The Letz, Part III

Hi,

"[The category of Letz also includes:] One who verbally mocks deeds or things, not because he personally scorns them but because this is the way of people who are happy for no reason, and it is a joking practice. Sometimes wine and intoxication causes this."

(Rabbeinu Yonah, Shaarei Teshuvah III 177*)

חג אורים שמח,
Mordechai
