Together
Dear All, I hope you are keeping well! 

I expect you may be missing our Bet Hakeneset as much as I. With the availability of Zoom let's get together for a Moor Lane Hallel. Simply log on and join in (if you wish) at  7:40am tomorrow morning. 

Link to Zoom: https://us04web.zoom.us/j/310520974   Or if you are just need the Meeting ID: 310 520 974

If I'm not quite up to Hallel by 7:40 please bear with me for a couple of minutes.

Please note that R Shmuel Oppenheimer's Amud Yomi Shiur starts a brand new Mishna tomorrow at 6:30am.  Please message me to join that! Masechet Succah. 
All the very best,
Benjamin

Q & A on Parashat Vayikra

All references are to the verses and Rashi's commentary, unless otherwise stated

  1. Who does the word "eilav" in verse 1:1 exclude?
    1:1 – Aharon.
  2. Name all the types of animals and birds mentioned in this week's Parsha.
    1:2,14, 3:12 – Cattle, sheep, goats, turtledoves (torim), and doves (bnei yona).
  3. What two types of sin does an olah atone for?
    1:4 – Neglecting a positive command, and violating a negative command which is rectified by a positive command.
  4. Where was the olah slaughtered?
    1:5 – In the Mishkan Courtyard (azarah).
  5. What procedure of an animal-offering can a non-kohen perform?
    1:5 – Ritual slaughter.
  6. Besides the fire the kohanim bring on the altar, where else did the fire come from?
    1:7 – It descended from Heaven.
  7. At what stage of development are torim (turtledoves) and bnei yona (young pigeons) unfit as offerings?
    1:14 – When their plumage turns golden. At that stage, bnei yona are too old and torim are too young.
  8. What is melika?
    1:15 – Slaughtering a bird from the back of the neck using one's fingernail.
  9. Why are animal innards offered on the altar, while bird innards are not?
    1:16 – An animal's food is provided by its owner, so its innards are "kosher." Birds, however, eat food that they scavenge, so their innards are tainted with "theft."
  10. Why does the Torah describe both the animal and bird offerings as a "satisfying aroma"?
    1:17 – To indicate that the size of the offering is irrelevant, provided your heart is directed toward G-d.
  11. Why is the term "nefesh" used regarding the flour offering?
    2:1 – Usually, it is a poor person who brings a flour offering. Therefore, G-d regards it as if he had offered his nefesh (soul).
  12. Which part of the free-will mincha offering is burned on the altar?
    2:1 – The kometz (fistful).
  13. The Torah forbids bringing honey with the mincha. What is meant by "honey"?
    2:11 – Any sweet fruit derivative.
  14. When does the Torah permit bringing a leavened bread offering?
    2:12 – On Shavuot.
  15. Concerning shelamim, why does the Torah teach about sheep and goats separately?
    3:7 – Because they differ regarding the alya (fat tail). The lamb's alya is burned on the altar but the goat's is not.
  16. For most offerings the kohen may use a service vessel to apply the blood on the mizbe'ach. For which korban may he apply the blood using only his finger?
    3:8 – The chatat.
  17. Who is obligated to bring a chatat?
    4:2 – One who accidentally transgresses a negative commandment whose willing violation carries the karet (excision) penalty.
  18. Where were the remains of the bull burned while in the wilderness? Where were they burned during the time of the Beit Hamikdash?
    4:12 –
    1. Outside the three camps.
    2. Outside Jerusalem.
  19. What two things does a voluntary mincha have that a minchat chatat lacks?
    5:11 – Levona and oil.
  20. What is the minimum value of a korban asham?
    5:15 – Two shekalim.

Halachot from Maran Rabbi Ovadia Yosef Ztz'l

ביעור ומכירת חמץ

ביעור חמץ 
ביום י"ד בניסן
בבוקר, כלומר, מבערים את החמץ עד סוף
הזמן הקרוי לביעורו 

כיצד מצות ביעור חמץ? שורפו או פוררו לפירורים דקים,
וזורהו ברוח או זורקו לים. והמנהג לשורפו באש. וחמץ שהושלך לאשפה (חוץ לבית, לפני
זמן איסור אכילת חמץ), אין חובה מן הדין לשרפו
.

"חמץ שעבר עליו הפסח"
כל המשהה חמץ ברשותו בימי
הפסח, ביטל מצות עשה, שנאמר "תשביתו שאור מבתיכם", ועבר על לא תעשה,
שנאמר "לא יראה לך חמץ". לפיכך קנסו חכמים את מי שעבר על איסור זה,
ואמרו (פסחים כח.): "חמץ של ישראל שעבר עליו הפסח אסור בהנאה". וחמץ זה
נאסר בהנאה בין לאותו אדם שהשהה אותו בפסח, בין לאנשים אחרים, ואף אם לא ידעו אותם
האחרים שחמץ זה עבר עליו הפסח, היודע מכך, חייב להודיעם ולהפרישם, להצילם ממכשול
שלא יאכלו ממנו
.

מכירת חמץ
נהגו ישראל, ובפרט בעלי
חנויות, מפעלים, מחסנים וכדומה, למכור את החמץ לגוי בערב פסח. וניתן לעשות מכירת
חמץ באמצעות חתימה על "הרשאה" למכירתו, על ידי רבני בתי הכנסת שבכל מקום
ומקום. ומומלץ מאד לעשות "מכירת חמץ" כנהוג, בפרט למי שרוצה להשאיר
ברשותו מיני חמץ שחבל לו לאבדם, כגון משקאות יקרים וכדומה
.

ותוקף מכירת החמץ, הוא משום שחמץ שהיה ביד הגוי בימי
הפסח, לא נאסר בהנאה לאחר הפסח, משום שהגויים אינם מצווים על איסור חמץ כלל, ומותר
להם להחזיקו ברשותם בחג הפסח. לפיכך, על ידי מכירת החמץ, באופנים המועילים על פי
התורה, נמכר החמץ לגוי באופן מוחלט
.

וכיצד עושים את המכירה? רבני הערים שבכל מקום, נפגשים
עם הגוי ביום ערב פסח, ומסבירים לו היטב את תוכן השטר עליו הוא עתיד לחתום. והגוי
משלם "מיקדמה" בסך כמה מאות שקלים על כל החמץ שמוכרים לו, ומסוכם עמו,
שלאחר ימי הפסח, אם ירצה, יוכל לשלם את יתרת החוב (העולה לכמה מאות מליוני שקלים,
או לסכום אחר, על פי ערך החמץ הנמכר), ואז יהיה רשאי ללכת בעצמו ולקחת את החמץ בכל
מקום שיחפוץ. ואם לא ישלם את יתרת החוב, יחזור החמץ לבעליו היהודים, שיוכלו 
לאכול ממנו ולסחור בו כרצונם
.

ואף על פי שהדבר ידוע כמעט בבירור מוחלט, שהגוי לא
יבא לאחר ימי הפסח לקחת אליו את החמץ, מכל מקום מאחר שיש בידו לעשות כן, המכירה
מועילה. וכמו שכתב מרן השלחן ערוך (בסימן תמח) בזו הלשון

"
ואם מכרו או נתנו (את
החמץ) לאינו יהודי במתנה קודם הפסח, אף על פי שמכרו לאינו יהודי, ויודע בו שלא יגע
בו כלל, אלא ישמרנו לו (עבור היהודי) עד לאחר הפסח, ויחזור ויתננו לו, מותר".
ומקור דבריו ממה שכתב התרומת הדשן בדין זה
.

היכן להניח את החמץ המכור
המוכר את חמצו לגוי, צריך
להצניע אותו בארון או בחדר מיוחד, ולציין על הארון שמדובר בחמץ. ועל ידי כך לא
יבוא לידי מכשול בחג הפסח, ולאכול מן החמץ
.

רכישת מוצרים אחר הפסח
כל הירא לדבר ה' לא יקנה
לאחר הפסח שום מצרך שיש בו חמץ, אלא מבעלי מכולת וצרכניה יראי שמים שמכרו את החמץ
שלהם לגוי, על ידי הרבנות המקומית, או על ידי גוף כשרות אחר, כנהוג
.

Elimination and Sale of
Chametz

Elimination of Chametz
On the morning of the Fourteenth of Nissan,  one must eliminate Chametz before the
last time to do so arrives. 

How does one perform the
Mitzvah of eliminating Chametz? One must burn it or crumble it into tiny pieces
and throw it to the wind or into the sea. The custom though is to burn it.
Chametz which was thrown into a public trash receptacle (not in one’s possession
and before the time when Chametz becomes forbidden) need not be burned
according to Halacha.

“Chametz Which Pesach
Has Passed Over”

One who has kept Chametz in one’s possession on Pesach has nullified the
positive commandment of “You shall eradicate leaven from your homes” in
addition to transgressing the negative commandment of “Chametz shall not be
seen with you.” Our Sages have thus fined one who has transgressed this
commandment by decreeing (Pesachim 28a): “Chametz owned by a Jew which was in
his possession during Pesach is prohibited to benefit from.” Such Chametz
becomes prohibited to benefit from for the person who kept it in his possession
on Pesach as well as for others. Even if others do not know that this Chametz
was kept during Pesach, one who does know must notify others of this in order
to prevent them from the prohibition of eating it.

Sale of Chametz
It is customary among the Jewish people, especially with regards to store,
factory, and warehouse owners, to sell one’s Chametz on Erev Pesach. The sale
of Chametz can be carried out by signing a “power of attorney” appointing a
Torah scholar to sell it which can be obtained from rabbis of synagogues all
over the world. It is highly advised that one carry out this “Sale of Chametz”
as is customary, especially for those who would like to keep Chametz which
would be wasteful to dispose of in their possession, such as expensive
alcoholic beverages and the like.

The basis for the sale
of Chametz is that Chametz owned by a non-Jew on Pesach does not become
prohibited to benefit from after Pesach, for non-Jews are not commanded with
regards to the prohibitions of Chametz on Pesach at all and they may keep it in
their possession on Pesach. Thus, by selling one’s Chametz and performing
certain transactions prescribed by Halacha, the Chametz is sold to the non-Jew
absolutely.

How is this sale carried
out? Rabbis all over the world meet with a non-Jew on Erev Pesach and explain
to him clearly the contents of the contract which he will be signing on. The non-Jew
then puts down a “down-payment” sometimes amounting to several hundreds of
dollars for the Chametz being sold to him. It is agreed upon that after the
holiday of Pesach, if he wishes he may pay the balance of his debt (which
usually amounts to several millions of dollars based on the value of the
Chametz which he has purchased), at which point he may go and collect all of
the Chametz, wherever it may be. However, if he does not pay the balance, the
Chametz shall return to its original Jewish owners who will then be permitted
to eat it or sell it as they see fit.

Although it is almost
certain that the non-Jew will not come after Pesach and claim the Chametz,
nevertheless, since he has the ability to do so, the sale is valid. Similarly,
Maran Ha’Shulchan Aruch (Chapter 448) states: “If Chametz was sold or given as
a gift to a non-Jew before Pesach, although it was sold to a non-Jew who will
certainly not touch it at all, rather, he will safeguard it for him (the Jew)
until after Pesach at which point he will give it back to him, this is
permissible.” The source for this ruling stems from the ruling of the Terumat
Ha’Deshen regarding this matter.

Where the Sold Chametz
Should be Placed

If one sells his Chametz to a non-Jew, one must conceal it in a designated
closet or room and mark the closet/room in a way that is noticeable that it
contains Chametz. By doing so, one will prevent mistaken consumption of these
items during Pesach.

Purchasing Chametz Items
after Pesach

One who is truly G-d-fearing should purchase Chametz items after Pesach only
from G-d-fearing store owners and grocers who have sold their Chametz to a
non-Jew before Pesach via the local rabbinate or any other Kashrut
organization, as is customary.

Halachot from Maran Rabbi Ovadia Yosef Ztz'l

הכשר השולחן והשיש

כבר ביארנו, שכשם שיש לייחד
כלים נפרדים למאכלי בשר ולמאכלי חלב, כמו כן בחג הפסח, אסור להשתמש בכלים של כל
השנה, אלא יש לייחד כלים כשרים לפסח
.

ואמנם
יש אופנים בהם ניתן להכשיר כלי שהשתמשו בו בחמץ, ולעשותו כשר לפסח
.

כלי
פלסטיק, יש להם הכשר לפסח כדרך תשמישן, דהיינו שאם נשתמשו בהם בצונן, די להם
בשטיפה יסודית, ואם נשתמשו בהם בכלי שני, דהיינו שיצקו לתוכם מאכלים חמים מסיר
אחר, יש להם הכשר על ידי עירוי מים רותחים מכלי ראשון, וכפי שכבר הסברנו, שניתן
לעשות זאת על ידי יציקת מים רותחים מהקומקום החשמלי ישירות על גבי כלי הפלסטיק
.

ולפיכך
"שעוונית" (שהיא מפה מחומר פלסטי
) שהייתה פרושה על גבי השולחן במשך כל השנה, ויש לחוש
שנשפכו על גביה מאכלי חמץ רותחים במשך השנה. אפשר להכשירה על ידי ניקיון יסודי,
ועירוי מים רותחים מכלי ראשון על גבי השעוונית, וכן ניתן להכשיר את השעוונית, על
ידי כיבוס במים רותחים
.

ואם
אכלו על השלחן בלא הפסק מפה נוהגים להכשירו על ידי ניקיון יסודי ועירוי במים
רותחים כנ"ל. ואם אין רוצים לערות מים רותחים על גבי השלחן כדי שלא יתקלקל או
מאיזה סיבה שתהיה, מותר לאכול על גביו בחג הפסח על ידי שיפרוש עליו מפה או שעוונית
.

דין
השיש שבמטבח הרי הוא כדין השלחן, ואפשר להכשירו לפסח על ידי שיערו עליו מים רותחים
מכלי ראשון אחרי ניקוי יסודי. וכמו כן יש להכשיר את הכיורים בבית
(אף אם הם עשויים חרסינה)
על ידי עירוי מים רותחים מכלי ראשון, ודי בזה
. ויש המחמירים לצפות את השיש והכיור בנייר אלומיניום.
ונכון לעשות כן על ידי נייר חזק ועבה, כדי שלא יקרע בקלות
.

כתב
רבינו יהודה החסיד
, שבהיות
ודיני הגעלה מרובים מאד בפרטיהם ובפרטי פרטים, ראוי למנות בעל תורה להשגיח על
הגעלת כלים. וכן בכל מקרה שמתעוררת שאלה בדיני פסח, צריך כל אדם לפנות לתלמיד חכם
אמיתי שיורה לו הדרך אשר ילך בה ואת המעשה אשר יעשון

Koshering Tables and Countertops

We have previously discussed
that just as one should designate vessels for milk and meat respectively,
likewise, regarding the holiday of Pesach, one should not use his regular
Chametz vessels that were used all year round; rather, one should designate
special Kosher for Pesach vessels.

Nevertheless, there are ways to make vessels that were used for Chametz kosher
for Pesach use.

Plastic utensils are able to be koshered according to their use, meaning that
if they were used with cold items, a thorough washing is sufficient, and if
they were used as a “Keli Sheni”, meaning that hot foods were dished into them
from a different pot, they may be koshered by pouring boiling water from a
“Keli Rishon” (the pot where the water was boiled) onto them. As we have
explained in a previous Halacha, this may be performed by pouring boiling water
directly from an electric kettle onto the plastic utensil.

Therefore, if there was a plastic tablecloth (non-disposable) draped over the
table during the course of the year and there quite possibly could have been
hot Chametz that spilled onto it, it may be koshered through a thorough
cleaning followed by pouring boiling water from a “Keli Rishon” onto it.
Similarly, it may be koshered through laundering it in boiling water.

If a table was eaten on during the course of the year without the use of a
tablecloth, the table may be koshered with a thorough cleaning followed by
pouring boiling water from a “Keli Rishon” onto it, as above. If one does not
wish to pour boiling water onto the table so as not to ruin it or for any other
reason, one may eat on this table during the holiday of Pesach with the use of
a new regular or plastic tablecloth.

Kitchen countertops have the same halachic status as the table and may be
koshered through pouring boiling water from a “Keli Rishon” onto them after
being thoroughly cleaned. Similarly, the kitchen sinks (even if they are made of
ceramic) may be koshered through pouring boiling water from a “Keli Rishon”
onto them, and this is sufficient. Some act more stringently and cover the
countertops and sinks with aluminum foil.

Rabbeinu Yehuda HaChasid writes that since the laws of Hag’ala are tedious and
detailed, it is proper to appoint a prominent Torah scholar to oversee the
process of Hag’ala of utensils. Similarly, if one encounters a question
regarding any Pesach-related issue, one should consult a leading halachic
authority to guide him on the true Torah path


דין הכשר כלים לפסח


בהלכות
הקודמות


הזכרנו
שאין להשתמש בפסח בכלי חמץ, מפני שהם בלועים מחמץ כמו שהסברנו
.
והנה
דיני הכשר כלים לפסח הם קשים גם מבחינה הלכתית וגם מבחינה מעשית, ומרן רבינו הגדול
רבי עובדיה יוסף זצ"ל סידר לנו בחבוריו ובשעוריו את דיני הכשרת הכלים לחג
הפסח
.

כל
כלי, דרך ההכשר שלו היא כפי דרך השימוש בו, משום שכלל יש בידינו "כבולעו כך
פולטו" ולפיכך כלי שדרך השימוש בו היא על ידי בישול, כגון סיר בישול
,
דרך
ההכשר שלו היא כתשמישו, והיינו להגעילו, כלומר לטובלו, בתוך כלי עם מים רותחים.
וצריך שיהיו המים רותחים בכלי ראשון, (כלומר, יש להגעיל את הכלי במים רותחים
שנמצאין בכלי הראשון שבו הם רתחו, אבל אין להגעיל את הכלי בתוך מים רותחים ששפכו
אותם מהכלי שבו הם רתחו לכלי אחר, כי כלי זה כבר אינו כלי ראשון, אלא כלי שני,
ואין המים שבכלי שני רותחים דיים בכדי לגרום להפלטת מה שבלוע בתוך הכלי שמטבילים
בתוכו.) ולכן סכינים וכפות וכיוצא בזה
, אפשר להגעילם על ידי שיטבלם בתוך מים רותחים
שבקומקום החשמלי, על ידי שיטביל תחילה צד אחד של הסכין ולאחר מכן את צידו השני.
(ואם הידית של הסכין עשויה עץ אי אפשר להכשירה בהגעלה
).

קודם
ההגעלה יש לנקות את הכלים היטב לבל ישאר בהם שום שמץ לכלוך או חלודה
.

שפודים
ואסכלאות שמשתמשים בהם באש בלא אמצעות נוזלים, צריכים ליבון באש ממש עד שיהיו
ניצוצות ניתזין מהם, דהיינו עד שיאדים הברזל. וכן הדין ב"סיר פלא
"
שאופים
בו עוגה חמץ על גבי הכיריים במשך כל ימות השנה, ההכשר שלו הוא רק על ידי
"ליבון חמור" דהיינו ליבון על גבי אש עד שיאדים הברזל. ובסירים בדרך כלל
הדבר אינו אפשרי מבחינה מעשית ולכן בהכרח יש לקנות סיר חדש. אבל סיר שהשתמשו בו רק
לבישול, יש לו הכשר כאמור על ידי הגעלה ברותחין
.

החצובה,
שהיא
הברזל המונח סמוך לאש על גבי הכיריים, יש לנקותה ולהגעילה ברותחין
.
ואם
עירה עליה (שפך עליה) מים רותחים מכלי ראשון, הוכשרה בכך. ומותר להשתמש בה בפסח
.

ובהלכה
הבאה נבאר עוד פרטי דינים בזה
.

The Laws of Koshering Vessels for Pesach

In
the
previous
Halacha
, we have explained
that one should not use Chametz vessels on Pesach since they have Chametz
flavor absorbed in them. Since the laws of koshering vessels for Pesach are
difficult both from a halachic and a practical
perspective, Maran Rabbeinu Ovadia Yosef zt”l
has arranged these laws for us in a clear and concise manner in his lectures as
well as in his works.

A vessel is koshered in the same manner it is generally used, for we have a
rule, “The same way it absorbs is the same way it releases.” Therefore, any
vessel which is used for cooking, such as a pot, the method of koshering it is
the same way it is used, i.e. a process called “Hag’ala” which is immersing it
in a pot of boiling water. The boiling water must be in “Keli Rishon” (meaning
that the vessel must be immersed into boiling water which is in the original
vessel where the water was boiled in and is still on the flame; however, one
should not perform Hag’ala in a vessel which the water was not originally
boiled in and was merely poured into from the original vessel which was on the
fire, for this vessel is not considered a “Keli Rishon” and is merely a “Keli
Sheni.” The water in a “Keli Sheni” is not considered boiling enough to cause
the vessel immersed into it to release its Chametz flavor). Thus, knives,
spoons, and the like can be koshered by immersing them into water boiled in a
pot on the flame or an electric kettle by first immersing one end of the knife
followed by the other end. (If the handle of the knife is made of wood, it
cannot be koshered through Hag’ala.)

Before performing Hag’ala, one must clean the vessel thoroughly and make sure
no residue or rust remains.

Skewers and spits which are used with fire but without liquids must be torched
with fire until sparks emerge, i.e. when the metal turns red. The same applies
to a “Wonder Pot” which is used to bake Chametz cakes throughout the year which
can only be koshered by torching it with fire until the metal turns red-hot.
Usually, this is not practical with regards to pots and one must therefore
purchase new pots for Pesach. Nevertheless, a pot which was used only for
cooking Chametz throughout the year can be koshered with Hag’ala as we have
explained.

The grate, which is the square or round metal piece which the pots and pans sit
on the stovetop during cooking, should be koshered by cleaning it well and
immersing it into boiling water in a Keli Rishon. However, if one pours boiling
water from a Keli Rishon onto it, it is nevertheless koshered and is then
permissible for use on Pesach.

In the next Halacha, we shall, G-d-willing, discuss this
matter further.

דיני
הכשר כלים לפסח (המשך
)


ביארנו,
שיש
להשתמש בפסח בכלים שלא נבלע בהם חמץ, דהיינו כלים חדשים (או מיוחדים לפסח), או
כלים שהוכשרו לפסח. ובדרך כלל דרך ההכשר של הכלי הוא כדרך השימוש בו
.

צלחות
וקערות
, ששמים בהן מאכלים חמים, אבל לא משתמשים בהן ככלי ראשון ממש,
דהיינו שהדרך היא שכששמים בהן מאכל, יוצקים אותו לתוכן מתוך סיר אחר, (שאותו סיר
הוא היה הכלי הראשון שרתחו בו המים) הכשרן הוא כדרך שימושן, דהיינו על ידי שיערו
(מלשון עירוי
– שפיכה) עליהם מים רותחים מכלי ראשון (למשל, מתוך הקומקום החשמלי שבו רתחו המים),
וכל שכן שניתן להכשירם על ידי הגעלה ממש, דהיינו להטבילן בתוך מים רותחים בכלי
הראשון שהם רותחים בו
.

מחבת,
שמטגנים
בו מאכלי חמץ בשמן, נחלקו בו הפוסקים אם דינו כדין סיר שמבשלין בו תבשילים של חמץ
שדי לו בהגעלה, או שמא מכיון שאין בו נוזלים כל כך, דינו כדין שיפודים שצריכים
ליבון על ידי אש. ומנהג הספרדים הוא שדי למחבת בהגעלה, ואילו למנהג האשכנזים יש
להצריך ליבון באש למחבת. וכתב מרן רבינו הגדול רבי עובדיה יוסף זצ"ל, שאף
למנהג האשכנזים אין להצריך שהמחבת תרתח על ידי אש עד שהיא תאדים אלא די בליבון קל,
דהיינו שהמחבת תתחמם עד שאם ישימו עליה קש הוא ישרף
.

כל
כלי שלא השתמשו בו ברותחין, כגון כלי כסף, וכן המקרר והמקפיא וכדומה, אינם צריכים
שום הכשר, ודי להם בניקוי היטב בלבד
.

כלי
חרס אין להם שום הכשר כלל ואף אם ילבנם היטב באש, לעולם הם עומדים באיסורם. וכלי
זכוכית, אינם צריכים הכשר כלל ולדעת מרן השלחן ערוך די להם בשטיפה כהוגן, אך מנהג
האשכנזים להחמיר בזה. וכבר הזכרנו מחלוקת זו בהלכות בשר וחלב. כלי פורצליין, אף
למנהג הספרדים, דינם ככלי חרס ולא מועיל להם שום הכשר
.

יש
להשתדל ככל האפשר שהכלים יוגעלו לאחר שיעברו עליהם עשרים וארבע שעות בלי שימוש.
ומותר להגעיל כלי חלב וכלי בשר בזה אחר זה
, בתוך כלי
גדול

The Laws of Koshering Vessels for Pesach-Continued

We
have explained
that on Pesach one must use vessels and dishes
that have not absorbed Chametz, meaning either new vessels (or vessels
designated specially for Pesach use) or vessels that have been koshered for
Pesach. Usually, the way to kosher a vessel is in the same manner it is
normally used.

Regarding plates and bowls that hot foods are placed in but are not used as a
real “Keli Rishon” (i.e. a vessel with boiling hot liquid directly on the fire
or heat source), meaning that when food is placed in them, it is usually dished
out of another pot (and this pot was the “Keli Rishon” where the water was
actually boiled), their koshering process is in the way it is used, i.e.
through pouring boiling water on them from a “Keli Rishon” (for instance, from
an electric kettle that water was boiled in). Certainly, these items may be
koshered through “Hag’ala,” meaning immersing them into boiling water in a
“Keli Rishon” where the water was boiled.

Regarding pans that are used to fry Chametz foods in oil, the is a disagreement
in the Poskim whether it can be halachically considered like a pot that Chametz
foods are cooked in and Hag’ala will be sufficient or since not much liquid is
used to fry foods in it, it should have the halachic
status of skewers which require “Libun,” torching with fire. The custom of
Sephardic Jewry is that Hag’ala is sufficient for frying pans, while the
Ashkenazim customarily require Libun with fire for these pans. Maran Rabbeinu
Ovadia Yosef zt”l
writes that even according to the Ashkenazi custom, it is not necessary to fire
up the pan to such a degree that it turns red-hot; rather, a light Libun, i.e.
that it becomes hot enough from the fire that if a straw would come in contact
with the pan it would burn, is sufficient.

Any vessels not used with hot foods or liquids, such as silver goblets,
refrigerators, and freezers, do not require any koshering and a thorough
cleaning is sufficient.

Vessels made of pottery are unable to be koshered; even if they were to be
torched with fire very well, they would remain in their forbidden state.
According to Maran Ha’Shulchan Aruch, glass vessels need no koshering and
washing it well will be sufficient. However, Ashkenazim customarily act
stringently regarding glass vessels. Even according to the custom of the
Sephardim, porcelain vessels are treated as pottery and cannot be koshered.

It is preferable, wherever possible, to perform Hag’ala on vessels needing koshering
only after they have not been used for twenty-four hours. It is permissible to
perform Hag’ala on meat and dairy vessels one after another when the Hag’ala is
being done in a large pot.

This Shabbat 

is

Shabbat Parah

by Rabbi Eli Mansour


Shabbat Parah- The Shabbat After Purim

On the Shabbat immediately following Purim, we take
a second Torah scroll from the ark and read from it the section known as
"Parashat Para." Parashat Para, which tells of the laws of the Para
Aduma (the red heifer, whose ashes were used to sprinkle on those who had
become ritually impure), is the opening section of Parashat Chukat, until the
words, "Ve'ha'nefesh Ha'noga'at Titma Ad Ha'arev" (Bamidbar 19:1-22).

Tosefot in Masechet Berachot (13) write that the annual reading of Parashat
Para constitutes a Torah obligation; this is mentioned by other Rishonim
(Medieval Talmudists), as well, including the Rashba (Spain, 1235-1310), the
Ritva (Spain, 1250-1330) and Terumat Ha'deshen (Rabbi Yisrael Isserlin,
Germany-Austria, 1390-1460). The Shulchan Aruch indeed records this position.

Later writers have raised the question of where the Torah introduces such an
obligation. If, indeed, this reading is required according to Torah law, this
requirement must have a clear Biblical source. The work "Yalkut
Ha'gershuni" suggests that this reading is obligated by force of the
Torah's admonition to recall the unfortunate incident of the sin of the golden calf
(Devarim 9:7). As this incident marks a very sad moment in our nation's
history, we prefer not to read the actual narrative of the golden calf, and we
instead read about the Para Aduma, which serves to atone for the sin of the
golden calf. Indeed, the Sages describe the cow used for this ritual as the
mother that comes to clean the mess made by her daughter, the calf. Thus, the
reading of the Para Aduma section fulfills the Torah obligation to recall the
incident of the golden calf.

Others, however, have questioned this explanation. If this is the obligation we
seek to fulfill, we can just as easily do so on the Shabbat when we read
Parashat Ki Tisa, which contains the narrative of the golden calf. On this
Shabbat we could instruct the congregation to have in mind while listening to
this reading to fulfill the Torah obligation of remembering the incident of the
golden calf. Rather than instituting a special reading, we could fulfill this
requirement through the standard, scheduled reading of Parashat Ki Tisa. Furthermore,
when all is said and done, the Sages speak of the Para Aduma ritual as a Chok –
a Mitzva whose underlying rationale eludes human comprehension. It is therefore
difficult to claim that this Mitzva serves solely as atonement for the sin of
the golden calf.

The Aruch Ha'shulchan (Rabbi Yechiel Epstein of Nevardok, Bielorussia
1829-1888) suggests a different Biblical source of the obligation to read
Parashat Para. The Torah instructs in this section, "Ve'hayeta Lachem
Le'chukat Olam" – that this law "shall be for you an eternal
statute." The Torah here requires that we observe this law
"eternally," despite the fact that this Mitzva of purifying oneself
with the ashes of Para Aduma applies only when the Temple stands. The Aruch Ha'shulchan
therefore suggests that the Torah here refers to an obligation to verbally
recall this process by reading the relevant section in the Torah, even when
practically the ritual cannot be performed.

In any event, other scholars claimed that the reading of Parashat Para originates
from Chazal (the Sages), and is not required by Torah law. Some even claim that
Tosefot did not, in fact, cast this requirement as a Torah obligation. This
theory contends that Tosefot had written the abbreviation "Peh-Peh,"
referring to "Parashat Purim," the section read on Purim telling of
the battle with Amalek, with which one can fulfill the Torah obligation to
recall Amalek's hostility. Later editors mistakenly understood the abbreviation
as referring to "Parashat Para," and therefore reached the erroneous
conclusion that Tosefot viewed this reading as a Torah obligation. However,
this theory is difficult to accept in light of the fact that numerous other
Rishonim, as mentioned above, side with Tosefot on this matter. It is hard to
imagine that they were all misled by a printing error.

Are women included in the obligation of Parashat Para?

Presumably, this would depend on the two sources mentioned above. According to
the "Yalkut Ha'gershuni," as we have seen, we read Parashat Para to
recall the incident of the golden calf. If so, then women, who did not take
part in the worship of the golden calf, should be excluded from this
obligation. According to the Aruch Ha'shulchan, however, who explained that
this reading fulfills the obligation of eternally remembering the Para Aduma
purification ritual, it should apply equally to women, who are likewise
required to undergo purification through the process of the Para Aduma.

Therefore, women should endeavor to come to the synagogue to hear the reading
of Parashat Para. If this presents a problem given their domestic
responsibilities, they may remain at home.

It should also be noted that the highest-quality Torah scroll available should
be used for this reading, since according to many it constitutes a Torah
obligation.

Summary: There is a difference of opinion as to whether the reading of Parashat
Para on the Shabbat following Purim constitutes a Torah obligation, or was
ordained by the Rabbis. Women should make an effort to come to the synagogue
for this reading unless it poses considerable difficulty, and the
highest-quality Torah scroll should be used for this reading.

  5. How many ingredients comprise the incense of the Mishkan?
    30:34 – Eleven ingredients were used making the incense.
  6. According to Rashi, why are sailors called "malachim?"
    30:35 – Because they stir (malach) the water with their oars.
  7. What is the difference between chochma (wisdom), bina (understanding), and da'at (knowledge)?
    31:3 – Chochma is knowledge acquired from others. Bina is the deduction of new knowledge from what one has already learned. Da'at is holy inspiration.
  8. Shabbat is a "sign." What does it signify?

    32:5 – He hoped that by building it by himself it would take longer and in the interim Moshe would return.
  13. Why did Moshe break the Tablets?
    32:19 – Moshe reasoned: If the Torah forbids those who have estranged themselves from the Torah to partake in even a single commandment (Pesach sacrifice), surely the entire Torah cannot be given to a whole nation which has estranged itself from G-d!
  14. How can two brothers belong to two different tribes?
    32:27 – Half-brothers, sharing the same mother.
  15. Why did Moshe ask that his name be erased from the Torah?

    33:2 – The seventh nation, the Girgashites, voluntarily emigrated.
  18. How did G-d show that He forgave the Jewish People?
    33:14 – He agreed to let His Shechina dwell among them.

  20. How do the light rays shining from Moshe's face show us the powerful effect of sin?
    34:35 – Before the sin of the golden calf, the people would not have been afraid to look at the light rays, but after the sin they were afraid.

Halachot from Maran Rabbi Ovadia Yosef Ztz'l   

זהירות בעניני חמץ

———————————————–
אנו עומדים סמוך לימי
הפסח הבאים עלינו לטובה, ולכן נתחיל לבאר הלכות פסח, על פי מה שכתבנו בזה בשנים
קודמות, ובתוספת נוסף
.
———————————————–

איסור אכילת והנאה מן החמץ 
נאמר בתורה (שמות יג) לענין ימי חג
הפסח "מצות יאכל את שבעת הימים, ולא יראה לך חמץ ולא יראה לך שאור בכל גבולך
".

ובגמרא במסכת פסחים (דף כא: ועוד), למדו רבותינו
ממדרש הפסוקים, שהחמץ בפסח אסור באכילה
,
וכמו כן הוא אסור בהנאה, שאפילו אם
הוא אינו אוכל מן החמץ בפסח, אסור לו למכור את החמץ לגוי וכיוצא בזה, מפני שהוא
נהנה במכירה זו. וכל האוכל חמץ בפסח ענשו כרת
.

חמץ בפסח – אפילו באלף אינו בטל
כל כך חמור איסור חמץ בפסח, עד כדי
כך, שחמץ שנתערב עם מאכלים אחרים, אפילו באלף לא בטל, מה שאין כן בשאר איסורים
.

ולדוגמא באיסור אכילת דם, שאם נפל גרם אחד של דם
לקדירה עם תבשיל, אם יש בתבשיל ששים גרם של היתר כנגד הדם, הרי הדם בטל בתוכו
("בטל בששים"), והתבשיל מותר. ואילו חמץ בפסח אם יש אלף כנגדו, כגון
פירור לחם בתוך סיר גדול עם התבשיל, הכל אסור באכילה מפני אותו פירור של חמץ
שנתערב שם
.

לכן יש להזהר מאד בעניני חמץ בפסח, לקנות אך ורק
מצרכי מזון שאין בהם כל חשש תערובת חמץ
,
ושנמצאו תחת השגחה אחראית. וכן אין
לסמוך על אדם שאינו יהודי שומר תורה ומצוות, כשאומר על מאכל מסוים שאין בו חשש
חמץ, וכגון שמעיד על תבלין מסוים שאין בו שום תערובת וכדומה, וכפי שכבר הוכח בעבר,
שאנשים נכשלו באיסור חמץ משום שסמכו על החנווני בשעה שאין לו כל נאמנות. וכתב מרן
רבינו עובדיה יוסף זצ"ל, שנכון שלא לקנות שום תוצרת המיועדת לפסח בלי הכשר על
כל מוצר לחג הפסח, וכן הדין אף בדברים שנראה שאין בהם חשש, כגון ליקר, אראק
, וכדומה. ובזמנינו אפילו במוצרים הנראים הכי
"תמימים", יש חששות רציניים מבחינת כשרות במשך כל ימות השנה, ובפרט
בימות הפסח, כי בכל מוצר מעורבים הרבה מאד חומרים מחומרים שונים, והדברים ידועים
.

כלים הבלועים מחמץ
אסור להשתמש בפסח בכלים שמשתמשים
בהם בכל ימות השנה, שהרי הם בלועים מחמץ
, מכיון שבזמן
שתבשיל חם נמצא בתוך הכלי, הרי דפנות הכלי בולעות ממנו טעם חמץ, (כשם שהן בולעות
טעם בשר או חלב), ולכן יש להשתמש בכלים מיוחדים לפסח
, שלא השתמשו בהם
למאכלי חמץ, או להכשיר את כלי החמץ לפסח. ובהלכה הבאות יבואר יותר
.

מקום שאדם מתארח בו
כשם שאדם צריך להזהר בתוך ביתו
לאכול אך ורק ממוצרים ומכלים הכשרים לפסח
, כמו כן עליו
להזהר בכל מקום שהוא אוכל שם, שיהיה כשר בתכלית. ולכן מי שהולך להתארח אצל חבירו
בחג הפסח, או שהוא מתארח בבית מלון, עליו לכלכל דרכיו במשפט, שלא יבא לידי מבוכה
שתגרום לו לאכול במקום שאינו ראוי לו, ויזהר מראש שלא להיות מוזמן למקום שאינו כשר
בתכלית, כדי שלא יבא ח"ו לידי מכשול
.

ומעשה היה ביהודי אחד, יקר יקרים, מעולי
הונגריה, שעלה לארץ ישראל לפני כששים שנה בערב פסח. בנו הנשוי, היה דר באחד
הישובים הדתיים, והוא הזמין את אביו לחג הפסח. שאל אותו אביו, האם עוד הנך מקפיד
כראוי על כל הלכות הפסח? השיב לו הבן, בודאי! נסעו האב עם רעייתו ושאר ילדיו
הרווקים אל הבן הנשוי. כבר בליל החג, ראה האב כי הלכות הפסח אינן מקויימות כראוי.
לכן, חדל לאכול שום דבר
,
מלבד מעט ירקות. ומיד במוצאי החג
הראשון, אמר לאשתו ומשפחתו, אין אני נשאר כאן אפילו רגע אחד. אמרו לו, והלא אין
תחבורה בשעה כזו! אמר להם אני איני נשאר אפילו רגע אחד, והלך ברגל שלוש שעות, עד
שהגיע לתחנת אוטובוס, וחזר לירושלים בצער גדול, כי בנו אינו זהיר כראוי בהלכות
החג. וממנו למדו כל המשפחה, ותיקנו מעשיהם
.

Caution
Regarding Chametz Issues

————————————————

Since we are nearing the holiday of Pesach and the laws of Pesach are quite
vast, we will begin to review the primary laws of this holiday based on what we
have written in previous years in addition to some new insights.
————————————————

 The Prohibition to Eat Chametz
The Torah (Shemot 13) states regarding the holiday of Pesach: “Matzot shall be
eaten for seven days; neither leaven nor sourdough shall be seen in your
borders.”

Our Sages taught in Masechet Pesachim (21b among other
places) through expounding certain verses that not only is Chametz prohibited
for consumption on Pesach, it is also forbidden to benefit from Chametz on
Pesach, meaning that even if one does not actually eat Chametz on Pesach, he
still may not sell it to a non-Jew and the like on Pesach for this would mean
that he is benefitting from this sale. Consumption of Chametz on Pesach is
punishable by Karet (severance of one’s soul from the Jewish nation).

Chametz on Pesach Cannot Even be Nullified by a Ratio of
One to One-Thousand

The prohibition of Chametz on Pesach is so severe that if Chametz gets mixed
into other foods, it cannot be nullified even by a ratio of one to one
thousand, which is not the case regarding other prohibitions.

For instance, regarding the prohibition of consuming
blood, if one gram of blood falls into a pot of food, if there are sixty grams
of food present against the one gram of blood that fell into it, the blood is
considered nullified and this food is permitted for consumption. Regarding
Chametz on Pesach, however, even if the food present is one thousand times the
amount of the Chametz that fell into it, for instance if a tiny crumb of
Chametz falls into a large pot of food, the entire pot of food becomes
prohibited for consumption because of the crumb of Chametz that became mixed
into it.

Therefore, one must be extremely careful regarding
Chametz on Pesach to buy only food products that one is completely certain do
not contain Chametz mixtures and are certified by a reliable Kashrut
organization. Similarly, one should not rely on a non-Torah-observant Jew when
he tells him that a certain food does not contain any Chametz, for instance if
he says that a certain spice does not have any Chametz mixed into it, for it
has already occurred that some people have transgressed the prohibition of
Chametz because they had relied on a grocer with no believability. Maran Harav
Ovadia Yosef Shlit”a writes that it is proper for one not to purchase any food
product designated for Pesach use without a reliable Kosher for Passover
certification on every single item. The same applies even to things that do not
seem problematic such as liquor, Arack, and the like. Nowadays, even products
that look “innocent” pose major Kashrut problems during the rest of the year
and especially during Pesach, as all products contain a multitude of ingredients,
as we all know.

Dishes Which Have Absorbed Chametz

One may not use the same dishes that he uses during the rest of the year on
Pesach, for these dishes have Chametz absorbed in them since when a hot food is
inside these dishes, the walls of these dishes absorb its Chametz flavor, just
as they absorb dairy or meat flavor. Thus, one must either use dishes that are
specially designated for Pesach that have not been used for Chametz or kosher
(make kosher for Pesach) his Chametz dishes. This will be better explained in
following Halachot.

When One is a Guest

Just as one must take care to eat food that is Kosher for Pesach and from
dishes and utensils that are Kosher for Pesach in his home, one must also take
care that anywhere else he eats is absolutely kosher. Thus, if one is staying
as a guest in his friend’s home or in a hotel for Pesach, he must think this
through beforehand in a tedious manner so that a tumultuous situation does not
arise that will cause him to eat in an unworthy place. One should be very
careful in advance not to be invited to a place that is not absolutely kosher
so as not to, G-d forbid, transgress any prohibitions.  

An incident once occurred approximately sixty years ago
when a righteous Hungarian Jew immigrated to Israel on Erev Pesach. His married
son lived in a religious settlement and invited his father to join them for the
Pesach holiday. His father asked him, “Are you careful regarding the laws of
Pesach?” The son replied, “Certainly!” The father travelled with his wife and
unmarried children to spend the holiday together with his married son. On the
first night of Pesach, the father was already able to tell that the laws of
Pesach were not being observed adequately. He therefore did not eat anything
besides for some vegetables. Immediately upon the conclusion of the first Yom
Tov of Pesach, the father exclaimed to his wife, “I refuse to stay here for
even one extra second!” They told him, “But there is no public transportation
at this hour!” The father once again reiterated, “I shall not stay here for
even one moment.” He then proceeded to walk for three hours to the nearest bus
stop at which point he boarded a bus to Jerusalem, saddened that his son did
not observe the laws of Pesach properly. The rest of the family learned from their
father’s actions and mended their ways.

THIS Shabbat is 
Shabbat ZACHOR

Liturgy (Piyutim)

On certain
occasions piyutim are chanted during pesuqé dezimra:

On Shabat
Shira and the Seventh Day of Pesah the piyut "Ashira
keShirat Moshé
" is sung before Shirat haYam (The Song on the
Sea).

On Shabat
Zakhor
the piyut "Mi Khamokha" is chanted during Nishmat.

On Rosh
haShana
and Yom Kipur special piyutim are chanted after Shirat
haYam,
before Yishtabah, and between Yishtabah
and the Qadish. 

 

The
minhag of inserting piyutim into the prayers is actually quite ancient,
dating back at least to the times of Ribi Yehuda haLevi (c. 1000-1100 CE) who
penned the piyut "Mi Khamokha" for Shabat Zakhor
and instituted its recital in the middle of Nishmat Kol Hai.
Several Rishonim, among them the Ri miGash (d. 1141), the Rashba (d. 1310), and
the Radbaz (d. 1573), attest that this was the custom in their time, showing no
sign of disapproval. Nevertheless, this custom was met with sharp, repeated
critique by later halakhic authorities, all challenging the halakhic
basis for this custom, as it constitutes a forbidden interruption (hefseq)
in the prayers.

 

Though
Maran instructs in the Shulhan 'Arukh (O"H §68:1) that it
is best to refrain from including liturgy in the Blessings of Qeriat Shema',
he makes no mention of adding liturgy in Pesuqé deZimra. The determining
factor for allowing liturgy in Pesuqé deZimra is whether or not there
exists a prohibition to add praises or Tehilim to those instituted by the Sages
as Pesuqé deZimra. The Hida in Tub 'Ayin (§18:35) cites
the opinion of Ribi David Hayim Corinaldi in this matter, denouncing the
practice of those who reserved the recital of liturgy intended for Pesuqé
deZimra
(e.g. Ribi Yehuda haLevi's Mi Khamokha) until after the
repetition of the 'Amida; arguing that the Tur and Maran only took issue
with adding liturgy to the Blessings of Qeriat Shema'. The simple logic
behind Ribi Corinaldi's judgment seems to be that, since Pesuqé deZimra
were instituted as praises to G-d, additional praises, such as the piyutim,
should not be deemed an interruption therein. Still, the Hida rules that
liturgy may not be added to Pesuqé deZimra, explaining that these
praises were carefully arranged by the Sages in accordance with Qabala
and are thus strictly unchangeable.

Halachot from Maran Rabbi Ovadia Yosef Ztz'l    

מהלכות מקרא מגילה

כל אדם מישראל חייב בקריאת
המגילה ביום הפורים, וצריך לקרותה בלילה ולשוב ולקרותה ביום, שנאמר "אלהי,
אקרא יומם ולא תענה ולילה ולא דומיה לי". ופסוק זה נאמר בספר תהילים בפרק
"למנצח על אילת השחר" ואמרו בגמרא (יומא כ"ט
.) שאסתר נמשלה לאיילת השחר. ולכן מפרק זה אנו למדים
לענין המגילה שנכתבה על ידי אסתר המלכה יחד עם מרדכי היהודי, והם שתקנו לנו לקרותה
בימי הפורים
.

ומכל מקום מכיון שאין הכל
בקיאים בקריאת המגילה, וגם לא לכולם יש מגילה כשרה כתובה על גבי קלף, לכן אנו
נוהגים לצאת ידי חובת קריאת המגילה מדין "שומע כעונה", כלומר, מי ששומע
קריאת מגילה ממי שקורא אותה מתוך מגילה כשרה, יוצא ידי חובת הקריאה כאילו הוא קרא
בעצמו. לכן קורא השליח ציבור מתוך מגילה כשרה, והוא מכוין להוציא את כלל הציבור
ידי חובת הקריאה, וגם הציבור כולו צריכים לכוין לצאת ידי חובה בקריאתו, והרי זה
כמו שהם קוראים בעצמם ממש
.

ואין חילוק בין האנשים לנשים
לענין חיוב שמיעת קריאת המגילה, כי אף הנשים חייבות בקריאה זו כדין הנשים, שאף הן
היו באותו נס ההצלה שבימי מרדכי ואסתר, ועוד שהנס נעשה על יד אשה, היא אסתר. ואף
על פי שבקצת מקומות נהגו שהנשים אינן שומעות מקרא מגילה אלא בלילה, אבל ביום לא
היו שומעות. אין לנהוג כן, ומצוה לבטל מנהג זה שאין לו כל יסוד בהלכה, ובודאי
הונהג על ידי עמי הארץ שבאותם המקומות. וישתקע הדבר ולא יאמר. (טבעת המלך
).

בעת קריאת המגילה אסור לדבר
בשום עניין עד לאחר הברכה שבסוף קריאת המגילה. ואם השומע את הקריאה עבר ודיבר
דברים אחרים בעוד שהקורא ממשיך בקריאתו, לא יצא ידי חובתו, ודינו כדין מי שלא שמע
חלק מקריאת המגילה וכפי שיבואר להלן
.

צריך לדקדק היטב בקריאת המגילה,
ובפרט יש להזהר בזה בזמן ששומעים את השליח ציבור קורא במגילה, שלא לאבד אף מילה
אחת מן הקריאה במגילה, משום שלדעת רבים מהפוסקים, (ומהם הרשב"א והר"ן
ועוד), אם חיסר תיבה (מילה) אחת מהמגילה לא יצא ידי חובתו
.

ומכל מקום אם קרה לאדם שמחמת
איזה רעש וכדומה לא שמע כמה מילים מקריאת המגילה
, יכול לקרות את אותן המילים מתוך המגילה שבידו, אפילו
אם היא אינה מגילה כשרה אלא מגילה מודפסת, ויזדרז בקריאתו וימשיך עד מקום שהשליח
ציבור קורא בו, ואז ישתוק וימשיך לשמוע הקריאה מפי השליח ציבור. (ויוצא בזה ידי
חובתו
, כל זמן
ששמע לפחות את רוב קריאת המגילה מפי השליח ציבור, ורק מיעוט המגילה קרא בעצמו מתוך
המגילה המודפסת אשר בידו
).

אסור לאכול קודם קריאת המגילה,
ולפיכך, נשים שאינן יכולות לבוא בזמן התפילה לבית הכנסת לשמוע קריאת המגילה,
וממתינות עד שיחזרו האנשים מבית הכנסת, ורק אחר כך הן שומעות קריאת המגילה, צריכות
להזהר ביום פורים בבוקר, שלא לאכול עד אשר תשמענה בעצמן את קריאת המגילה. ומכל
מקום מותר לשתות קפה או תה או לטעום פירות קודם קריאת המגילה. וכן מותר לאכול אף
עוגה או פת פחות משיעור כביצה (שהוא שיעור חמישים וששה גרמים
).

והמחמירים שלא לטעום כלום קודם
מקרא מגילה, תבוא עליהם הברכה

Some Laws Regarding Megillah Reading

Every person in the Jewish
nation is obligated to read the Megillah on the day of Purim. One must read it
during the night and consequently read it again the next day, as the verse
states, “My G-d, I call out to you during the day and you do not answer; during
the night I have no rest.” This verse is written in the chapter of Tehillim
(Psalms) called “Lamnatze’ach al Ayelet HaShachar” and the Gemara in Yoma (29a)
refers to Queen Esther as the “Ayelet HaShachar”. Therefore, we learn out laws
from this chapter regarding the Megillah which was co-authored by Mordechai the
Righteous and Queen Esther since they were the ones to institute the reading of
the Megillah on the day of Purim.

However, since not everyone is an expert in Megillah reading along with the
fact that not everyone owns a kosher Megillah written on parchment, we
customarily fulfill our obligation of Megillah reading through the law of “one
who hears is like one who recites”. This means that one who hears another
reading from a kosher Megillah fulfills his obligation and it is as though he
has read the Megillah himself. Therefore, when the Chazzan reads from a kosher
Megillah while having in mind to read on behalf of the congregation and the
congregation has in mind to fulfill their own obligation as well, it is
considered as if they have actually read the Megillah on their own.

There is no distinction between men and women regarding the obligation to hear
Megillah reading, for women are just as obligated as men are since women were saved
in the same miracle during the days of Mordechai and Esther, in addition to the
fact that the miracle of Purim was brought about through a woman, namely, Queen
Esther. Although in some places it was customary for women to hear Megillah
reading only during the night but not during the day, one should not follow
this custom; this custom, which has no Halachic basis, should be nullified as
it was surely started by ignorant people. (Taba’at HaMelech)

During the time when the Megillah is being read, one may not interrupt by
speaking at all until after the blessing at the conclusion of the Megillah
reading has been recited. One who did indeed speak during Megillah reading
while the Chazzan carries on with the reading of the Megillah does not fulfill
his obligation, and his status is like one who missed a portion of the Megillah
reading, as will be explained later on.

One should listen carefully to the reading of the Megillah and one should
exercise special care not to miss hearing even one word from the reading of the
Megillah, for according to many Poskim (including the Rashba, Ran, and others),
if one misses hearing even one word of the Megillah, he has not fulfilled his
obligation.

However, if it happens that one missed hearing a few words of the Megillah
because of noise and the like, one may read those words from inside the
Megillah he is holding, even if it is not a kosher Megillah; rather, even if it
is a printed one, one should quickly read the words he missed until he reaches
the place where the Chazzan is currently reading, at which point he should once
again remain silent and listen to the Chazzan’s reading. (One will
satisfactorily fulfill his obligation as long as he has heard most of the
Megillah reading from the Chazzan and he has only read a minority of it on his
own from the printed Megillah in his hands).

One may not eat before Megillah reading. Therefore, those women who do not come
to hear Megillah at the time the congregation is praying in the synagogue and
wait for their husbands to come home from synagogue and only then do they go to
hear Megillah reading should be careful not to eat anything on Purim day until
they hear Megillah reading themselves. However, they may in fact drink tea or
coffee or taste some fruit before hearing Megillah reading. Similarly, one may
also partake of some cake or even some bread less than a Kebeitza (egg’s
volume, approximately 56 grams).

Those who are careful not to taste anything before Megillah reading are
especially praiseworthy
