[Avodah] "Ancient" Minhagim

[Rich, Joel]

No.  The Halachah is that three women and fewer than three men is only a
reshus (SA OH 199:7), and there's no violation of Halachah when they
choose not to do so.  

Yitzhak
------------------------------
I suppose it goes back to different understandings of reshut - (e.g.
tosfot by arvit reshut) but in any event - would you understand this to
mean that HKB"H is indifferent to whether they make a zimmun or not?
