Does renunciation (bitul reshut) by the Jews to one of their number suffice in place of renting from the non-Jew?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules that Jews renouncing their domains to one of their own does not help to create a 'lone Jew' status before the non-Jew — rental from the non-Jew remains required. The Mishnah Berurah explains this would cause eruv to be forgotten entirely.
