questions that heal the world

Uncertainty, ספק, shares the same gematria with עמלק - Amalek. (gematria 240) So when we are in a place of halachic uncertainty, and we go to a Rav, and ask a sh'ela and receive a psak, we are fulfilling the mitzwah of wiping out the memory of Amalek, by removing halachic uncertainty from our lives. (by transforming a ספק into a פסק)
