How do we test and burn chametz? • How do I start a home basin? • What to do with a microwave? • Comprehensive explanation of all Passover celebrations for the confused celebrant

Everything that was ever true about Passover Laws seems to have changed completely in the Corona era. Using tools outside the home - forbidden, eradication of chametz - is also prohibited and simpler day-to-day practices have become more complicated today, such as haircut before the holiday and during the counting of the Omer. Rabbi David Fall and Rabbi Baruch Efrati make halakhic order - what is allowed and what is not to be done for the holiday, and how the required tasks should be performed.

- The Confused Celebration Guide: How to Arrange a Bowl and How to Have a Holiday?

Rabbi Efrati prefers to make it clear that "the laws are governed by the health regulations issued by the Ministry of Health close to the holiday. Halachic, there is an absolute obligation to obey the instructions of the Ministry of Health. In the event of a conflict between a specific section and the Ministry of Health's instruction, the Ministry of Health and the Chief Rabbinate of Israel must be heard."

Which chametz is allowed on Passover?

Rabbi Fall explained live on "Israel Today" that this year it is possible to facilitate the preservation of basic products that are not kosher for Passover, and are even perfectly sour. Of course, they must be sold for Passover, and can be done at the Chief Rabbinate, the Tzahar, the Dome, and other places. "Coffee, all kinds of things that they don't pickle, but that they might be swallowed with some morsel, they should not be used on Passover, but you do not need to throw them away," he says.

"In recent generations, it is a common practice in Israel to sell chametz that has a lot of loss in its burning," says Rabbi Efrati. "Now with the Corona Challenge, even those who in the past made sure not to sell chametz, can make it easier and sell chametz. You can sell it via email at the Chief Rabbinate of Israel website."

House cleaning

"Abolition of chametz takes us out of the unseen prohibition and will not be found. Abolition of chametz is the thought of chametz for nothing, and also its abandonment to many. We fear that we will find a Passover cake in our house and eat it on Passover by mistake, or we will not eliminate it wholeheartedly. Rabbi Efrati explains. "In the examination we are looking for large chametz (as an olive = matchbox volume), and not crumbs, which are eliminated anyway by eliminating chametz and no fear of being eaten. And the degree of Hasidism also look for crumbs less than the size of an olive."

As far as seniors are unable to get out of the house and find it difficult to clean it, Rabbi Fall says: "Truth be told, they have almost nothing to do. This year, the halakhic, educational and spiritual minimum needs to be done, especially for older people."

"For the most part, we are prohibited from chametz which is more than the size of an olive, about thirty cc. No need to clean and keep crumbs. It's compiled, but compiled by Alma. You don't have to. Adults should see that all the chametz is in one place. If he can get rid of him what's good, and if he doesn't sell it in chametz. The main thing is that the house is clean and tidy. We are not obligated to burn crumbs.

There is an initial opinion that the main thing about chametz eradication is in the fire and not the cancellation. So welcome before the review, but also welcome the cancellation. There is no reason and there is no need to clean places that usually do not put chametz, or places that we will not enter during Passover, such as tiny stars, under very heavy furniture and the like. There is no reason and there is no need to clean places that usually do not put chametz, or places that we will not enter during Passover, such as tiny stars, under very heavy furniture and the like. On average, three days can suffice for cleaning the house from the beginning. As mentioned above, there is no charge to clean up dust but from a sourdough that is in an accessible place.

Cleaning the vehicles and the yard

The vehicles must also be properly cleaned since chametz is put in it. And the baby stroller. And in the toy box. Rabbi Fall mentions that this year, because there are severe restrictions on travel due to the Corona, it is possible to sell the car to Goy and not use it on Passover. "A courtyard, a garden, an open balcony and an unused daily roof do not need inspection, but must be sure that they do not have chametz packed. We rely on the kindly crows of Israel," emphasizes Rabbi Efrati. He also says: "The cleaning of the house must not cause spiritual scarring in our children. Everything is in a pleasant and positive atmosphere, of the love of God and the love of the Torah."

Chametz test

In many homes, pieces of bread are scattered during chametz testing to find them. Rabbi Fall says that this custom can be given up this year. "This custom is nice and beautiful, but really we keep the mitzvah of chametz even if there is no morsel. If it is difficult to do this, you can give it up. Candle or the lantern, greet the greeting and go out to make sure there are no chametz except in the closed places that are sold.

Burning chametz

"This year it is highly recommended not to go burn the chametz because it creates forbidden congregations," says Rabbi Fall. "That is why we observe the halakhah as written at the Aruch table - you can corrupt the leaven in bleach, throw crumbs into the toilet. The custom is that burning, but when it is difficult to follow the halakhah in its source - burn it in other ways."

You answered first

Rabbi Efrati points out that "a mask is ending for the Tormentor's elders, and participants in it are exempt from the Taanit. During these days of the Corona Challenge, it is permissible to make a feast even at the conclusion of a book from the Bible, with commentaries or Rashi commentary. And will also give charity for redemption. "

Training Tools

"The rule is - as they were swallowed up," Rabbi Efrati explains. "Vessels that use fire really with chametz have our hearts on fire. And tools that use boiling chametz cooking (such as pots) should be gobbled up. Sephardim - go by most of the use (fire or water), Ashkenazim - are stringent even if a few times have used fire tools, to our hearts. Scouring - in boiling water with bubbling. Incandescent - in 'Brenner' or fire from another source. " Rabbi Efrati explains that 24 hours should be waited without using a tool intended for uploading.

- A tool that is only used in infusion or heat of a 'second vessel' (such as hot drinking glasses, plates and spoons) - can be prepared by boiling water infusion. The people of Spain are the law for most of the tools used in this way (such as knives and spoons).

- A tool that is used for cooking or eating hot things in the first vessel (such as pots and serving spoons) - must be trained by lightening or lightening.

- Tools that are swallowed are by fire without liquid (such as pots for Jhannon or Kugel) charged with severe incandescent, but even in this context the people of Spain will go according to the common use and the sons of Ashkenaz according to the most severe use made of the tool. Oven molds: In the first place, severe incandescent needs, and when necessary, lightly incubate.

- Pan - The judges were divided in Dinah: Sephardi is quite disgusted, and Ashkenazi sons need a slight incandescent

- Pottery, porcelain and porcelain: The simple custom is not to train them at all (if they are used in heat). Strainers to train porcelain vessels three times. The Ashkenazites - Some have refrained from the training of glassware, glassware: to the Spaniards, they are always charged with cleaning only; However, many have made it easier to train them like a metal tool, and they have to be scolded three times.

How to scour tools at home?

In normal years, public spaces have exaggerated the corners of Lebanon, but this year this was not possible due to the plague. Therefore, Rabbi David Fall and his son, Rabbi Avraham Fall, explain how to perform the exhortation at home:

1. Thoroughly clean the power tool and do not use it for 24 hours. If there are places that they cannot clean, they should be ignited, or bleached, blubbered, or any other food that would make them unworthy to eat. The handles should also be cleaned and disassembled whenever possible; If this is not possible - spills should be poured onto the cracks around them.

2. Take a large saucepan that has not cooked in the last 24 hours, fill it with water (and preferably some soap) and boil the water until it is bubbled.

3. Put the tool that you want to simmer for a few seconds. It is common to wash the tool immediately after running it in cold water, but it does not inhibit it.

4. When two tools are disguised, make sure that they are separated so that the water enters both.

5. If the Vessel Load tool cannot enter the Vessel pot at one time, it can be done in two steps (as opposed to dipping tools in the mikvah which must be done at once).

6. A large pot that cannot be put into the scalding pot can be prepared by boiling water in it and then inserting a hot object (such as a small pot that warms the fire) into it until the water slides over its rim.

7. The commemoration must be done before the Chametz ban begins (this year: Wednesday, JD Nissan, around 10:00).

8. In retrospect, if he has not been able to use the tool before, it can be used until the holiday starts, provided that it is 24 hours after the last use of chametz.

9. In retrospect, if he did not manage to disguise the holiday until the holidays: Spanish people can disguise themselves in the dead, and the Ashkenazites are aggravated. Training in Lebanon (and even in light Lebanon) is also permitted on Passover itself to Bnei Ashkenaz.

How to Rectangle?

1. Light incandescent: All the tools that are loaded with a canister or transfusion can also be prepared with a light incandescent, and this is sometimes more convenient when we do not have a large enough pot. Light incandescent is a fire-heating tool, and if it is put on the outside, it will burn. This can be done with normal fire: put a piece of paper in the tool and see when it is browned; And it can also be done in the oven, when the dishes are in the heat of 200 degrees and up for 20-30 minutes.

2. Severe incandescent: Severe incandescent is heating the vessel with fire until sparks are sprayed from it. This is a difficult - and even dangerous - procedure in the home kitchen.

How to clean various tools at home:

Rabbi Efrati describes how to clean various tools and enclosures in the home in an easy and kosher way for Passover. (Below - different methods of Rabbis David and Abraham Fall, and each one will follow his own and many methods).

1. Marble - Clean the marble and cover it with wax or thick foil, where we place the pots on Passover. Another option - to pour water bubbling on the marble from a kettle. Where pots or dishes are not placed - there is no obligation to cover, but water and soap must be cleaned.

2. Pottery Sink - Buy a sink and place it in the sink. Or watch the sink in foil. Or pour boiling water, but then try not to put hot dishes on Passover. Metal sink - Exhale infusion of bubbling water from a kettle.

3. Oven - clean with hot water and soap until no crumbs are seen, run an hour on the highest heat. Special Easter baking patterns should be bought instead of the usual ones. Some of them used to avoid using Passover completely in our ovens, but most of the law is allowed after this training.

4. Pyrolytic furnace - run on a cleaning program in the highest heat. Thoroughly clean the rubber bands, with damaged material.

5. Dishwasher - clean well, including strainer. Wait a day. Run with soap on a full program while it is empty. The trays should be disguised, but there is no obligation. The strainer should be disinfected by infusion.

6. Plastic Tools - Disgust. And the aggravated scolding 3 times will come a blessing. And if they have slots, it's best to avoid using them.

7. Baby Bottle - Replace, and if there is no choice - scour like any plastic tool.

8. Kiddush Cup - Disgust or replace. And for the Spanish, his washing is enough.

9. Dining-table-clean and replace and enough. And if you want to eat directly on it - scald it with boiling water.

10. Microwave - It is best to avoid using. When needed to clean well. Boil half a cup of water with soap. If there is a glass tray, Ashkenazim - take it out and use it without a tray, or wash it three times a day. And to the Spaniards enough to wash the glass plate. And it should be heated in a closed vessel.

11. Braces - You should buy one for Passover. But it is permissible to operate at the highest per hour, and cover with thick foil.

12. Humidifier - It is best to avoid using it. The law is allowed after boiling water is poured.

13. Cabinet - clean with a damp wipe. And if it's a hassle, and not used on Passover, close it and sell it in chametz.

14. Refrigerator - Generally clean with soap and water so there is no chamomile in it. No need to go with a toothpick or pour boiling water.

15. Keyboard and Computer Mouse - Many eat near them during the year and Passover. It is therefore necessary to turn and shake, and it is appropriate to clean with a damp cloth.

16. Mobile Phone - A damp cloth should be passed over the fairy.

17. Dentures - Clean with soap and water, and boil infusion. And if you are afraid of being infused, the soap and water are enough.

The Fall Rabbis are adding refinements to a number of tools and cleaning them for Passover

(Some of the methods are different for Rabbi Efrati and Rabbis Fall, and each will go his own way)

1. Wine Cups: Spanish - Wash; Ashkenazim - disgusted.

2. Cold drink cups only: Rinse.

3. Hot drink cups: glass - infusion or disgust; Porcelain - In the beginning, Passover is not to be used.

4. Stove (Induction): Clean well, place an empty pot on the stove and heat it to the highest degree until paper is placed on it.

5. Stove (gas): The surfaces must be cleaned; The tripods should be viewed with foil or prepared with a slight incandescent and the beaters can be disguised.

6. Dishwasher: Cleaning the strainer and operating on the longest and highest temperature when the dishwasher is empty.

7. Teflon pan: Do not use it on Passover.

8. Mixer: Clean all parts and clean the metal and plastic parts.

9. Microwave: Clean well, wait 24 hours without heating the chametz, and heat water with soap in the cup at maximum heat until the appliance fumes (5-10 minutes). The pieces of plastic and glass that fall apart must be disguised.

10. Coffee machine: external cleaning.

11. Gas BBQ: Clean and operate for half an hour at maximum heat.

12. Tablecloths: Wash.

13. Pot: disassembly, cleaning and scouring.

15. Shabbat Braces: Thoroughly cleaning and operating for half an hour (some are covered with foil).

16. Marble: Cleaning and infusion of boiling water.

17. Baking molds: Molds that are baked directly - they should not be used on Passover. Molds that have other molds on them - lightly incandescent in the oven and initially silver foil should be observed.

18. Baking oven: Clean well and run at maximum heat for half an hour.

Kosher Passover Products (Rabbi Efrati)

1. Eggs - luxury, despite the seals.

2. Medication for ingestion - If it is flavored, it needs kosher. If it is bitter - allowed to use. Anyway, it's better with Passover kosher.

3. Soap / shampoo / perfume / aftershave / makeup - are allowed to use even without kosher, and the aggravator will be blessed (as a lubricant to eat on Passover)

4. Toothpaste - requires Passover kosher, and at the time of stress is also allowed without kosher

5. Baby food - Passover training needs

6. Dog food - needs Passover training. The forbidden food of the animal must be sold at the sale of chametz.

7. Rich Matzah - Ashkenazim do not eat (a patient or small child is allowed). Spaniards are allowed, and some have also been aggravated by Spaniards in industrial raisin cookies.

8. Milk - You do not need to purchase milk before Passover, the large dairies are strictly adhering to the law

9. Shopping - It is appropriate to aggravate and exaggerate the eating of purchased products on Passover, and to buy orderly rabbinic rather than unfamiliar kosher products.

Legumes (Rabbi Efrati)

10. Ashkenazim are forbidden to eat legumes on Passover

11. Most of the people of the Eastern communities used to eat legumes. The Spanish food does not really eat legumes, but can eat legumes that are absorbed by the legumes, and some of the legumes are worse aggravated.

12. Spain married to Ashkenazi - she is allowed to eat legumes in her parents' home, but not in her home. Ashkenazi married to Spaniard - she is allowed to eat legumes, and she should be allowed to make vows.

13. Some say the banned legumes are just the same ones that were in the shear days, as well as provided that the legumes come in contact with water in their preparation process. But if not one of the conditions, the law allows them to eat on Passover. Therefore, limpid / quinoa / soybeans are not included in the legume ban, as they were not in the shear days.

14. Legume oil dried in dry pressing, the RAA allowed for Passover eating, since it did not come into contact with water at all during its production process. Therefore, canola oil and the like is allowed on Passover

15. Industrial products of legume mix (the legumes are not the majority of the product) produced before Passover, YA that is allowed for Passover food, such as chocolate and the like.

16. These days, when we face the Corona Challenge, Ashkenazim are allowed to rely on each of the above permits in the first place, when needed, and avoid only legumes that were cut off at the time of Passover, and did not touch most of the Passover eve, and touched the water during preparation.

17. Legumes are allowed to be given to the pet during Passover, and the patient is allowed to eat legumes.

Products that can be used on Passover without Kosher Passover stamp and are allowed to Ashkenazi despite the "legume eaters" stamp

Rabbis David Fall and Oren Chavdani published a document before Passover that various products that may be used may be used even without a Kosher Passover stamp and many products are allowed to Ashkenazi even though they are marked "legume eaters". It should be noted that this is a precedent and everyone will follow his methods. The rabbis also note that the food industry today includes a huge variety of processes and raw materials that may contain complete leaven and other prohibitions, and therefore anyone who is unfamiliar with the field will find it very difficult to determine the halakhic status of a processed product just from looking at its component list.

The following products are kosher for Passover as long as they are in closed packaging and not opened before Passover:

1. Frozen and fresh fish.

2. Frozen and fresh meat (not minced, not kebab, no burgers and hot dogs).

3. Frozen and fresh poultry.

4. Olive oil and canola oil (also for Ashkenazi); Soybean oil and corn oil (for Spanish).

5. Frozen vegetables, such as broccoli cauliflower, carrots and the like (for Spanish: also corn and peas); Canned corn, peas and carrots.

6. Coffee (including capsules); Tea (black, white, green, but not fruit or flowers); Cocoa and dark chocolate.

7. Honey.

8. Meat products written for "legume eaters" - because the legumes are a minority, out of sight, and processed. Ashkenazim can also eat them.

9. Durable milk; butter; Yellow cheeses labeled "Passover kosher for legume eaters" are also allowed to Ashkenazim, as well as other dairy products and sweets.

10. Sugar and salt.

11. Dry legumes (for Sephardim) - The practice of eating legumes on Passover can buy dry legumes (lentils, rice and the like) without Kosher for Passover, but they must be cleared before Passover for wheat grains.

12. Canned tuna in water or olive oil for Ashkenazi; And the Spanish also in vegetable oil.

Passover eve, Wednesday, by Nissan (Rabbi Efrati)

1. During the day matzah is not allowed (rich matzah is allowed). And some also avoid eating bitter.

2. Eating Chametz by 10:02 AM Burning Chametz by 11:22 p.m. (The times are appropriate for Gush Etzion). And some are stricter at earlier times as detailed in the tables.

3. After midnight today (12:41), we should not do a complete job such as extinguishing, because we are busy with the Passover offering (when the Temple is built). But Passover craft is allowed, as well as work that prevents much financial loss. And also allowed for ironing.

4. It is appropriate to pray an early offering, followed by a Passover sacrifice order. Prepare the Seder table and bowl as the custom of the community. It is good to buy matzos reserved for the Seder, and to sleep to have the Seder power.

5. It is appropriate to refrain from entering the place where he sold or rented to a foreigner, and in times of great need allowed.

Good day Passover

Lighting candles before the holidays, welcome to 'light a good day candle', and 'live.' It is worthy to compose and place thick candles to light up until the end of the Seder.

On the Seder night, we will focus on the memory of bondage and the memory of salvation and tell our children about it. The main point of the holiday is the transfer of information and experience of God's bondage and redemption, on to the next generation.

Rabbi Efrati points out that there is no permit to film or broadcast or watch the Seder by an app or computer program. Even if one makes the order alone. Rabbi Fall sharpened and made it clear that if there is a specific mental or physical need that requires a permit, contact the rabbi.
