# A vessel not attached to the ground floating in the mikveh doesn’t invalidate it and the water inside it isn’t considered drawn water.<ref>Shulchan Aruch 201:16, Chelkat Binyamin 201:285 and 201:293</ref> | # A vessel not attached to the ground floating in the mikveh doesn’t invalidate it and the water inside it isn’t considered drawn water.<ref>Shulchan Aruch 201:16, Chelkat Binyamin 201:285 and 201:293</ref> | ||
# A sponge which was filled up with 3 lug of drawn water or a bottle with a small opening and it was filled with 3 lug of water if that sponge or bottle fall into a mikveh which is lacking 40 seah, they don’t invalidate it since the water is inside them isn’t connected to the mikveh. If the water were to be squeezed out of the sponge or spilled out of the bottle it would invalidate the mikveh.<Ref>Mishna Mikvaot 6:4 writes that 3 lug in a sponge or bottle with a small opening doesn’t invalidate it. Rash explains that they only made a rabbinic restriction if the water is exposed but not if it is contained. The Rosh adds that even if the water in the sponge or bottle certainly mixes with the mikveh it doesn’t invalidate it unless all of its water exits. Shulchan Aruch YD 201:16 cites this halacha.</ref> | # A sponge which was filled up with 3 lug of drawn water or a bottle with a small opening and it was filled with 3 lug of water if that sponge or bottle fall into a mikveh which is lacking 40 seah, they don’t invalidate it since the water is inside them isn’t connected to the mikveh.

* Why does the water in the jug not invalidate the mikveh? Rash (Mikvaot 6:4) implies that the Mishna is not discussing the water in the jug and in fact it could invalidate the mikveh. Rather, the Mishna is discussing water absorbed in the walls of the jug not invalidating the mikveh. Rambam (Mikvaot 6:4) understood that the water in the jug does not invalidate the mikveh since it doesn't mix with the rest of the mikveh. Rosh (Mikvaot 6:4) agrees. Rambam and Rosh on Mishna add that the jug's mouth is thin, however, in Rambam (Hilchot Mikvaot 6:7) he doesn't mention this detail. Mishna Achrona (Mikvaot 6:4) explains that 3 lugin of sheuvim can never invalidate a mikveh by being connected to a mikveh. They only invalidate the mikveh if they're poured into it. </ref> | |||
# If there is a clothing partially in the mikveh and a person squeezes water out of it into the mikveh it is considered drawn water to invalidate a mikveh with 3 lug. Some say that this is only the case if it is completely picked up out of the mikveh, while others say it is even if it is partially out of the water.<ref>Shach 201:46 writes that the Raavad holds that if the clothing is partially in the mikveh then water squeezed out of it isn’t considered drawn since it is still connected to the mikveh, however, the Rokeach holds that even if the clothing isn’t completely picked up nonetheless the water that is squeezed out of the clothing is considered drawn water. He cites the Levush who was strict for the Roke’ach.</ref> | # If there is a clothing partially in the mikveh and a person squeezes water out of it into the mikveh it is considered drawn water to invalidate a mikveh with 3 lug.
