[Avodah] (no subject)

[Joel Rich]

In a recent shiur R H Schachter mentioned that one of the reasons for the
attempted restart of smicha in tzfat was in order to be able to give malkot
(and associated kapara) to those who submitted to christianity. He then
mentioned that those rabbis assumed a court of smuchim could do this even
without hatraa having being given to the sinners. Any guesses as to why
they thought so?
