Question

I am sending the mezuzahs for inspection and temporarily placing others for a week. Do I recite a blessing on them?

Answer

If one has never recited a blessing on the mezuzahs in this house, he should bless now when placing the mezuzahs from the gemach, and later, when the mezuzahs return from inspection, he does not bless them.
