I was recently called to a home in a well-known Jewish community in Long Island to inspect the mezuzot. As soon as I examined the first Mezuzah at the entrance,I had to deliver some difficult news to the owner.:

"๐—œ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐˜๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜†. ๐—”๐—น๐—น ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐˜‡๐˜‚๐˜‡๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—น (๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฑ)."

The owners were understandably shocked and frustrated. They asked me to explain what was wrong and why I was so certain they werenโ€™t kosher.

To demonstrate, I removed the Mezuzah nearest to where we were standing which I had not yet opened but it was obvious to me from the first Mezuzah would have a similar issue. What I showed them was truly alarming, the worst Mezuzah (if you can call it that) I found in 30+ years of inspections.ย 

The scroll inside wasnโ€™t written on parchmentโ€”it was printed on regular paper. To make matters worse, when I flipped the scroll over, it said in large English letters: โ€œ๐—ก๐—ข๐—ง ๐—ž๐—ข๐—ฆ๐—›๐—˜๐—ฅ.โ€

Never assume that a Mezuzah is kosher just because it came from a Judaica store. Mezuzot must be hand-written by certified sofrim on kosher parchment to meet halachic standards. It is important to find sofrim who are extremely knowledgeable. This is why I founded
