SHMIRAS SHABBOS: Shemiras Shabbos Kehilchosa (24:24) writes: “It is permitted to open on Shabbos a beach chair, a folding chair or folding table, and also a folding crib, because these items are opened regularly and because all parts are connected together. And just like it is permitted to open them, it is permitted to fold them.”

RHYME: “pure”

RIDDLE: Chaim’s secret is his midda of humility. The Ba’al HaTurim writes: [The 2nd word of the parsha is] עקב “heel” [is hinting to the middah of] humility. The Torah is saying: “Learn from the heel. It follows the foot, in a way of humility. Therefore, it does not get stubbed like the toes of the foot do”.

*Menucha’s answer are not to be taken as final decisions in halacha, but rather as a springboard for discussions, further study, and questions to a posek, etc.
