Description

What is the source of kedusha of a shul and beis midrash? Is the kedusha biblical? Are the broken luchos holier than a sefer torah written by a sofer? Is it proper to give a eulogy or bring a casket in to a shul? Is it proper to perform a marriage ceremony in a shul? Should one strive to perform a bris in a shul? Does a bimah need to be in the center of a shul? How many windows should a shul have? Is it proper to have stain glassed windows in a shul? Where should the rabbi sit in shul? What is the status of the paroches on the aron? Can one live above a shul or aron kodesh? Why do we recite kidush in shul? How and when can a shul be sold, and what can be done with the money? Are there restrictions with what can be done in a former shul?
