metzitza
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Pronunciation: ipa: /məˈt͡siːt͡sə/
Forms: form: metzitzah
Etymology: Borrowed from Hebrew מְצִיצָה (m'tsitsá, “suction”).
Senses: examples: text: This question is extensively discussed in halachic literature, mainly in connection with the question of oral cleansing of the mila (metzitza) , the suspension of Shabbar due to mortal danger , and the laws of family purity
ref: 1987, Ezra Rosenfeld, Crossroads: Halacha and the Modern World - Volume 1 page 166
text: the rabbi who taught that one can omit metzitza is not fit to have any question of Jewish law brought before him, unless or until he retracts his words
ref: 1991, Y.B. Goldberger, Sanctity and Science: Insights Into the Practice of Milah page 202
text: Breast feeding during the post-partum period can transmit HIV indicating that oral or gastrointestinal mucosa may be a portal of entry for the virus. This has halachic implications for a Mohel who has to do metzitza. A variety of unusual transmissions have been reported.
ref: 1995, Jacob Fleischmann, M.D., Jewish Medical Ethics, also published on page 5 of the May 1995 issue of Assia--Jewish Medical Ethics (Volume 2, Issue 2)
text: Many rabbis contend that metzitza is a procedure mandated by the Gemara as a critical step in ensuring the cleanliness and promoting the healing of the incision. For that reason the Gemara insisted that it be performed even on Shabbat (as pikuach nefesh), and instructed that any mohel who neglected this step was to be removed from his position.
page 123:
Perhaps we have to conclude, then, that the violent opposition to any modification of metzitza procedure in the nineteenth century arose not from the particulars of the suggested changes but rather from an awareness that the entire controversy was fundamentally a ruse by the enemies of Judaism to destroy the foundation of Torah observance. Thus, they were resisted absolutely, on ideological rather than on technical grounds.
ref: 1998, Gad Freudenthal, AIDS in Jewish Thought and Law, chapter "Brit Milah and the Specter of AIDS" page 117
text: The Gemara (Shabbat 133b) regards Metzitza as a medical necessity and the Chochmat Adam (149:14) believes that our sages required Metzitza for health reasons. However the Avnei Nezer in his Teshuvot on Yoreh Deah (338) insists that Metzitza is an integral component of Brit Milah and is not done merely for health reasons. According to the Avnei Nezer, the significance of Metzitza is deeply rooted in Kabala.
ref: 1998, Aharon Ziegler, Halakhic Positions of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik Volume 3 page 166
glosses: a procedure performed in Rabbinic Judaism after the Jewish ritual of brit milah (covenent cut) following the two added steps of priya (uncovering) and circumcision (circle-cut) mandated by the Gelmud in 500 CE: in this 3rd extra step a mohel uses his mouth to suck blood from the penis of the male (usually a baby) he just uncovered and circumcised, drawing the blood from the wound where the prepuce (foreskin) was amputated.

Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: peria

Senses: examples: text: See the Chidushey Ha-Ran, who states that even if one is no longer busy cutting / , i.e., with the milah,/ but /already/ started /doing/ the periah he is /nevertheless/ still classed as being occupied with the milah, since milah and periah are /classed as parts of/ the same action.
ref: 1900, Israel Meir (ha-Kohen) translated by Aviel Orenstein, Mishnah Berurah: The Classic Commentary to Shulchan Aruch Orach Chayim, Comprising the Laws of Daily Jewish Conduct · Volume 3 page 147
text: in the description of Abraham's circumcision eth is not sued. Rashi quotes Bereshith Rabbah, which explains that Ishmael underwent periah - the removal of an additional membrane below the foreskin - while Abraham did not.
ref: 1986, Avraham M. Goldstein, The Eternal Heritage: An Anthology of Torah Thought · Volume 1, page 192
text: The Midrash, extolling the wisdom and beauty of the human body which is uniquely constructed for the performance of mitzvot, notes that G-d gave people nails on their fingers so they could perform the rituals of melika (a form of schechita of birds in the Mikdash) and periah. Nevertheless, when mohelim developed a more efficient method of performing milah and periah in one step, no objection was raised.
ref: 1998, Gad Freudenthal, AIDS in Jewish Thought and Law page 123
text: periah was an innovation instituted over the course of time, most likely in response to the drawing down of the foreskin that was known from the time of the Hellenists and was still practiced during the time of the Hadrianic persecutions .. Proof that periah is an innovative requirement is to be found as well in the tradition that the Patriarch Abraham did not practice it.

synonyms: bris periah
qualifier: Rabbinic Judaism
