Bag of Cucumbers in the Synagogue
Question
Hello,
A person went to the supermarket and bought a few items (a bag of cucumbers).
He has the opportunity to pray the evening prayer, but he needs to enter the synagogue with the bag.
Is there an issue with entering the synagogue with a bag of cucumbers?
Answer
Hello
There is no prohibition against bringing a shopping bag into the synagogue, but it should be placed in a respectful manner. For example, under the bench or in another concealed place.
