KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT BECHOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHE’HOO BEN HA’OLAM HABA

From Yalkut Yosef:

1. One who buys a new vessel/dish from a non Jew, he/she may not use it until they dipped it fully in the mikveh or in a river because our Hachamim (Sages) explained in Avodah Zarah 75b that these dishes must be dipped into the waters that a non pure woman dips into in order to be pure for marital relations (i.e. a mikveh). Our Hachamim discussed whether this law is from the Torah or decreed from the Rabbis, however this is simply a learning from the Pasuk in the Torah. On the other hand, from the words of Maran HaRav Shulhan Aruch, this law is directly from the Torah. The only law that is definitely a decree from the Rabbis is in regards to dipping a glass dish/vessel.

2. One needs to dip dishes that are made from all types of steel and glass. One should also dip all pyrex and duralex dishes which is taught by our Hachamim. However, in regards to clay and pottery or dishes that are made from plastic, nylon or porcelain, there is no need to dip these dishes in the mikveh.

SHAVUA TOV!
