HILCHOS BEZIAS HAPAS: STEP BY STEP GUIDE FOR SHABBOS AND WEEKDAYS

The night coil started now summers man Hill of Bet Seuss a pass This is my name proof some of all some of sign some of this What does it mean Bet Seuss a pass? It's taco good the flyer now has a picture of bread that's pass what's what's Bet Seuss a pass? We learned till his mezuzah so you know what a mezuzah is though mezuzah could be in the doorpost Hill crease a tire What exactly does the word Bet Seuss mean? So the Gamora and Shabbos coffee design on the base the Gamora says I'm a bit Shabbos higher of all them lift so you all base kick race We're not going to go into the Gamora that's the Gamora about the Mishnah A lot of my clay kiss with shining him but the Gamora says that he's a key of on Shabbos lift so you all all base kick race lift so you all Bet Seuss a pass So Rashi says what does lift so you all means like Rashi beer kiss a moist see So for learning Hill kiss Bet Seuss a pass Hill kiss beer kiss a moist see Yes I bought the the a lot of his and I gave when you make a moist see the moist see the show corner by us when referring to Bet Seuss a pass the show corner doesn't understand doesn't use it the word as beer kiss a moist see but Bet Seuss a pass means cutting the bread the show corner right here and some of all some of sign but it's say all the pass the more coin should never hate him means you really make the cut you cut in the bread where it's well done where it was baked well And the MS is that the Gamora over there by the another line or two later is claw that Bet Seuss is actually cutting the Gamora says the zero of a box a cooler she reset Rashi understands it means that he he cut a big piece. Shabbos, he cut a big piece. And other days Rishonim learn differently, but Al Haponim it's cut. So even though as we saw earlier Rashi teaches bitzia the birkas hamotzi, here it's cutting. Even the earlier Gamorah, the first Gamorah that Rashi teaches liftzoya means to make hamotzi, the Rashba actually teaches liftzoya to cut. Shitas HaRashba is that Friday night Shabbos day, whenever you eat lachma mishnah, liftzoya you're supposed to cut into both challahs. Liftzoya is to cut. Rashi says liftzoya means to make hamotzi, which means the Gamorah is saying lachma mishnah. The Rashba says liftzoya means to cut. So what does it what does it mean base key Chris? Yes, you're supposed to cut both challahs of the lachma mishnah. Shmooz for itself, the Going was noig amaysa rav they bring the Going was noig like that. He cut by every suda both challahs. So mail of every suda two challahs became four. So the Going had yud base challahs over the whole Shabbos. The Going. So we have over here the Gamorah, even the first Gamorah that Rashba understands liftzoya is cutting. Liftzoya is cutting. Let's spend a minute just to understand when we're learning hilchos bitzias apas. Is it cutting? Is it a brocha? 12 challahs, 12 pieces. >> the wine later. Let's do it together. If every you have lachma mishnah three sudas are six and times two cuz each one is two is 12. The minig The minig of the divrei chaim was after making a hamotzi on both challis he cut one challah but he held his hand on the second challah. Why? Cuz in the gemara, the gemara says lift soya That's what lift soya how you understand means to cut. It's to cut the two challis, but if you're not cutting both, at least you're holding on to both while you're cutting. He held on to both challis to to the second challah. The maiseh, his son, the divrei chezkal, the shiniver, asks on the minig to hold on to the other challah cuz he says Rashi teaches lift soya means to make a hamotzi on both. So, you takah make a hamotzi on both challis, but cut you only cut one challah. Unless you go with the rashba that you cut both challis. Good, we're going to move on, but just on the note of lift soya, if it means to make a hamotzi, lift soya means to cut the challah. There's actually more taichin lift soya. The gemara says in sanhedrin a bless I marisha gazal saw if somebody steals a sawdy and he and he makes a dough and he's mafresh challah so the gemara says kates at mevorach hackly make a brocha on a frosh of challah from this that he was stole this dough ains at mevorach eleminites al zeh nemar uboitseya berach niats hashem. So, Rashi says over there boitseya loshen gezailah. In vayaishev the torah kadosha the pasuk says vayoymi yehudah el achav at betzach kinereg asachim Rashi says what do we gain mammoni? So, al kapana I'm learning hilchos betziyas apas. Betziya in the shulchan orech means cutting the bread. So, these Halachas we're learning now, we started this month, we're learning Halachas when you cut the bread, these Halachas. The first beginning of kuf sameach zayin, the Shulchan Orech, the machaber says that betzi'ah already starts before you make hamotzi. You're supposed to cut the challah anytime you make hamotzi. You're supposed to cut even before you make the hamotzi. The makor is the Tosefos in Brachos. And the reason for that is says Tosefos cuz if you don't if you if you if you're not going to if you first make the brachah and then you start cutting, it's a hefsek. Now, the pashtus it doesn't mean it's mamash a hefsek, it's hesech hada'as. You what you're doing is let's say you're cutting you're cutting you're cutting the bread to be able to eat it. It's something that you should try if you could to avoid cuz you could have done it before. You make a hamotzi and you realize you don't have a knife. See, it's let's say you're you made hamotzi and you realize that you didn't feed your animals. You have to go feed your animals. It's let's say you're feeding. But I'll come upon them you should cut before not to be goyrim hefsek between the hamotzi and the achilah. >> [clears throat] >> However, hayos there's a maila, there's a maila of making a brachah on a shalem. So, you should cut. You cut down deep into the challah, but cut enough that it should still be a shalem. What's the geder? Enough that if you pick up the challah from one half of the cut and the other half doesn't fall off, it's still considered a shalem. Whatever the cheshbon is, halfway down, but you do a good cut that you already started that by the time you made that motzi, you come out ready to eat. Zocher beer alacha m'meila, if a person has a small roll that it's not it's not a whole cutting a huge challah, you don't have to do it. I think I was right. What? The sound. You want to know if you should do a lot of cuts? So so the Am Ha'aretz says that's maybe for a schmaltz for itself. If the pshat is you made the Am Ha'aretz, so you cut one and then you eat and then you give everybody else. You do all the cuts. But in the sound, should you maybe do a lot of cuts like this you could give to everybody. But even we're talking about when you're being motzi other people to write that to be my but why so we're going to get back. You're saying during the week cuz we're going to soon get the Shabbos. If you have them at seudas during the week, you're giving out to a lot of people, should you already cut it up, you know, cut it before you find that it's In the middle for other people anyway so they have to wait. So the beer alacha says that if you have a small roll, then you don't have to make a cut. I was the guy today. I I I ate a pita. So I think that now that we're learning the alacha some thinking a little bit more. I think a pita is really where what the beer alacha is talking about. Something that's not a whole make a whole It's not a dinner alacha l'shaim cutting. The vile at least how we see so far. And the m'meila, the way you find where you don't really save time, it doesn't make a difference. Zocher Chafetz Chaim, you don't have to. Uh being being that when we cut, we want to make sure to still have a shalem. Zoc Toisvis, so many Toisvis. And the Rema over here by us is mamshech and says that Shabbos you shouldn't do it. During the week, cutting a big challah, a great bris challah, big challah, you do a big cut before the mighty. Masha'ik in Shabbos that we're concerned that when you cut, it might fall apart, you might not be matzliach to keep it whole. And for Shabbos, if you're not going to have it whole, you're not going to have lachma mishneh, so maybe you don't do it. You don't do it. B'choil, what happens in the weekday? Okay, if l'ma'aseh in the weekday you cut the challah and you mamesh went by mistake all the way down, or even you went down to the extent that it can't it falls apart, the meal is considered that it's not a shalem. Okay, so you don't have a shalem. Shalem during the week is a ma'alah. So you don't have the ma'alah, you don't have the ma'alah. Masha'ik in Shabbos, if it's going to fall apart, means it's going to separate into two parts, then you're not going to have lachma mishneh. If somebody actually made a mistake in Shabbos, we're learning over here in Shabbos, he forgot and he cut and he went he went down and he doesn't have a shalem anymore. So the Shulchan Aruch Vayiter in Siman Gimmel Gimmel Kuf Samech Ches Sif Beis says that you could connect it, so a piece ta'aros, you could connect it with a kism, with a toothpick to hold it together. It's considered a chibur. However, it's a big chiddush. Avada, l'chatchila we're not so bechon it. And the Chasam Sofer has a whole teshuvah. The Chasam Sofer was asked about a challah that was actually in a few pieces. Could you put it together with toothpicks to put all the challah together. The Tom Sofer said, let me tell you. A challah that you could put together two halves either kiss them with toothpicks is a chiddush. To add on to that, to add a few to say a few pieces that already not. So, may the Shabbos Shabbos you don't do it. This din of hilchos betziyas hapass, which starts by cutting the bread before you make the hamotzi, is not applicable on Shabbos. You don't do it on Shabbos. Is there din betziya on a pie pizza? Is it already cut pizza? Or or is it considered small? How would we imagine that? One second. A pie pizza is already cut. You talk about let's say a slice of pizza. It's all connected right now. So, should you leave it connected and do betziya on the whole pie? >> Cuz it's considered a shalem. Lema'aseh, even though by Shabbos we find by Shabbos we find that you don't you don't cut you don't cut. However, zog the Bach, the Bach the Bach brings from the Maharshal. And it's brought la'halacha the Magen Avraham brings this Bach and it's brought la'halacha in hilchos Shabbos the Mishna Berurah brings it in siman reish shin daled hilchos betziyas hapass by hilchos Shabbos the Chofetz Chaim brings this Magen Avraham. That even though you tackle make a full cut into the challah a third down halfway down, but you should make a rishum you should make a line. You should make a line a mark where you want to cut. Make a line. Why? Zog the Levushei Serud that ba'etzem you should cut a good cut to make that it shouldn't be a hefsek in between. However, hayois Shabbos you can't do it cuz you might lose the so at least do a little bit to make a line make a line that it should help out. The say the master explains a little bit more and he says like this you at least know where you're going to cut in the hallah. Yeah, where you going to cut in the hallah? The middle on the side that much that much you make a line you know where you're going to cut so you save at least some time. You don't save that time with the knife going in. But the mice he says the halo that make a line and you don't even see the line cuz my marvia what what are you doing? It's not minigame is saying to be a day to do it. So master is a task in doing it to help out to make the know where you're cutting. If you make a line no line happens you don't see the line so why are you doing it? You should do it that you should see it. Who is more times looking for the line? Oh, very good. That's the next thing very good is so it's I'm not sure if he's bringing it from the he brings about it but then he's I think maybe says himself but also he brings Kaminsky the exact same thing. That that's color. The task list of a line like we saw is to be in the half sick between the and the color. If you're going to start looking and searching for the line you lost the whole point of the point was it should be quicker but if you are looking for the line it takes longer rabbits then it's half sick. But then he's moist he's moist like this he says that you make the line but if if you don't find the line don't worry about it. It's okay. Why? Cuz the you gain by making the line that you already took the time where you should cut. You know sometimes how much the size of a family you're starting on the side, in the middle, are using only half a challah. So, the pshat is you already saved time by making the line. Middle of the challah, quarter of the challah, even if you don't cut mamash on the line itself, you already saved time. You already made that decision before where you're going to cut. So, Nachman, we have over here like this. During the week, during the week betzi'as ha pas is you cut into the pas. Shabbos, you don't do it. However, you make a line, a rishum. Lema'aseh, the Schlach, whose yahrtzeit is this Monday, the Baal HaNight of Yehudah, Night of Yehudah Yehudah is named after his father, Schlach. Tziyon LaNefesh Chaya is named after his mother. His mother's name was Chaya. Zogt the Schlach, if you take a look in that Tosfos that we mentioned before, that where Tosfos says take it to cut. Tosfos brings cholkim to etzem not to cut. Not to cut not to cut the challah before. Why? Because what happens when you cut and then the piece that you're cutting preparing to use falls on the floor, got dirty, and now you can't use it anymore. You're going to have to make another hamotzi. So, it's very nice that you take a cut because you want to save time, but this might cause a bracha of atalah. So, maybe don't cut. Tosfos brings a shita. Lema'aseh, Tosfos says that the halacha is not like that. We don't go with that. We don't pasken like that. Tosfos We don't pasken like that. Zogt the Zogt the Schlach, in a normal in the week, we don't pasken like that. Why? Because we want to try to make it as quick as possible from the hamotzi to eating the bread. But hayois Shabbos, we can't accomplish that. So, of you're just going to make us a line. The only thing you're going to gain by the line, you're not going to gain, you're going to lose because what happens, you made a line, which means the line is only saying, "Okay, so I'm using this corner of the challah." Then you make a motzi cuz the line already says I'm making the motzi on this corner. And then you cut it and it falls down, then you're going to make a it's a bracha batala. During the week, we don't go with that. We want to save time between the the motzi and the challah. But Shabbos, they were anyways not really gaining maybe a bit, but we're not really gaining exactly the slach for that. Let's go back to what Toisfus says that we don't want to be goyrim a bracha batala. So, we have over here the Magen Avraham it's the Bashal to make to be to make a line. The Slach says not to. There's another reason brought. It's not so clear if it's musmach from Rav Chaim that it's a chashash of mesartet surtet that says making a line in a safer Torah is one of the lam atest melachos. So, already shmooz already if it's negaya by by glass, by wood. And then maybe you're making a line, you shouldn't do it. It's a chashash maybe it would be a issur d'Rabbanan, but not to do it. L'maaseh, and then maybe that would be another reason why not to make a line on the challah. L'maaseh, it's not the pashtus. It's pretty clear in the poskim that they allow to make lines in food. The Shmiras Shabbos K'hilchasa speaks about it. And it's negaya, you have a cake, you want to cut up a cake on Shabbos, it's in a pan. So, you want to cheshbon how many pieces. You make lines on the top of the cake, and then you cut it. So, you can make lines. So, so that's could be would be a reason why not to make a line. There are some people don't use hollow boards. They claim that they mark the line on the board. Uh-huh. The wooden ones, I mean the glass. There's some that don't uh Some some wooden ones also doesn't uh doesn't make a line. They're it's taco wood already. They're it's taco not a hollow. Yeah, the hollow board. Is there a reason for the line also to indicate which challah you're making the bracha on? I don't remember that as a Maybe it was just made up. Uh-huh. Interesting. He uh He's saying maybe the line is to which challah. Not so much where you're going to cut, but just like this is the challah. That to be you self could have a mind and really if you put the by night the bottom challah, the top challah you So I know which one is on the bottom when I make the bracha. Yeah. The line. I didn't I didn't see it, but interesting. That would be another reason. The Torah's Chaim says another reason why to make a line. And he says trumah, ma'aser, everything that the Ribono shel Olam gives us, we take off from what the Aibershter gives us, we give it back to the Aibershter. Trumah, ma'aser, bikurim, challah, we take off. You can't give everything. You can't give the whole thing trumah. Trumah is you take off some. The Neli says like this, when you make a motzi, you could took off challah already. But when you make a motzi, besides that it's not gezela, because you made a bracha, like the Torah's Chaim, but you designated a piece on what you're making a motzi. Of all that you're going to eat it, but till you make the motzi, you're making the motzi, you kind of being mafresh that piece for the Ribono shel Olam. Therefore, he says you make the line, that piece, that part, that's where the line is. And the Neli says, that would be a reason even on Shabbos also. The line about the what the slock says is that the mice at a line for whatever reason you make the line. If the line is what you're going to use doctor slock these might come to block the bottle. But this is another reason why to make the line not like what we said before that it's going to be easier and faster cuz even if it's not easier it's not fast you don't even know where the line is. But the point is you're making a line you're designating this hillock you're going to cut you're going to eat and you're first giving it to Hashem and then afterwards making a brocha. Just to conclude with two more protein in is a lot but on the note of the etzem cutting so where do you cut? Where do you cut? We're in the holiday cut this this says really when you're cutting the etzem it's really what the mighty is on. So the Gamara already the Gamara says Meheges boy the mistress the mistress almighty the Gamara lay down on so the Gamara says I'm going to lay meheges the current be shula. The says either the current or the current to the shyness in Rashi but the shot is is where it starts getting done or the current where it gets hard and really based off the two the shyness it's a shyness if it's on the top of the bread or the bottom of the bread and the mailer one should have make the almighty on the top and on the bottom of the bread the bread and if a person does one it's to the shyness love okay that when you make almighty you're not supposed to eat from the middle of the bread. It's in the dinner Shulchan Aruch. One more alacha, when you cut the slice, you said you mark it before you cut. When you cut the slice, it's alacha over here. It's also brought by the hilchos Shabbos. During the week, you not You don't make a motzi like we said already before on the whole bread, the whole loaf of bread. You cut a piece, and even the piece is not supposed to be a very big piece. Not shaking Shabbos, the koved Shabbos is not cool. The person is a rav son, he can cut a bigger piece.
