Okay,
tonight's sh is
and um we're about to start. So the shim
had been divided into two separate shim.
One I would I prefer to call one sur and
the second one
as in getting rid of the all the stuff
related to getting rid of all the
negative and then the second we'll be
having with on Thursday will be about
doing good. I will just mention tonight
today was the 27th of Ad which as we all
know the Reb suffered a stroke twice on
this day and it's a day that allows us
to think about the sur and leaving Gulus
and doing good and getting closer to Gah
and start experiencing Gah especially
nowadays when we see all these nowadays
the tell us that's the coming of Mashiah
very very soon and we get right into it
Kazal tell us that from Puran onwards
We're supposed to start teaching.
We're supposed to start teaching of
made a rule that
in the time when there was a mdash
that the danim should teach publicly 30
days before every about that in the case
of pes from because in people had to
bring carbonus associated with the yv.
Anybody who lived near had to bring a
carbon three different carbanas a carbon
for visiting the B mikdash a carbon in
two other carban
and there's all kind of laws associated
with a carban the things that blemishes
that invalidate a carbon other things
that invalidate a carbon so there was a
rule that you should teach all about yum
to 30 days before that will remind
people to prepare their animals make
sure they have kosher animals and 30
days before people will will have enough
time now this is the today as well we're
supposed to learned the hal of y 30 days
before that we should be expert in the
hal and know and that which we're
supposed to do. So what we're doing
right now is indeed that of learning 30
days before Yam all about the YT and
there's many other things that we do
within 30 days before PES to make sure
that we're in the frame of P in case we
still didn't realize that PES is hitting
us. Anything that you do within these 30
days you have to be careful. You do it
in such a way that shouldn't be attached
to it which will make it much more
difficult when it comes right before
PES. One of the things that is
associated with prep is there was a
there's an established meaning in all
communities that in every community is a
tax on the people in the city. They
should supply all people in the city
with with wheat for matsus or all other
needs of pes. Today's day and age it's
not wheat anymore. None of us is taking
wheat and grinding and making mats. We
usually buy readymade matsus. But the
idea is to supply the needs of y for
anybody that needs the needs of y.
Whether it's matis, whether it's needs
of y in general, which is clothing for
y, food of y. And that's an important
thing called otherwise known as
in order for us to to experience our
freedom. The proper way for us to
experience freedom is when we know that
someone else has what they need to have.
This applies to men. It applies to
women. Women also have the mitzvah.
Particularly women have the mitzvah of
saddaka. There's a general discussion
about women giving sodaka when the money
belongs to the husband. But in America,
it's a very common thing in our society
in general. It's a common thing that
husbands give the wives big amounts of
money. They don't particularly care. Um,
a lot of in a lot of ways today's day
and age, more women give than men giving
because it applies to men and women
equally. Now, people often ask the
question if this fund
could be given for me, can you use your
meer money for that? So, that would
depend really is this an absolute
obligation? Is it a tax? If it's a tax
on the community then you can't use for
that or is it sedaka
you want it's a good thing to just to
give extra saddaka
uses both terms tax and sodaka. So
practically speaking nowadays the
community is not taxing anyone. We don't
have community which forces people and
dictates that you must give my and if
it's a regular form of and you would be
able to use my money. There are those
that are stringent and say you shouldn't
use msa money but if you follow the
strict rule there's no reason you
shouldn't be able to use msa money still
it's best to give a minimum amount for
the from your own money you want to have
the of doing if you're taking your money
there's no extra that are attached to
you you took money which is already set
aside for and now you're channeling it
into aim fund into fund so you didn't
really acrue any extra by taking from
your own money which is not micer Then
you achieved a tremendous. So take a bid
from your money and then the rest you
want to give more from your ma money.
One of the other things that we start
from 30 days before is that we're
careful. It is our meaning to be careful
not to eat matzah
you only now eat matzah from pes. Some
people start from and our customer is
from Purim the general customers that
even if the matzah is technically people
are careful about but in a matzah which
is not even fit for eating on pes not
because of just because the way it's
made it's egg matzah it's cooked matzah
they can't be mim the mitzvah of matzah
there's no meaning to be careful with
that and that you can have 30 days
before pes freely
one of the things that the reb
encouraged very much perhaps you can say
is the first myth that made is to be to
have the public have the of the
specifically
communal people that he has a lot of
associates to arrange that their
associates should have at least for this
round handbaked matzah matzah
in places where they make public dur
like in hotels then arrange it people
should have handmade matzah it's not
enough that we have handmade mata We
want to accommodate others. The Reb used
the expression and this is printed on is
that if you start working not having
matzah then eventually all nonwmir
matzah bakeries will close down because
everybody will start using that's a very
strong language that he used. Now we try
they should have at least a kazay of
handmade matzah or all the kazum at
least the middle mat if not all three
matas
for both or for the whole entire p. So
it depends what you can accomplish but
at least at least get them to have of
the mitzvah of mat should be handmade
matzah people that are making public
should try to work on making two public
because it's places where they arranged
only one s because they don't have
enough money whatever the reason is so
it's important to make sure we have two
stam and arrange people should have
handmade mat encourage this mitzvah of
distributing handmade matzah very very
strongly n is a month of gazal tell us
we were redeemed in n And we're going to
be redeemed as well. Niss generally the
whole entire month in says is treated
like a yumpt cuz every other day there's
something special about throughout the
month of since most of the month is has
special yumptive attributes to it. We
treat the entire month as if it's and
that's why we don't say etc etc. The
writes on the
says the
entire month is like every day in this
month is like
the whole entire month is called is the
time of our freedom. It's called
the month of redemption. It's not just
it's the entire month. And there was an
an occasion that asked that we should
try to make every single day of not sure
how that works very well with
because it's a every day of is a
special. So just we should appreciate a
special
coming across and as mentioned earlier
because this is a very special holy
month every day of this month we don't
say we don't say
before we don't say
and it is our custom as well that
whenever we don't say we don't say
in ding and we don't say
so on the instituted that if you don't
say as part of ding then after ding Not
as part of the structure of but the
saying to add the right before you say
after because it's of also the month of
Niss you shouldn't be fasting
there no fast throughout the month of
with the exception of
the firstborn fast of
on the day of their even if the is
there's an exception rule they fast
otherwise there's no fast in the month
of
the custom is that people don't go to a
to go visit somebody who has a yard site
the custom is they goes
they go to the if they didn't go if they
didn't goes
and they have a yard site so this it's
okay to go is not against but we're
careful not to say those extra that we
say throughout the year which is like we
don't say those extra prayers when
you're going to a cavern of that's very
very different you're going to a cadic
we're not dinging for the saddic we're
dabbing for the living people that the
saddics should protect the living
people. He should be and that's
perfectly fine to go and that's the
custom to go as well.
Of course people would go to the oil and
fromwards
it's brought down there's a custom that
we say every day a section in the parish
of the every single day of from the 1 of
Niss to the 12th of Niss there was a
particular the leader of each tribe the
ni brought a sacrifice and every day we
read the section printed in the s from
of that ni on the 13th day after the
first 12 days pass the 13th day of n is
section called
we read until the very very end and then
because there's 12 tribes and there's
the tribe the shies that corresponds to
shi and after we say that section and
the we also say the is printed in the
sid and that we say that if we belong to
a particular tribe then the sacrifice
the of that tribe should should bring
down special special inspiration and
encouragement for me for my children my
grandchildren and so on so forth that is
said by anyone regard childhood which
tribe you belong to even if you're a k
and a ley you know you belong to the shy
you still say that as well women say it
even converts say the even though they
they don't belong to a particular tribe
they're converts that doesn't make a
difference everybody says it if you
forgot to say the ni there's often
people that send that reminder of
don't forget the nasi which also means
it's not what the there's a hidden
meaning don't forget the nasi don't
forget that we have a ni we have a
But anyhow, if you forgot to say the
nasi, so you could still make it up at
night until the break of dawn, you could
say the you could even say the as well.
If however you forgot to say it and it's
not the next day, you could say the next
day, but you can't say the anymore cuz
it's not the same. That's perfectly
fine. The is that this is the carbon of
today. You studing yesterday's so the
doesn't make any more sense. The
encouraged that we should speak
strengthen this custom of saying the we
should it's very precious and it it's
not written in the Torah but anything
which was not in the Torah is from the
rabbis
has in a way is even more precious. So
we should strengthen this mic. It's a
very unique. There's no like this found
anywhere else in the sid that all the
special holy sparks of this tribe
everything should have an effect on me
and all my children for all future
generations. That's a very powerful
thing. And since tell us that whenever
you learn about a carbon it's as if you
brought that carbon you brought that
sacrifice. So from onwards every time
we're saying the we are actually
bringing that sacrifice because when you
learn about as if it's as if you did it.
Another thing that happens on the month
of Nissan is in the Gmorra it says if
somebody goes in the month of Nissan and
he sees trees that are blossoming he
make a special blessing. Some people
argue that the month of Niss is not
literal. The Reb insinuates that the Reb
writes that insinuates that the month of
Niss is literal. It means specifically
you can do before you shouldn't be doing
and certainly according to Kabala it's
the case that it's specifically. So if
you're seeing trees or even a tree which
was planted in a flower pot and it's
blossoming, there's a special that we
make thanking Hashem that Hashem created
a world which is nothing missing and it
has nice people and nice beautiful trees
for us to enjoy. It's a printed in the
in the section of the in the it's not
printed in the regular section of the is
they make the first time you see fruit
blossoming that year. Once you saw once
fruit blossoming you don't make a bra
again. If you saw once a tree like that
blossoming and now you're seeing and you
didn't make do not make the second time
with Hashem's name, you could say it
without Hashem's name. This is only if
it's a tree that produces fruit, not a
non-bearing fruit tree. You could say it
on a tree that bears fruit even though
the fruit is not edible. And we say it
before the fruit is growing when it
starts blossoming. Some people in
particular to have two trees. That's you
don't need that. The applies for men,
applies for women.
You should not make there are those that
say we
not to make not to make this on a tree
which was still within the years of
which is the first three years of the
tree when the fruit are forbidden. If
you don't know it's fine or a tree which
is which is combined when you craft
together two types of fruit. There's no
problem making this on shabasive
according to most that's perfectly fine.
If you did not make the braha and the
the the
flowers start falling off and now the
fruit start growing the alb says you
should make it without hashem's name.
Now it's a question if you can still
make the so you say without hashem's
name. If however there's still some
flowers
there's fruit but there's also still
some of the flowers some of the bud then
it's then you could say with hashem's
name as well. So that's in terms of the
special.
Let's move on. And one of the things
that we do in the month of Nissan, we
prepare for the Reb's birthday
way before Nissan comes Reb's birthday,
it's a time to think about is good
resolutions for this very auspicious
day. In addition to the preparation for
PES, the Reb asked in the past that if
people want to give him gifts, they
should give them spiritual gifts like
learning extra to and so on. There's a
lot of purchases that we need to do for
Pes. We have to make sure we have
matzah. We have to make sure we have
wine. There's a preference to use red
wine specifically on Pesak
unless the white wine is more favorable
is a better wine
during the year. There's a question if
red wine is preferred but pes there's an
advantage in red wine because of the
color associated with with the makum
with the
because of that we came out of that's so
time to purchase wine
covers it is our custom we use a kdish
we use specifically one which does not
have a stem some people are not
particular about that but customs the
general custom among an is not to use a
becker Kid with a stem.
The Reb encouraged we should buy for PE
every child they should have their own
Hagada preferably Hagada for kids with
pictures pictures pictures of the
various different events about the
story.
So we'll make the much more accessible
and associated with for the children.
Children should write their belongs to
Hashem and then put their name. We
should buy for the children a new for
Yam. The is supposed to buy for children
on Yam. You're supposed to give them
special sweets, delicacies, cloism in
those days that was roasted wheat and
nuts. So certainly if you give them
mundane matters to make them happy, you
certainly should give them holy matters
to make them happy like a nice beautiful
siddther.
Pes requires a lot of preparation
and even those that have the custom that
they have a special pes
kitchen, they also have to go through a
lot of preparations. The Reb writes this
and he mentions that he didn't see the
hour should have a special pes kitchen,
a pes apartment. But either way,
everybody has a lot of preparations, a
lot of work that has to be done. And
we're going to try to go through various
different things. One of the things that
we have to take into account is things
that we'll we might forget. So for
example, some people get regular Amazon
packages and it could be food and food.
They get regular food Amazon packages of
food which could be a question of so
you're supposed to make sure if you have
a fixed stand of delivery before pes
cancel your delivery that you shouldn't
have delivered to your own p which
belongs to you
there's a
we supposed to be happy for all eight
days of pes we're supposed to be happy a
person his wife his children and his
entire family
every
now's one way how men become happy
says with wine with children having
their sweets for them. But for women, it
says you're supposed to buy them
clothing and jewelry as according to
your level of how much you can afford.
So that's a mitzvah for men. It's a
mitzvah to make sure that the women are
happy and buy them clothing and jewelry.
That's an important mitzvah in addition
to all the other pes expenses is equally
important if not more important.
There are many that go on PES.
The customs that we these associate with
with the
start from when
some in some cases people are lenient on
PES. In some case delina when you're
cooking food before pes still but
generally these these all these customs
start from pes on the time you can't eat
and they go all the way until the last
day of pes with the exception of gra wet
matzah which custom is not to be
particular about on the last day of pes
and these c most of these customs apply
when you're cooking before y the general
meaning is to keep all these customs
talking about stringencies writes that
if a person is careful even from a mash
and he goes out of his way he can't have
even a tight a tiny bit of mash the
person that goes out of his way to be
careful. Hashem will promises him that
he will not sin throughout the entire
year. What does that mean? That means
that accidentally no sin will happen to
him. Of course, a person could choose to
do the wrong thing. But if a person does
this special,
goes out of his way to be careful not to
have a mash, Hashem will not will
arrange that he shouldn't have
accidental sins. When I say that means
anything that's visible. If it's not
visible that's not called
if a person
keeps pes properly keeps all these that
that's that
will help them throughout the entire
year and everything that he does. One of
the reasons that pes has more than other
things because the very first mitzvah
that we got and we accept this mitzah
out of love and we're very particular
about it. So the way the and supposed to
be done is it's supposed to be done out
of love not as a stressful thing and the
more you're particular about it the
person extends himself to be particular
extends his life as well
in the name which should be stringent
with all the stringencies honestly means
doesn't have a source not made up stuff
and we shouldn't make fun of any of any
custom a lot everybody has their own way
has their family customs so we shouldn't
make fun but you have to be careful
sometimes a could be what we
a stringency that leads to a leniency.
So you need to know what's secondary,
what's more important and sometimes you
try to take on extra stringency which is
not required but that leads to something
else that's negative. So you need to
think about anything they take on if is
it suitable for you is it suitable for
this place for this time it has to be
suitable according to the environment
once said
very arringencies. So there it's it's
when it's done has to be done properly
and taking into account that says you
should never say how
it's too difficult for me in the we have
four sons one of the sons is the Russia
the wicked son and the wicked son says
this is so difficult why do we need to
have this father so when we say how
difficult is pes that's that's that's
basically saying the same thing as the
Russians the wicked son now in it's
brought a lot of people not particular
about
And one of the ways to defend the fact
that a lot of people say oh it's too
hard because the wicked son when he says
it's too difficult he means he's talking
about the carbon pes it's a bother to
bring the carbon pes sacrifice now is a
mitz in the nowadays people are saying
about all these extra all these extra
stringencies so therefore that's not
forbidden oh but not forbidden is one
thing but not being in the spirit of the
law is another thing altogether. The
wrote a letter to his wife to the and he
wrote her I'm asking you
don't overwork yourself
with
you have be careful with your health and
will protect you and everything. So when
we do just make sure that we don't
overdo it.
So we're going to go through some of
those. There's something called matzah
ash wet matzah. Strictly speaking, if
you have a dough that's kneaded with
fruit juice and has zero water in it and
it's not according to the according to
the strict the custom is that we are
stringent and we don't have dough made
with fruit juice because there might be
a tiny bit of water and if there's a
tiny bit of water it's realt and it gets
even faster than dough with water and if
we don't eat that in pes and that mini
is not let changed unless we're talking
about an old person or sick person that
needs to have matzah
a dough with juice wet matzah egg matzah
for example so ashkanazm we don't even
give a hash on something like that
amongst ashkanas is absolutely true for
ashkanazm except like I said for someone
who was sick who needs it machine matzah
so writes in a letter that the great
rabbis the god-fearing rabbis in the
previous generation forbade machine
matzah they did not want some of them
didn't want to reveal their reasons
because they were afraid they're going
to say the reason people will start
arguing with their reasons but they is
absolutely strong about it that is
forbidden. Some of them even wrote that
it's absolute. So how could we
go against their words I am not in
agreement with this absolutely that
writes we should not come up with new
things. We should go follow the path
that our ancestors did and not use
machine matzah. Now I have to mention
that machine then didn't use red
electricity the way we use it today. Now
there's everything's electric just press
a button. In some ways it's much worse.
Now we don't say it's gar but the does
mention there were those that said that
it was gar therefore we have to be very
careful. The reb was asked should we
give mata to kids and theb's response
was why mata
am faith you have to work from when
you're a young child. It says that a
child could only say the word father
when he tastes grain when he's the age
he knows how to eat bread or grain that
he could say the word father. Soidus
tells us that in order to announce
father our father in heaven about Hashem
once we taste green once we have matzah
then we could we start recognizing our
father hashem
so the reb says that wasn't referring to
machine matzah that was referring to the
real authentic original matzah now when
it comes to other other sprendencies
even with regard to gibra it's not so
serious that if kids have that but
machine
that not from a point of view we even
try and make sure kids don't have gats
we'll talk about gs in a moment but
machine mat we don't give to kids and
part of the reb's mat campaign was to
give make sure that people have handmade
matzah at least if they're not having
for the whole at least for the sed for
the mitzvah of matzah to have handmade
matzah kitus
means things that are not made out of
the five types the grain. You could make
a a food out of it, rice, lentils,
millet, and it wouldn't become. There
are those that say it's a problem, but
strictly speaking, it wouldn't be in
Ashkanaz, which we are all ashkanazm.
custom to be serious about this and
accepted that we can't have it on PES
now let it be changed the expression
used that if somebody violates the
prohibition against
he's deserving of
the death penalty and he's violating a
rule that's been accepted by the rabbis
considered a binding rule so much so
that even if
his and with his and all is they will
not be able to take off the ofcept by
cloudy solidic rights. Even in times of
desperate situations, people don't have
what to eat, they should not cook knits
on PES. What are knits? Rice, peas,
peanuts, millet, chickpeas, sunflower
seeds, mustard, buckwheat, poppy seeds,
beans, lentil, soy, sesame, corn, and
many other grains. Kinoa is there are
certain agencies that give a fora and
there's a lot of pressure because the
national agencies one of them gives the
other one has to give a although many
many leading raim have proven strongly
conclusively kinwa is a new food that
wasn't used that much or we don't know
much about it from previous generations
and therefore some wanted to argue that
it's not kitus it's very hard to accept
that argument so you will find in the
stores kinoa with the pes it should not
be used
kitus oil is also a problem. That would
mean peanut oil, sunflower oil, rape
seed, canola, sesame, soybean. These are
all a problem.
Now,
oil that's not made from kidneys is not
really a problem. Especially a pes made
oil. Some people have a they don't use
any oil and pes has a there's an opinion
like that that you shouldn't use any
oil, just chicken fat. If somebody has
that family custom, that's fine. That's
because of this ava
other oils shouldn't be used because
people might use kidney oil but that's
not the
patent seed oil
some are stringent to consider that
kitus strictly speaking cotton seed oil
is not kidneys but you will see certain
projects products for peso that are made
with cotton seed oil and it will say in
for those that use cotton seed oil and
pesa because there are those that want
to argue that cottonseed oil is kidney
well that's not not not mainstream
the problem with kidneys is only eating
You allow to enjoy have benefit from
kidneys. You're allowed to have it in
your house. And for somebody who's sick
or for a child that needs it, you're
allowed to cook knits. You need to check
the kidneys very very well. Sometimes it
has grains mixed into it. You should
have separate designated dishes for the
kidneys.
Ideally, if you need to cook kidneys,
you should do it in fruit juice, not in
water. Better to use other kidneys.
They're using rice, mil and buckweed
that are more severe forms. But there
are some baby formula which is kidneys.
And if a baby needs it, that you should
give them the kidneys. But use separate
dishes for that. not mix it with
anything else.
Some places it was a custom on PES and
it's brought down and many places they
didn't eat dry fruit on pes they didn't
eat salt um salty food they didn't need
cloves they didn't have honey they
didn't have sugar all these foods that a
lot of places particular if you know for
a fact has no not talking about kittens
but these foods I just mentioned you
don't have to be strict some took on the
idea even with they're not going to use
it if
my grandparents didn't have it in Russia
as the expression goes in Europe then
I'm not going to have it either and and
this there's room for such an argument
Many people have the custom that they
have sugar on pes but they cook it
before pesk the idea of cooking before
pesk is that it turns into a wet mixture
and a wet mixture according to many
opinions if there's potentially it
becomes nullified before pes could be
nullified on pes not now if something
becomes nullified before pes it could be
reawaken on pes possibly but if it's wet
if it's a liquid then it doesn't
according to many opinions it doesn't
get reawaken on pes so if there was
became all nullified didn't have sugar
at all on PE but some people have sugar
and they cook the boil the sugar first
another is wet matzah it is the custom
among and some nonidim as well it's not
unique to kabad to not to have wet
matzah except for the last day of p when
we're particular to make sure that our
mat is wet so we cover our matas on the
table the reason the mat is always
covered is in case water falls on it or
we don't want the mata to fall into
water or onto soup if you have a kali a
dish that hadn't wet matzah we don't use
them until Next year whenever you're
pouring water or liqu which has water
into a cup or plate you make sure
there's no matzah and when we wash
normally during the year we move our
hands over our lips with the water to
wipe our lips we don't do that pes until
the last day children were particular
also about wet matzah though like I said
it's not as serious as machine matzah
now writes
that the issue of wet matzah is only
with water we're not so particular not
to make matzah wet in fruit juice. So we
don't make egg matzah. We don't make do
the dough of the matzah and mix in
that's called matzah that we can't have
in peskinazm. But if you have a baked
matzah then now we're particular not to
put it on water. Water. Yeah. But fruit
juice is fine. Fruit that means fruit
juice that has no water in it. If you're
sure that this fruit juice that you have
is no water. So some people would want
to put avocado in their mat. Technically
that wouldn't be a problem. that ever
writes
it's obvious you don't have to be
stringent at all but that would be you
have to be careful that the water no
water got on the avocado no water got on
the knife ideally use a plastic knife
that you're going to avocado some people
are particular and they have good reason
to be particular there's reasons to be
particular but there's you don't have to
was not particular about it not to be
particular and so on spices in the karis
there's officially in five ingredients
brought down apples, pears, nuts, ginger
and cinnamon and that's brought down in
kabala as well. The reb writes that is
our custom for many years already that
we don't use ginger and cinnamon in the
karesas because of concern oft what's
the concern concern about spices. Now it
could be this doesn't apply when you're
making your own ginger and have it
growing in your backyard but
commercialized stuff generally are not
used vodka whiskey those things no
usually they're anyhow but you could
have a vodka which is made
against it this and we don't have that
on they say that the once said
the reason not to have
these beverages on pes because you're
not supposed to be drinking
brain alcohol when you're taking
medicine desserts is a food of healing
so if we're taking medicine we shouldn't
be drinking drink drinking anyhow that's
a verb in the name of the mitch maggot
once walked into the sedan of the bakim
to the to the bakim's meal and he saw
them eating radish on pes and he said
don't you know that it's a forb to eat
radish on pes and he didn't give a
reason so there's a custom that in our
circles we don't eat radish on pes and
this is a custom brought down in certain
p as well they also bring a custom about
garlic not to use in many kabat
communities and families there was a
custom not to use garlic and pes talking
about still in Russia
Pum bring such a custom. They say
there's no reason for this custom. But
if people have such a meaning, you
shouldn't be lenient about it and not
use garlic and pes similar to radish.
Peeling. The custom is not to eat fruit
and vegetables unless they're peeled
first.
So there are those that are lenient. If
you're cooking before pes, a lot of
people are leaning not to peel. But
certainly on pes, everything is peeled
first. Especially nowadays when they put
a lot of sprays on pesticides on these
fruits and vegetables. So there's even
more reason that they should be peeled.
Eggs. There's a custom not to use on pes
a pot in which eggs you can't peel if
you're cooking the eggs. So we cook them
with their peels, but we don't use that
pot for anything else. They have the
woman have their own separate set pot
for eggs. It is not our custom to rinse
the eggs before pes.
You have to make sure before pes there's
no dirt on it. Make sure look at the egg
at the egg um at the cartons to make
sure there's no dirt or on it.
If there's a concern of KTS, then of
course you should wash it off with cold
water before you cook it. Some people
say when you wash over the eggs, you're
getting the germs to go into the eggs
and therefore only wash it right before
you're using it. Just pointing that out.
There is a custom brought down in not to
buy stuff on PES from a non-Jewish store
because there's crumbs while they eat
which could go if you're buying oil or
honey stuff that are not dig but the
crumbs could go into it. The was needed
to buy for med medical purposes. cuz he
had to buy almonds and he was careful
that should be bought dka before pes and
in a store which doesn't sell any
so putting it out there a lot of people
have this custom they buy everything
before pes some people have the custom
they cook everything before pes and the
idea behind it is again the idea of
before pes it's easier for things to be
nullified so if there was it becomes
nullified
eating in other people's houses said
that pes you don't offer anybody else to
eat or drink if they want to take
themselves is fine. You give them a
possibility to take, but you don't make
life difficult for people be because
they have they can take whatever they
want. So a lot of people actually don't
eat in other people's houses cuz
everybody has different and
so it's hard you go to someone else's
house. You don't know what the standards
are. Generally pes it's a good idea to
keep the
is better to be at home writes that
wrote to people that wanted to travel
away for pes generally people are home
with their family besides for the reason
of it's very hard to be so particular
about the way you want when you're in
someone else's house but is time when
you're with family it's a special it's
not a time to travel today's age became
a very common thing but I'm just quoting
what it says in the sources it's part of
that idea not eating other people's
houses There is a custom that people do
not use commercial products partic as
much as possible. When I say much as
possible, things that are necessary and
there's no other choice without it.
Simple things, not complicated things.
You can make it yourself. It was made
before Pesk has a proper so everybody
defies what's considered the bare
minimum. But the bare minimum people
don't use unless it's the bare minimum
especially people that use commercial
stuff except spices. can talk about the
lot of them talk about it even stuff
with a could be a problem before they
are but you know there's standards among
there's often they could say a beautiful
nice letter there
and I've seen kash even on things
absolute so just this is mentioned in
pin but we've seen it as well
bring that on pes we don't put in the
table things that are not you never know
have in it we cover also brought And a
person will cover any shelves. Anything
that you don't want to put things
directly down on a table, on a shelf, on
a counter, everything is covered. This
is nothing to do with the fact that it
was useful for you. Never know what's
there. When you want to take water on
PES,
so talk about
wells and they this talk about the fact
that you would filter the water when you
take it out of the well, it should get
only clean water. But because of that we
also put filters. We make sure that the
water in the sink is filled besides for
the issue of bugs which is a whole year
issue. I'm talking specifically now in
New York. I'm talking specifically now a
a pes issue. So we don't have to worry
there. But in sometimes we actually know
that in the reservoir they actually has
for sure real scrums. So then you
absolutely required to make sure that
the water is filtered.
The freed writes that before pes when
they would open up their wine bottles
they would make sure that the bottle
opener doesn't touch the wine again
talking about it's mentioned by the
place mostly talk about if something
falls in a place where there could be we
don't eat it on pes even if it was kash
that place strictly speaking the place
was kasha big deal so the way that
custom is kept today is that anything
that falls on the floor food or dishes
that fall on the floor we don't use it
until the following year It's mentioned
as well that the word bread should not
be mentioned on pes
spoke about the word. So the word
shouldn't be mentioned on p these are a
range of different I didn't mention all
of them some of the common stringencies
about pes one of the ways to get rid of
our is selling
now some people have this thing they
think that the selling of the supposed
to happen right before pes that is not
correct you could start selling as early
as possible the offices usually
openishness and onwards not before just
for practical reasons but it's better to
come earlier it makes no difference if
you locked up your stuff or didn't lock
up your stuff that you
sell in go to the and authorize the
sale. You're not actually selling them.
You're going to the and authorizing him
to sell it on there because that could
be done earlier. Let me explain more
what comes is about. There's a lot of
mistakes and misconceptions. The Torah
says that we can have in our possession
on PES and on PE already we're
absolutely obligated to get rid of ours.
If we have in our possession and they
stay in our possession on PES, then you
can have benefit from it after PES. It
doesn't help the fact that that was
closed and locked up. So locking up
helmets is not what you're supposed to
do. You not want to have it in your
possession. But if there's a large
amount of and you don't want to lose it.
So the solution is you could just sell
it and it's not yours. You don't only
sell it. You actually rent out the area
the area where the is kept that closet
whatever it is is being rented out to a
guy. Now the was sold to a guy and
rented out the can stay in your house
because it's actually not in your house.
It's in the guy's possession. You will
not violate the is of you shouldn't have
comets in your possession cuz it belongs
to a guy and it's in a guy's property
right now cuz it was rented out as well.
There are many rules how to sell. So we
usually get that knows how to do this
and we make our agent we have an
authorization form. We authorize him
that he should sell it for us with all
if because if it wasn't sold properly
you are the person owning the is
not just actually as if he had in his
property on which is a quite a serious
thing
wrote a bunch of rules about how the
sale should take place including among
that that has to have the go has to come
with a guarantor called the n of kablin
not everybody sells according to the
rules of alter that's important for us
that's extremely important important to
want to make sure not to be overt
after that was sold not using is
perfectly fine you're allowed to use it
but I'm the
pes has passed and someone had he didn't
sell like once you have the after pes
but before pes your should be careful to
have it sold properly
now thet that's being sold which is
staying in your house which is
technically that area is the go property
it has to be locked up and and and you
need to make a sign a mark to know that
that's sold. First of all, we need to
know what's included in the sale. So the
only the places that are marked are
included in the sale. Secondly, you want
to make sure you don't come to that
place by mistake and pes and go into
that area. A place in your house which
has g proper realts needs to have a mita
a fence a wall a separation of tent
in front of the if it's in a closet with
doors just close the door and make a
mark on the door. This is a proper sale.
This is not a joke. We sell even realts.
Some people don't sell real kts in
that's not an issue. It's 100% sale. So
you could sell real ktam sold real kts
too. And the reason we're selling it, we
could technically just say and nullify
our say everything is null and void. But
said it's not enough just to nullify
your need to get rid of it. So we don't
want to if we don't want to get rid of
it. So we could sell it. But when we're
selling it, then what we're saying
really is that we're not nullifying it
because nullifying means you're not
planning to get it back. The selling,
you're planning to get back after PES.
So it actually never became null and v
and therefore if the sale wasn't done
properly, it's a problem that was in
your possession on PES.
Now you want to sell the entire house
and not dots,
you can do that. You can sell
everything, but you should really leave
one area that's not being sold. So you
should be able to have the mitzvah of
KTS on the night of the 14th of N. If
you're going to be leaving your house
before the night of so you could do in
the place you're going to be getting to.
So either you do it in your if you're
going to be in your house the night of
so you can leave one area that you're
not selling. That's fine. If you're not
going to be in your house, you already
left. So you'll do where you are. If
you're staying in other people's houses,
if you have your own there, you could do
your own.
He could do for you, but you could do it
yourself also. But if you don't have
your own there, there's no mitzvah. If
you want to have the mitzvah, go bring
your own there. Some people have this
thing. They make a they try to buy off
the room where they're staying. But
either way, even if you do that, you
still should be the from the person who
you're staying by and listen to his.
There are cases whereas won't help you.
For example, you have a car. You could
sell the car. It's fine. But you can't
just say, "I have a hard time cleaning
my car. So, let me just sell the entire
car." And then you're going to go drive
in the car as well. That you can't do.
Also, if you have real 100 g proper and
you can't make a separation, a 10
separation, you can't sell it. You have
to get rid of it. If you have crumbs and
you don't want to clean your house and
you just want to sell, the selling works
because you're selling real crumbs. If
you're only selling crumbs, that's a
problem.
If somebody has pets that need to be fed
and pes, that's not simple. You can't
just rely on the crumbs. You need to
talk to about this. If there's other
members of the family have their own,
they need to do their own sale. You
can't just rely someone else. Every
person has their own. And another very
important thing, if you're traveling a
pes to a place where pes comes in
earlier, so there's man on pes at the
time you can't have earlier and you're
selling it. For example, somebody is
traveling territory to Europe and he's
selling it over here in America. So the
in America is selling it out of pes in
America but it's already in you tell
about this some myself included do an
early sale especially for those people
needs to be informed though that you set
aside should not be sold should be
destroyed.
Also, some people are strict
not to sell on one shelf in the closet
or one shelf in the fridge and use the
rest of the shelves. There's that should
not be done. It's better not to do that.
Medicines on Pes some people need to
take medicines.
You can't just decide I'm not going to
be taking it because it's you need to
get a from that you cannot take your
medicine. It's not so simple not to take
medicine. And any questions you have
about medications, all those questions
should be done be way before. Don't push
off to the last minute where you might
not be able to get hold of the mitzvah
of doesn't have to start the night of
the night of the 14th of it could be st
done earlier as long as done by night to
the light of a candle. But whenever
you're doing it earlier, you do not make
and you have to be careful you don't
bring into that room again. So if you
want to start earlier that's a great
idea and leave one room that you will
do. So he should have the mitzvah of the
night of the 14th. Practical example.
Somebody's going to be going to work on
Yam. Now he doesn't want to. Therefore,
his workplace is not selling. He's going
there on Yam. He's going to be using it.
So you don't have to go slept to your
workplace in Manhattan the night of you
can search for it earlier.
Just make sure that after you do, you
won't bring in there. When people clean
a room and they want to put in P.
So the ideally after you clean it dot
take a candle or electric um flashlight
without before you put in your P stuff
check it for don't rely you're going to
check it later the night of when you
move a fridge or you move a closet
you're going to push it back dots now
it's actually a problem if it's within
30 days before pes said often people
want to make a a room in the house pes
so later they forget to do there and if
they do they do it they don't really do
it properly it's already things there.
There's fruits, there's vegetables, a
bunch of things there. They're not going
to be doing it properly. So, better to
do it before when you want to make this
room to do is the night before without a
there's a lot of cleaning
going on and I want to we're going to
get to that soon about the cleaning
before Pes I want to go through a few
other things. First theb was sent to us
general
pastoral letters before pes those are
powerful letters over the years many
many letters sometimes two or three
before pes again for so and it's a good
idea to study those
they asked them to be translated in
English and in Hebrew the sent telegrams
for p those it's worthwhile to learn
them there special letters that are
associated the same calendar system of
this year PE starts on a Thursday. The
letters for that calendar system. These
are letters that generally talk about
PES. I'm putting that out there. People
should recommend to learn that. One of
the things that we do before PE is
cashing.
I'm not going to go through all the
cash. It's a bit lengthy and there's a
lot of about writes so many different
details and not everybody knows them.
You should get someone to only who knows
the of says nowadays everybody knows
cashes. They don't even know what
they're doing. So, we actually put
together, you could go on the website
aster.com, there's a document called
cashering made simple for every single
type of dish, how to cash it, and
there's a number. There's six systems of
cashing. One, two, three. You look at
the right number and it matches up. So,
you could look there. If you have any
further questions, you could submit it
on the website as well. You don't have
to cash a brand new dishes. Some people
have such a, but you don't have to cash
a brand new dishes. Generally the custom
is that people capture their tables or
their counters and they cover them. And
people often ask why am I make myself
crazy both curing and covering. So
there's a reason for this custom. First
of all, some people are concerned that
it wasn't really cleaned properly and
there might be a tiny bit of comets
there. Some comets might have remained
there. So there they have it covered.
They're not going to put food under it
if they don't cover it. Some materials
not everybody agrees could be casured.
There might be the the there's glue in
it which might not be casual etc. Some
areas might need a higher level of
casuring blowtorrching etc. But blow
torching might destroy it.
Cashing is supposed to be done in a pot
in a cleation. When you're pouring onto
a counter then it's already a second
choice solution. That's not the
preferred way to do it. If people would
rather cover it also the reason why
people cover it because in general is
not ideal. It's a ideally you should get
new stuff on PE. It's mentioned
specifically about knives but the is
about anything not to cash not to rely
on cashing. So if we cash and cover we
sort of we also covered it. So why just
not cover it? Why do we have to cash it
all together just cover it. So first of
all the reason why we don't just cover
it we also capture it because it's not
enough to cover. If you have a supposed
to lock it away not supposed to just
cover it also if you just cover
sometimes it tears the covering.
Sometimes there's moose and it could be
a problem. Also sometimes heat passes
through the covering especially if
there's liquid there and that could be a
shak.
Therefore we try to cover all our bases.
Excuse the pun. Cover all our bases. We
cash it and we cover
and we should not push this off till
close to PES. Do it in advance. There's
a customer doing it three days before
PES brought down the P. I'm going to go
through the order
of the calendar to PES and then we're
going to go through a few other of PES.
One of the things it says we should do
before PE is take a haircut. It doesn't
have to be done of PES. You're not
supposed to come into Yamu not looking
properly with long hair. The reason
you're not supposed not to take a
haircut because they wanted people to
take haircuts before Yam. So therefore
they made a rule you should not that
you're not allowed to take a haircut.
So do that in advance. Also this year
Shabas falls out the same way it fell
out when the came out of Pes falls out
the same way. Shabas was on the 10th of
Nissan Pes on a Thursday 10th of N when
Miriam passed away which was on a
Shabas.
But talking about Shabas, Friday night,
we just changed the clock over here in
New York. And the custom is not to make
Kdish from 6:00 to 7:00. But now that we
changed the clock, that would be from 7
to 8, but over here it's actually not 7
to 8 precisely. It's 6:56 to 7:56 over
here in New York on daylight savings
time. So people should be aware of it
because they're not used to that because
we just changed the clock. Shabas after
we say is when all the started happening
we say from
they say no because P is a special time
we emphasize children
so it's a good idea
to focus on children on we do a lot of
things that children shouldn't sleep on
by but also we should spend time with
our kids and explain to them
after we don't say
because whenever there's no six full
days of work since there's P coming up
during the week. We don't say and if
people did not do yet they should do on
remember to do that when they make and
using clothes via since we don't
normally use clothes on so we should put
it away the following day mabas and
Sunday is the birthday when we start a
new capital
and the encouraged people to learn the
capital of mafar the idea of saying the
reb's
staying the Reb's capital and learning
the Reb's
includes in it as a as a for all special
and brings down the Reb already gave the
Reb writes and it also brings down new
days later is the it's a day that we
like every other day we don't say but
the interesting thing about it is the
first 12 days of is the so we every day
the ni brought a carbon it's a yumptive
and if pes is a yumptive too pes is a
yumptive what happened there you give a
listen so one of the explanations is
because nothing really happened to you
listen but if most of the days are holy
holy just treat you listen holy too
alternatively yud was the for the 12
days they brought so now is the day
after is also a celebration and in that
day as mentioned earlier we don't say
the but we say the section of there's no
after
One thing that we do on you give them
listen is
people
who have
false teeth, people that have braces,
retainers, fillings. So there's a form
of cashing that people do. They casure
their teeth, their false teeth or their
retainers, all of that which we'll talk
about that momentarily.
But 24 hours before they do the
casuring, they should stop eating hot or
sharp. So usually the kashing happens
before the time the last time when we
could eat on pes. So the day before
listen 25 hours before you should stop
eating hot and sharp.
Now I'm up to you listen and I'm going
to mention something which might
surprise some people that says before
you should clean your house. The reason
it surprises some people sweep and clean
the room before
on listen many people start I don't know
time but in it's mentioned in
association with the laws of listen I've
heard that there were certain
communities they would take a broom and
that's how it became pes there was none
of this long lengthy preparations of
cleaning our houses are much bigger
today it's a bit harder so we might need
more time but I want to go through the
laws of cleaning but I put it over here
specifically listen trust on to put
things into focus where it's mentioned
in so we should know how much we have to
spend on it not necessarily you need
that amount of time
it's mentioned that you should sweep and
clean all of anywhere you going to do
including under the beds that people
sometimes are not careful what needs to
be cleaned what doesn't need to be
cleaned so as a famous expression
and kind
dirt is not and children are not a pes
sacrifice so dirt is not an issue is an
issue a place where is never brought in
doesn't have to happen there and if is
never brought in and you don't do you
also don't need to clean it a place
that's being sold to the gur and if it's
not being used of the pes you can't sell
a room and use that room also you could
sell a closet and lock off that closet
and not use it so if it's being sold
according to the and we follow that
position comes doesn't have to happen if
a cleaning doesn't have to happen
kidneys do not have to be sold and if
you don't have to search it you can have
place full of kidneys and that's
perfectly Fine. Any place which has less
than a kazay, a small amount of hum, and
it's dirty, soiled, it's not normally
edible. Not not edible for a dog. That's
not what I'm talking about. Not not fit
for a dog. It's just dirty. You won't
need it. You don't have to clean it. You
could have crumbs on the floor. That's
fine. And certainly if you have a messy
linen closet that has nothing to do with
pes, that's a spring cleaning issue.
It might not look suitable, but it's
nothing to do with cleaning for PES. So,
let's go through a plan, a cleaning
plan. First of all, whenever you check
an area and you clean it, you should
make sure that everybody else in the
family knows that this room was cleaned
and now this room is off limits to
comets. It's also easier when you start
with the low traffic rooms, rooms that
are much less likely to have comets in
it. So, for example, bedrooms and
bathrooms and be careful. Make sure the
toiletries and medicine cabinets are
checked, the closets are checked,
clothing pockets, garbage cans,
um under the beds, toy storage areas.
Also, there's there's basement people
forget about garages. People forget
about cold closets. These are all the
areas should be checked. And you move on
from the low traffic to the high traffic
until eventually you come to the kitchen
or the dining room that you leave for
more later. Your couch needs to be
checked. It's a bit hard to clean a
couch, a false couch, and some there's a
lot of pieces of that get in there. So,
one of the techniques is it's easy if
you just pour a cleaning agent which
makes the inedible and if once those
crumbs are inedible, it's not really a
big deal. Just make sure you don't eat
it afterwards on PE for two reasons.
Number one, it's number two, it's not
safe. Backpacks should be checked.
Coats, I said mentioned coat closet,
coat pockets should be checked.
Cars, car seats, glove compartments.
Now, car seat again similar issues. A
lot of crumbs in the car in some cars.
So, it's almost impossible to clean.
Get a good professional cleaning. put
some cleaning agents which makes the
inedible and warn your children not to
eat anything from the pes
we're up to the night of
we swept and cleaned
but even after you sweep and clean you
need to dots
in nooks and crannies and cracks maybe
there is some left didn't we sweep cuz
sweep doesn't help for cracks for nooks
and crannies And these areas that you
don't in order to do some need to have
there to the light of a candle by night.
Now some areas you could see but nooks
and crannies and cracks you can't see
unless you move your flashlight or a
candle.
So when comes as if nothing happened but
only in those areas that you couldn't
see when you cleaned a place that you
could just feel. So you could have
checked that earlier. Also today's day
and age people are much more lenient
with bik because when we we clean we use
so much cleaning agents that it's all
dirty and it doesn't really need we
still have to do because even if you
search your whole entire house you need
to take have one room that you leave for
the night
and
part of is make sure there are no places
cracks that you didn't notice or maybe
there's a place that wasn't cleaned or
maybe was clean was brought in
afterwards. So it's just sort of
double-checking everything. The custom
is that we put pieces of comets all
throughout the house. Pieces that will
not crumble up wrapped separately closed
in a way that it shouldn't open up.
Don't wrap with sulfur which doesn't
burn well. And we do that before comes
that the person that's searching forts
should find those pieces but that's not
what he's searching for. That's in case
he doesn't find anything at least he
should find these pieces. But the idea
is not to search for these pieces
specifically. It's to search for in
general. According to Kabal, we put out
10 pieces and it's advisable to have a
piece of paper which you prepare in
advance and uh have Somi written down.
Every single place where you put those
10 pieces in case something gets lost.
All the pieces together should ideally
be a kaz when you put them together in
the bag and the spoon and you put it all
together. You'll you'll have a full kaz
to be the mitzvah. Before you do, all
other should be put aside any you're
going to be eating. Don't let it be in a
place that people can shle it around.
Put in a place that's not reachable.
Before
you do, it's about a half an hour before
you're not allowed to eat. If someone
else is doing the not you, you're
allowed to eat. But those who do
shouldn't eat. Eating does not include
fruit. Eating means misus or bread more
than the size of the size of of an egg.
You're not supposed to learn. You're not
supposed to. You're not supposed to take
a shower.
The custom is we do it right after says
gave a set time. If you're not starting
on the right time, it's not lazy. It's a
you're going against what said. So you
shouldn't delay it at any moment because
even to learn they don't let you might
get carried away with learning. So you
might have right away and go to dots. If
you didn't do right away do it later and
whenever it is you not to eat then learn
and do all those things until you do.
Many have the custom of washing their
hands before
it's a mitz that we're doing should be
done properly with after we wash our
hands.
Sorry apologies for a moment. And before
comes to make a we make the in the room
that we're going to be starting to
search. So we shouldn't make a then go
somewhere else. We have family members
there with us to hear the are going to
be helping us with the search. These
family members should be men that are
adults that are 13 years and up male
male adults. They shouldn't talk and
they should start doing right in that
room cuz after the they should start
right away and then they can move on to
other rooms. between the brah and
starting to search one is not supposed
to talk even about
if a person spoke something not related
to right after the brah you have to make
a new ideally you shouldn't talk about
nonadikas matters throughout the entire
is done with a candle a candle is good
to be able to look at nooks and crannies
a small wax candle if there's a concern
of fire you can use a flashlight that's
perfectly fine and you don't have to
turn off the electricity it's better to
leave the electric lights on we check
every single nook and cranny. Any place
is a concern that maybe there was there.
Even if you're sure you never had there,
it's a place that could go in there, you
should check it in a place with his kids
or even very low places that people
don't normally go, the kids could have
put there. Make sure to check the car
with an electric. Don't check the car
with a candle.
It's absolutely dangerous. With a
flashlight, some people are leaning and
they check the car by day. They do it's
by day, but really it should be done.
There's room to be malam but it should
be done by night. If you're planning to
go to your workplace
and if it wasn't included in your sale,
it's not locked away and sold the has to
happen. So you go from your house, don't
talk until you go to your workplace and
you check your car, your workplace, it's
all included. The writes that our custom
is
to spend a lot of times.
A lot of people think that whatever
comes you found you have to burn. No,
you don't have to burn it. You have to
get rid of your so you can eat it. It is
our custom to have 10 pieces for
burning. But get rid of the by hook or
by crook by the time of
after you finish check the pieces. Make
sure you have 10 pieces. If you have one
of those notes you wrote down whatever
piece is mark off each piece where it
was found. If you didn't find one of the
pieces, you need to really do with
you know where that piece is just which
room it is. Just check that room. If you
check the G, you still can't find it.
Then we have no choice. We have to rely
just on the after you check the you
can't find it. That's why it's good to
have one of those papers written in
advance where your piece is. And all the
you found any that you're saving you're
going to be burning or eating make sure
it's protected that it shouldn't be
slept around. kids, mice.
This is not just good advice. It's a you
have to be care person is not careful on
putting aside properly but said has to
be put away properly. Any that's in the
house should not be left open should be
locked up after because otherwise it
defeats the purpose of
make sure all the last items that oft
and after you do you say and you nullify
the nullifying means that you in your
mind all the you have is is as if it's
non-existent. It's like dirt like earth
as you have no need. You take your mind
off all the it becomes ownerless and
then when you do that you don't have the
you need to say the words but it's not
just saying it's having that in mind and
you're supposed to say in a language you
understand there's no point in saying it
in in a language that you don't
understand
what you're nullifying right now after
is that you're aware of sorry that
you're not aware of any that you didn't
find you're nullifying the you know
about that you're planning to eat for
tomorrow you're not nullify how could
you nullify and you're planning to use
it tonight after have a pizza party
after or tomorrow morning that you're
saving for tomorrow morning to have
so it's only that you don't know about
that's in terms of the night of end of
pes you now eat matzah all day long our
custom is from but accord it starts at
the end of a child a little child that
doesn't know anything doesn't know about
they eat matz all day all day long
before kish but once
You should not feed a matzah on pes
until the time of matzah. It is the
kabat custom that from the morning of PE
until of the second night we don't eat
any of the foods that going to go into
and other than for the actual mitzvah of
you could eat chicken you can eat meat
you can eat eggs you can eat potatoes
you could eat onions even though it's on
the kra the problem is anything that
goes into the apple pears and nuts and
motor horseradish lettuce etc
in the morning we wake up extra early
because we want to make sure if people
are going to be eating they're going to
be eating before the time of we say in
which is a carbon that's not broad nor
do we say it on it's a carbon which has
in it so we don't say it on
we don't very long we make sure to
finish out quickly so there shouldn't be
any any cause any stumbling blocks by
ding too long and then forgetting to do
the mitzvah you're supposed to do make
sure you shake out and clean out your
tal since after dinging if you're going
to be burning the early in the morning
and you're planning still to eat after
you burn the in the morning until the
time that you're allowed to eat don't
say the second we say by day say it only
after you finished eating only when you
get rid of all your
I'm not going to go into the of fasting
for the firstborn that's only relevant
to some people there's a special meaning
that the firstborn fast commemorating
the nest that they were safe for
and in the p we have about that at
length that last time for eating over
here in night is 10:51 in the morning of
pes until that time you can eat after
that time you can have benefit oft you
can't eat it so before the time where
you not need anymore, you should clean
your mouth, your teeth,
rinse your mouth very very well. Make
sure there's filters on the sinks for
people that have been drinking water.
And those that had false teeth, those
are going to be capturing their mouth.
So what they do is they put in hot
water. They either put the false teeth,
they pour boiling water over it from a
cliche, not directly from a from a uh
pot. If they're worried it's going to be
ruined, they'll just clean it clean it
very very well. Same thing with
retainers. So if you take them out, make
sure you don't wear them when you're
eating on PES. If they're in your mouth,
you can't take them out. Fillings. So
what people do, they drink hot water the
amount the heat that they can handle
without of course injuring themselves.
And that's quote unquote a form of
kashing. And like I said 24 hours before
that we don't eat hot or sharp
cigarettes.
A lot of them have a one has to be
careful
shouldn't go to problems of he has
problems with smoking in general.
There's problems with smoking a
gentleman from Sak. There's problem with
electric cigarettes, electronic
cigarettes. But I'm mentioning the
aspect
in the office of the we don't wait for
the last minute to sell the we sell it
earlier. So it's important to the last
place the place that you're selling to
go do that much early. Lock it all off
and put everything away there. Make sure
before those beer that all your garbage
bags, your vacuum cleaners, everything
is all the the bags in the vacuum all
that is taken care of. If ladies have
rings they're going to be wearing and
they want to casure it because the touch
comet they should casure it on their not
forget to do that shaking out the
pockets
or gloves. So the is that during beer
you're supposed to shake out your
pockets. So if a person never puts into
his pockets, they don't do
even though it says
you
the reason we shake out the pockets
because you might have putt again into
your pockets unknowingly ones in the
morning. An important rule for people in
New York recently the law is that we
have to have our own garbage cans and in
our garbage cans we put our garbage
bags. That means the garbage cans belong
to us even if you keep it in the street.
If you have KTS in there, it's yours. So
if it belongs to you, you need to get
rid of the KTS before the beer. One of
the ways to get rid of the is if you
didn't have a garbage collection is to
pour in it bleach or something else
which will ruin the it won't be edible.
If the garbage can belongs to the city
and the you put it in the street and
it's not in your property. As long as
it's not your garbage can and it's not
in your property, everything is fine.
Is over here in 11:54 in the morning.
You should try not to wait till the last
minute. After that time, you can't sell
the KT to a guy anymore. Can't have
benefit for you're supposed to burn the
ide.
If you do need to send some to do, don't
send the child and a special fire just
for the make sure to don't forget take
the 10 pieces with you and bring it to
burn. And when we burn the then we say
it's ideally the was supposed to say is
said at night to nullify the but the
it's appropriate to nullify again the
this time we're nullifying even thet
that we know of by night we're talking
only about the stuff that we didn't know
what we know we're going to eat we're
going to burn we're not nullifying now
when it comes to burning the after we
burn the now we're nullifying everything
including what we know about because in
case when I was eating there's a crumb
that was left and who knows But we don't
want to it's a slightly different of
that we say by day and then there's a
special that is said by
the if somebody finds in their property
I want to mention how this is according
to the and how this is slightly
different today in it says if you find
after you're supposed to burn
through until night time or you find
destroy it right Hey, if you find it on
Yam or on Shabas, you can't touch it.
It's MTI. Cover it. So, you shouldn't
come to eat it. You move it without your
hands. You let it move with your body,
with your elbow, whatever it is, with
your feet. But you're not it's supposed
to cover it.
You burn it. when you're burning it when
it's not after when it's on PE itself
then if it's proper and it's more than a
you actually make the question is
nowadays does this still apply why
should it not apply cuz nowadays in our
sales contracts of the we try to cover
all our bases and we write that any type
of that they have and even this and even
this and even this so maybe this was
already all sold although it wasn't
marked
specifically which makes a weakness in
the sale cuz it's very hard to sell
something that nobody knows about. It
was found underneath a desk somewhere in
a room. So the question is should we
burn it? Some people say don't burn it.
It's not yours. It's the goods. Put it
together the rest of the but in case
somebody is worried that maybe the sale
did not work for this KT cuz it wasn't
the official KT that was marked that
you're selling. So you could burn it but
without a bra. It's not considered
stealing because if the guy's going to
ask you for the money, you'll pay him
back. It's okay to take it from the guy
with intentionally you're going to pay
him back. Have in mind when you taking
you don't want to acquire ownership of
it. Specify I don't want to take
ownership of this. Don't touch it. Push
it with something and burn it. So this
you cover it's it's covered. You're not
supposed to be on P in a room in a room
which has come. So if there's a area
that has which is locked and sold to the
go don't go and they don't spend time
there. If you need to go and get
something you need to get a piece of
paper from that room you go in and out.
The guy gives permission for you to go
in the areas that were rented out for
him. But otherwise they shouldn't be
staying in such an area. If somebody is
in a place and he has to stay in a place
where someone else is and they have
their talk to and find out how to do
this. I've just concluded with giving a
before the I will mention there's
another we're going to be going through
the rest of the not but more in terms of
preparation for the sedar and how the
sedan night works all the associated
preparation for the sed and the sedanite
and so on and so forth. what I call the
the positive sign not getting rid of the
but the positive not getting rid of the
negative and that will be on Thursday
everybody all the listeners
as a famous line goes if it might not be
that might not be that happy and if it's
very happy might not be therefore we
wish you should be and the ultimate is
that we have the ability to see the
be in the
bring a carbon. There's so many mitzvah
of PES that are associated not only with
but with PE and we want to fulfill those
mitzvah. We're seeing now is the time.
We're seeing that has told us that we're
in the time of redemption. We're seeing
all the that are telling us that Mashiah
has come every given moment. We're
entering the we don't have to wait for
that. We should have Msiah now.
