<p class="MsoNormal"> Rav Zvi <b>Cohen</b>, in his Encyclopedic <b>Tevilat Kelim</b>: Rules that be-Di-avad Al haTevila is valid.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was surprised by this since the Mehaber in Bet Yosef explicitly rules against this shita (for le-khatehilla) and holds in SA that one should say “Al Tevilat Kelim.” Having done so, to say “Al haTevilah” would not be “Matbe’ah sheTavu
Hakhamim.” Any ideas?<o:p></o:p></p>
