seems to be very good okay so turn to
the page which begins with a page three
it says
you all have it yeah
okay aleph llama gem of
it's good to be careful 30 days before
well i am beholden i said to be
particular
about everything that you do
there should be no comments left around
here there and everywhere but
even because in a manner that you won't
be able to really get rid of it
easily out of pesach so in general just
you know be particular
of of of not leaving around comets here
there and everywhere
yes
one should be careful not eating matzah
30 days of a peso
including kosher machine matzah even
though
many of us don't eat machine matzah
nevertheless
if it's kosher le pesach you should not
be eating it 30 days before
so let me say that for example this past
shabbos which was already uh
technically after after 30 days less
than 30 days
they had i saw insurance crackers
and and we ate from it why because
they're not kosher la pesa
now people uh
what about egg matza and egg mod says
something that
that's very convenient especially if you
have children in the house
and the week before pesach and people
are used to eating mozzarella and all
that
so a lot of people eat egg matzo so
there too
since the halacha says that egg matzah
should not be eaten unless for
pesach unless someone is not well
so for most people it's it's not it's
acceptable to eat
egg matzah 30 days before
okay because for most people they would
not be eating that an pesach
but any matzah that's crushed for pesach
and what's the reason what's the reason
for this law so that we should have an
appetite to avon
so we're we're preparing ourselves for
appetite 30 days before
that's that's one of the reasons
israel
and to gather such funds for people who
need help
it's an obligation and the shabbos uh
very big thomas hawkins spoke in our
school
and he pointed out to us that amongst
the nine
virtues that the rambam list for giving
sadaka
is not mentioned why not
because it's not a tsudaka it's a mass
it's a tax if you look into sukhoi
says it it's a mass a tax was put on
every jew
to give moy sritan so it's not siddhaka
it's a it's a tax that's why he uses the
word here again you know he's
not not he wrote the word it's an
obligation
everyone should participate with
whatever you know
and let's go further
uh its property says to know the people
that are
okay i don't know i don't know if i
agree with that that's his opinion
why must you know the people and if you
don't know the people
sometimes the mitzvah is even better
anonymously you know
anyway but i guess what he means is that
if you know
people that are mitsuru you should go
out of your way
to to make sure that they have all of
their needs
that you should know spoke about this
so much in for years it was only pacer
time because it's brought in
but then in the late the llamas i
believe started to talk about it in the
70s
tishrei too but israel we don't have the
same halal
obligation
here we're talking about prussian alaska
you know we're not talking about in
in spirit and meaning and
so tishrei i don't i i don't i don't
think
you could say it's a halacha i mean some
want to stretch it you know but i'm
talking about pastors
for the average jew opens up or goes
towards russia
it's it's it's the it's the hive for for
nissan and not
tishrei and that ever spoke a lot about
it and
we should all you know do this as as
frum yiden everyone
a little bit everyone in their own way
let's go invited
was very particular to send to those
that he knew i could upon him
for the satan
and specifically
this is his opinion he's saying that
it's whatever that the chosen on
him because the idea of matzah the zayah
says
it's full of faith
and you have to work on your faith even
from when you're still a miner
so even him should eat from
the shimura matsu
and it cures people who have mental
mental
issues you should know that ebber
had mata in his draw all year round
and not that he was eating matzah during
during the afternoon for his
his lunch maybe he did but that there
were people who came into him with all
kinds of
issues and they never took out a piece
of matzo and gave them they should eat
in the middle of the year
so i'm just saying mata
has curing powers
so if you get especially if you get
maksa from
whatever you know you might want to keep
a piece
for the for when you need it during the
year yes yaakov
isn't there an indian the the vastly
common as a shimiro
uh the africa man too yeah yeah yeah but
i'm saying in general
the the statement here is about maths in
general
you're talking in particular about
afrika yes absolutely
let's continue we'll see we'll see how
we'll see if we get there what he says
in educational institutions
to teach the students how to make a
sader vessel
and i want to say that i've seen by
adults
they come to the seder and they don't
know how to make a cairo
now it says and the rabbit did it this
way
that ever when he when he made us qaeda
it
it it sounded and felt like he's
learning like
the olive phase he would say the words
of of
of instruction in the haggadah
issa there lay
cayenne levy israel so he took a matzah
cayenne
to kamatsu levy to kamatsu you throw
and this is how he built his kaira right
now he did that because that he
he learned shot that the altar ebba
wants you
to say that as you prepare your kayak to
make it significant
and that's the way chabad does it just
for the record that's the way
those that follow me should be making
the qaeda
you come home and you set up your qaeda
by saying what you're doing and it would
be nice if people
who are your family and friends who are
joining you for the say there
would would would see this and
participate but what i'm
what i'm saying here is that it you know
it looks bad to me you know when someone
comes to the to the say there
and and they don't know they're like
scattered it it's so
it's it's it's so you know it's not the
way it should come to a seder and the
way to do it is you need to take time
the night before the day before the
afternoon before
and organize in your head
the the order of the coyote so so you
especially if you're the leader of the
seder
you're leading other people and people i
remember when the chabadas when i led to
public seders i did that with the people
so that i was the leader and they were
following and it had cohesiveness
and it adds to the the the dimension
and and and spirituality and beauty of a
satan
and to do that you need to prepare
that's it and what i'm saying is
even someone who might know but they
forget
oh what goes now what goes now what that
you know what i'm saying and being that
it's once a year
we tend to forget so if you prepare it
it'll flow easier and nicer
yes motion yeah a good question
regarding the kara
according to minute
we obviously have the car up just remind
me the matsas the three matsas
they have to be placed i mean can they
be
like like i don't have a um i don't have
a car that is like elevated
you can put the matzos underneath
so i just i always put the matzos you
know of the cara
and then i have the matzos the three
months is one drop of another
no no no way
the uh the five items the six sided the
six items need to be on top of the
monsters
okay so the way to do it is
first of all it's so inexpensive buy
yourself a claw a cloth
cairo what's the big deal what do you
mean what do you mean a cloth kyle
that are metal you know they're
then they have cloth you know with
three separations and and cohen labia
throw
you've never seen those no i
okay so you put your three mosses
into that and on top of that you put the
six items
uh-huh okay okay
but how do you avoid than the six items
not breaking the matzos first of all you
don't slam them down
you put them on delicately and
and and if any of them because
since khabar is very particular in
general
are particular about about not wetting
the matzah
you want it's best to put each in a
little a little plastic cup or on a
napkin
so so that it doesn't seep through
so we started to use these little
plastic saucers you know very
small ones right so let's say the
so therefore if because if the uh
the romaine lettuce if you're using that
which is khabar custom to use your main
letters as well
is still wet you don't want it to seep
through into the muscle
so you should definitely put something
under it now if everything is dry
you won't have an issue except for one
thing the characters because the
characters
is supposed to be a little damp
but but regardless in other words
when you have this cloth the
there's a separation between the top
matzah
and and where you put the
six items on right
yeah so so so you have a separation
technically
i just was i just was adding that you
might want to
also have a little plastic saucer or a
napkin under the item
so that it doesn't uh also it helps you
that it shouldn't roll off
sometimes because the matzahs are
especially bad customers to take we'll
see soon
a matzah that's like a kaley that's like
a kaley
so that tends to make the items roll
and if you and and then you don't have
the six items and according to cabela
you're supposed to have
three set two segals one
two three one two three the setup
of the items is made
based on the three two circles so you
wanna kind of keep that
till you start partaking from the items
and
uh what i find is either a napkin or a
little saucer is helpful for that
okay everything else clear for everyone
but
i'm not saying this is everyone's mimic
but those that this is the chabad minute
if you want to follow that this is it
okay now let's go back
um
he writes that the rebel suggested
having knew new haggadahs for the young
children
i don't know why is this kardashians if
it's from last year
i guess it means maybe if you give them
a new god they'll excite them more
whatever that's already an expense but
that every
every child should have in a god is
important
um
in other words right it's a story
there's a question and then comes the
answer of
other megin who knew by the time we get
to the answer
are the kids following the answer so
he's saying that if you make the hot
good
interesting you know in in
if the actual how good the is colorful
with pictures
you could create uh that the child
is interested in knowing what the answer
to the questions is
because we don't want to remain by the
questions
there is a suggestion let's go on
um
he says interesting things here okay
this is this is some of it's
his own his own uh
or he says you should buy a new why a
new a new
uh siddha dish uh why and who said that
because
he's supposed to buy chloe's vegus no
you know um
uh walnuts you're supposed to why won't
why because to give the children to play
with
knew today we give them chocolate a lot
of people chocolate you know
cultural peso chocolate the point being
to get them
to be involved and to stay up and
so he says if the hello and but mentions
that
this idea of buying claudia's vagus
walnuts
is not a fairy tale it's brought down in
halacha
so it's so the rather book it is saying
that if this is true
for buying uh your players vaguson to
excite them
surely if you buy them a new sitter or a
nuagata it will excite them as well
okay let's go on
um
we start reading after chakras after
telling for
those that say tell him after davening
parsons and nasi
which is the baby's custom the parsers
are nasty
uh every uh leader of a tribe
nasi brought that day carbonis
moshe we in the first day we begin but
it was the end
when moshe finished directing the the
mishkan um assignment and we conclude
that
we shaved on the thirteenth day of
nissan
we read from missouri's hanukkah
at kenosha
um this is corresponding
to levy but on the 13th we do not
say the ahirozong which we're going to
talk about in a moment
so for the first 12 days we read this
the nussey
right each day with the herod saying on
the 13th day we read
also a section from the tata but we do
not say the heretsa
why because there's only 12 tribes there
aren't 13 tribes
but the 30th day is that the the the
culmination
and the sachal the the totality of
everything that was brought
so we read it but we do not uh
say
okay now you probably have been to
schulz i don't know how they do it in
this
kodesh moshe do they do it this way they
read then they see him from a safer
torah
is that the way you're doing education
no
no okay but you know that there are many
schools that do that that way
they used to do it correct
says so he says the previous rabbit
didn't so didn't become a
bad customer for you it's known that the
customs of the previous rabbit next page
four
kahana for the mighty the queen
said
spoke about has been a uh a slowdown a
breakdown
in the carefulness of saying to the cm
daily
um and especially the
hero so spoke about uh
it's important to strengthen that minute
but even
you know to say it with such love
because greater
is the love for the words of the sages
than the words of the torah
and this is even more emphasized when it
comes to minham
jewish customs to show a great love for
them therefore
to make sure to say it
everyone agrees right now we're in the
middle of feuds
say don't say we're middle of the seven
days
of me
other till through la madison are the
seven days in which
the measure prepared for the the
the uh the establishment the erection of
the uh
of of the mishkan it's called the
shivasi mehamalu in the seven days of
training
so there are many people hasidim in
particular
who don't say taft on that day haba does
and others do
and uh sometimes you can get into a big
issue in jewels
so that's
then but when it comes to nissan it's
no arguments
30 days
the listen comes every person has to
announce
interesting everyone has to live
miraculously
during this and because it's the month
of nisim so
there are certain things throughout the
year we can't do it we feel can't do
them but now
since it's the month of nisim you have
to make ah the kind of to live with
nissan with miracles
okay this is his own thought which is a
nice thought
right we learned in the very beginning
that the halakhah says you're supposed
to
learn and ask the learn about the laws
of pesa 30 days before pesach
there's another opinion nikki motor
moisture he says only two weeks
we don't follow that when we take the
opinion
he says you could even fulfill the
opinion of
reprimand bengali that the two shah
bosses in other words
uh not the shabbos the following shabbos
and the following shabbos
should be should be more special in your
learning
okay you darling he mentions that
on the second of nissan is the is the
york side of the river ashab
the fifth rabbit he passed away mozai
shabba
on the second of this in 1920 and he
lies
in rostov on the
dun river and it was the day when the
previous never became the leader
one of us men and women and children
uh should utilize the opportunity to
learn thailand
and have fabregas on that day then he
speaks about udall of nissan
i want instead of his birth is a special
day good but i i want to i want to skip
that
go to the next to page five
you're basing this so this year we're
fasting china's behind it
on on on right we're doing it on
thursday because we don't fast on friday
whether you're a first born to your
father or to your mother
because we memorialize the nest that was
done
the democracy is the firstborn
it doesn't mean you have to just have a
scene of a scepter if there's a priest
that day or a pig in a bend
or in a sin it's considered smithsonian
so as long as you participate in that
it's also accomplishing that you don't
have to fast
you're exempt from the tightness
you don't have to just finish
babylonians
but even in your jerusalem shots
it's important i'm sure you've seen this
and done this and
you know that even young children who
are on the bar mitzvah should come
to the scene um
and you should eat something from
the sugar now a survey doesn't normally
assume it means washing
but people are makel and they don't wash
and they have a cookie
and then today many people don't even
even give them zoynies
because it's already a piece of dick so
you have macaroons which is shahakal
right
so but it's fine it's fine for the for
the seal
what if someone didn't go to a cm
and he forgot the fast and friday he
remembers should he fast
nope you don't fast out of shoppers
um but the fastest uh
but this year it's thursday it's
thursday and i said
what if someone forgets what if someone
forgets it's thursday
so he does not fast on friday
if someone if someone if some if someone
didn't
if someone didn't go to a seal
so you have to make it up if you didn't
first i think it's this question
is it well it says here he doesn't give
her a reference ain't lately assange b
i don't believe so
he doesn't fast he missed the fast dude
he missed it yeah okay
okay okay let's go to leo badika's
comments layla you gimmel
let me just ask you a question on that
note then yeah
if the person's a beholder and he
doesn't go
to assume he doesn't go to suit his myth
and so forth so must dominate he would
have to fast
yes you know that there were some people
who fasted anyway i think they i think
they say that ever fasted
[Music]
the regular person doesn't do it i'm
just saying that
you know i i think i heard that the
rabbit
did it and i'm sure there were some that
you know were very
uh whatever i i you know i don't know
okay
but but we we we we go to a ceo
and and and we don't fast
okay
you do vedica you have to clean your
house
and sometimes people make a mistake
what if you're it's not clean
technically you can't do badika's
comments yet it's not the right
but deca is i've already cleaned and i'm
going to search to see
if there's anything left but what if
your entire kitchen is coming it's like
thursday night this year
you don't do badika until you get it
clean and then you do they come
and i know and i know there have been
over the years that
people have done that their house has
not yet come pace of dick
and even though it says in halal you
should do produce hummus right after my
riff
that's if your house is already ready
for medical comments
but if you know it's not you could do
particular comments four in the morning
you understand the logic there's a logic
to this madness excuse the expression
it has cycle but the cast comments
to search for the leftover things
not for obvious bread and pizza i want
to eat pizza thursday night don't eat
pizza if you can't do because how much
when you have pedicu clean out your
pizza
finish your supper and if everything
else is ready fine
i'm not going to say that this applies
by the way too let's say you have to
still casher
if you still have to cash your your your
your your oven
and your sto whatever you know that's
different that's not
hummus the end you know lying around
so i'm not going to say that i i i won't
say i'm unless somebody
button do say but as far as i could see
you still should do badika's comments
at the beginning after mighty even if
you didn't cash her yet
your oven because that's not common
you know what i'm saying anyway let's
see what he says um
um okay
you know gather everything is
now let's say you want to eat the next
day comments it's fine he just said so
gather it all to one place
so then you know this is where it's at
and you know understand
what i was saying before is if things
are a balagan and still all over the
place
but if you have a designated place for a
certain amount of comments to eat for
tomorrow morning
that should not stop you from doing
ridiculous comments and time
um
and be careful just to stay to that
corner and that place to finish your
comments
shake shake off you know every time you
eat
it's probably best to do that on the
porch or outside so it's not in the
house
you put throughout the house ten pieces
of comments
uh the arizona explains that the 10
crowns of spiritual impurity
are represented by these 10 pieces
okay now i
want to make if someone doesn't have 10
pieces
you search without them the 10 pieces is
a minute and an important minute
and here you have a reason that the
arizona gives
but for example you know people that
travel they go to hotels and they're
traveling yesterday a lot of people are
traveling especially
here i don't know how it's not just road
but in america people are running all
over because they're
they're covered right you have to make
medica no
what are you going to carry 10 pieces
with you
so you make the deco without the 10
pieces the the ten pieces are not
um you know what
the name they they don't stop you from
doing the
you have the heel of doing the without
the ten pieces yes
[Music]
is unison if you don't find anything
you've done the act
the bracha is for the search it's not
abraham that's wrong
that's not right what you said okay
the the ten pieces is a minute
and the aliza gives us a nice reason
we're we're
we're we're removing ten aspects of
spiritual impurity
wonderful uh but
it it should no way be be a substitute
for the mitzvah of badika
i mean i i have this case with some of
my daughter and their friends they're
traveling with the seder you know and
and they're going to
to rent a room right no so
i suggest that they bring along a peter
too whatever but even
i'm saying even if not you make abraham
okay it should be
hard comets
is not wrapped in a piece of paper not
not in
silver paper because tomorrow you want
to burn it this little paper doesn't
burn
cauliflower masayas
uh why is that why should it be less
than the casios
right very good
look what he says moshe says because the
kiev of beer hummus
that's what jaakov said right there's a
mitzvah
bisou right get rid of it right
that's only the key of the rice is on
the kazias
so he says when you put them all
together you have the heels
whatever he says children why don't get
your children involved let them write
down
where they're put they should be put the
table
if you put them in the corners he says
it's better they uh
you don't have to hide them and hurry
because you'll forget
imagine a child you know your child your
grandchild
hides it somewhere in in a dock in a
corner in the forgets and you don't know
and that's it you have a piece of
helmets in your house
so it's best to put it in more of a
noticeable place he says in
in a noticeable corner okay it's just a
recommendation
but what we do we take the people come
put it in a plastic bag
a little bag and then we retire
with tape okay that's that's that's
definitely being mahmoud and it's good
good no because we don't want to do that
right let me just read number 25
oh now this is important because it's
actually
that before you do the mitzvah you know
before you do any mitzvah you're
supposed to wash your hands
in halacha before you do a mitzvah
you're supposed to have no
you die dying the key is here pure hands
from two men so it's brought down in
that
that you should wash your hands before
you do the predicate because you're
doing a mitzvah
without a project one two three four
five six whatever kanban
in the cafeteria she actually started
little mikko baby's comics okay
interesting
he says that you should the mourning of
dickhammers you should go
to the mikveh as a preparation for the
mitzvah but that's not brought to you
but he says
no it's you know you know here
this far them right look it the
coverheims that you should call the
dikvah
it doesn't say it in this in the altar
you know anyway okay uh sunday
uh there won't be sheer because we're
changing the clock here in america and
it's versus
so i just won't make be able to make it
back in time
so we'll continue with hashem on on
monday are
you happy with learning this i know it's
not uh hasidis technically
um yes very much so
okay but i i just feel um
it's good to go over you know and we
have to be making what it says
so avi i i i i hope uh you're following
and
and and appreciating it and the thing is
that even if you're eating with someone
else that'll say they're
you know it's good to know these things
you know what i'm saying you
you go if you're eating someone else and
again always to be careful not to
embarrass anybody even though they do
something wrong
i'll end with a story because since i
under the story
i think it was 1945 and rabbi dr nissa
mendel
the secretary of the frederick told the
story and he was a very honest man
so i believe this i believe the story
he said it was a 45 one of the years in
the 40s at the fleet of canada
they're upstairs in 770 in his apartment
so there were
people that see them that ate you know
group of them
someone came and he wasn't particular
about what uh
and he wedded his matzo
i don't know who he was how it was when
it was but
and and and another husted
started to say no no
and and the frida kadabra like picked up
a set and you're like
like what's going on here he you know
and he said you know it's true
wedding the matzah it's matashruya
and the philip said
is a meaning an important meaning
that we and others keep but there are
others that don't keep much australia
embarrassing the jew is an aveda
it's such an important what there is
at the riser it's a
it's such an important story especially
when it comes to the say that things get
sometimes
intense you know especially those people
that are like oh
you know we have to get it all right and
they get all you know they want to they
want to get every detail right
color covered but don't do it on your
wife's expense
and your kids expense and and and and
your guest expense
and it's hard sometimes because you know
the pressure
and the timing and we gotta begin
and the clock's moving you know it's
like
and meanwhile you can embarrass someone
so it's it's very important to
you know just let things ride don't
freak out and i'm talking to myself you
know
you know because you know i'm very
particular and especially at chabad
house and i had
public seders you know the people didn't
keep sharia
no one's keeping that they went there
and i left them because that's that's
the way you know i'm saying
or with the bags with eating you know
whatever whatever i'm just saying they
have to really
calm be calm and and yeah in a nice way
in a private way you know
okay kevin have a good shabbos a good
aerial
should have nisi nissen miracles and
we'll learn together mr shem on monday
zai doesn't
everyone take care bye-bye
