halacha - Words of Torah Need Not Be Enunciated


Ritva (commentary to Brachos 15b) writes that Torah need not be enunciated out loud during study. Which other Rishonim espouse this view?




I am not asking regarding side issues such as verbal recitation facilitating memorization. I am only asking about the actual mitzva itself.




Answer



Encyclopedia Talmudis (הרהור כדבור) says that the Meiri holds this way (it does not mention the Ritva) and any Rishon who holds the Halacha is like Ravina that thought is equivalent to speech in regards to Shema would hold the same for words of Torah.
