Can one perform yibum , instead of chalitza, today? Does the cherem of Rabeinu Gershom apply today? Do bigamy laws preclude marrying two wives? What is the difference between a minhag and a takana d'rabbanon? Does an American tourist keep two days of yom tov, when visiting Israel? Should married women not wear a human hair sheitel? Can a wife, who is a minor, become a sotah? Where in the torah, does one learn the din of zachin l'adam shelo bephanav? When does a divorcee not collect her ketuba? Chumash-Pekudei- Hashem took away the beit hamikdash because of our sins, and it is like a mashkon. Why do Litvish yeshivas conclude the third bracha of benching without b'rachamav?
