| Sep 27, 2019 at 21:29 | comment | added | rosends | I had a similar question -- I daven in an auditorium with a stage up front. People put seforim on the stage (which is a floor but at the same time, isn't being used as such). I'm not sure that these answers fully help me out. | |

retagged - "jewish books" is certainly a bit broad here and not really pertinent. the summary of "words" seems more appros pos

| Jul 2, 2014 at 22:43 | comment | added | Seth J | @double, like user6641, I'm unclear on that (hence the question). The assumption I had when posting is that it's probably ארץ, but more than likely someone applies that as any walking surface, and possibly it could be applied to any surface if the Torah lands on it in an uncontrolled, rapid descent. Maybe my question is less about flooring and more about dropping things. But I was trying not to be too narrow in my question and avoid this type of confusion in the reverse ("Well, why not ask what counts as a floor? We all know if it's dropped it's a problem, but maybe only on certain surfaces.") | |
| Jul 2, 2014 at 19:58 | comment | added | user6641 | why isn't just any place that people walk? isn't the problem that the torah is being degraded by lying among dirt/filth (chalilah)? | |
| Jul 2, 2014 at 19:28 | comment | added | Double AA♦ | Can you source your example? I believe the language there is ארץ ("ground"). In fact I want to close this as unlcear until you define the relevant Hebrew term we are seeking to understand. Certainly we will find no early sources about פלורים. | |

| Feb 13, 2013 at 5:26 | comment | added | Menachem | related: judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/16327/… -- and the tzitz eliezer brought in the answer discusses fasting and sefer torahs in great detail, it may address this aspect as well | |
| Feb 13, 2013 at 5:19 | comment | added | Shimon bM | I'm not sure, but I think one is also supposed to do some form of penance if the dropped sefer Torah lands elsewhere as well. In other words, if you fumble and drop the sefer Torah and it falls with a thud onto a table, I'm pretty sure that you still need to fast. | |
