Ask the Rabbi
- Halacha
- Dishes
- Immersing in the Mikve
Question
Why can we use glass bottles/jars (made by non-jews) that we buy in the store without them first being immersed in the Mikvah Kelim (for example: alcohol, juice, etc.)?
Answer
The first use is allowed because temporary use is permitted without immersion.
