles
I think the first part actually answers a different question (why do women cover their eyes after lighting). I'm not familiar with the chabad source (ner shabbat ch. 13). but perhaps there is more information there as to why that motion and why 3 times etc.

But then why not use "v'rapeh" or something more straightforward?
