<HTML>This is not in response to any digest in particular. I would just like to
bring up an issue that came up in a sugya in Pesachim today. Does anyone
have any references I might use to solve the 'al vs. le...' problem (i.e.
nusach haBrachot) on daf 7b. From what I understand, most rishonim and
acharonim make the distinction seem haphazard. Has anyone found a
satisfactory categorization for this problem?

different positions on the matter, together with its usual plethora of
footnotes (pp. 531-537). Shalom]</HTML>
