Erasing Sacred Texts for Practice
Question
A scribe who wants to practice proper erasure, and has a Pitum HaKetoret that he wrote but did not come out well, and wants to erase it to practice, is this allowed or is it considered destroying sacred texts?
Answer
Shalom Rav
It is forbidden to erase sacred texts except for the purpose of correction.
