TorahTalk Meaningful Mitzvah Podcast
Listen along as Rabbi Menashe Uhr explores the topic of Mitzvos with two special guests - Shlomi and Mellissa. The 3 come very very different Jewish backgrounds, and each bring their own perspectives (and questions!) to the table. The goal is to explore each Mitzvah, and discuss, analyze - and debate - the underlying themes and purpose of the Mitzvah. By understanding what the Mitzvah is really all about we hope to build a personal 'connection' to it, enabling us to perform the Mitzvos of Hashem with passion, excitement, and joy, enriching our lives and connecting us with our Creator. That's the goal, join us for the ride and let's see where this takes us!Send in your questions or comments by going to MitzvahPodcast.com Questions will be featured in special episodes dedicated to answering listener questions at the end of each topic!Please note - this podcast was formally known as the TorahTalk Parsha Podcast - it was changed to the TorahTalk Meaningful Mitzvah Podcast on December 6 when we changed the topic.

Episode 15
- Have you ever wondered why the Torah prohibits leavened bread and all Chometz items on Pesach?
- Why does this prohibition seem so intense, with many rules about getting rid of chometz and avoiding even a small amount?
- Why is there a Mitzvah to burn the Chometz before Passover?
- Why is it even forbidden to have chometz in my possession, even if I won't touch it!
We've learned how positive Mitzvos have a lot of depth and meaning beneath the surface. Listen to this episode and discover how even just avoiding the prohibition of Chometz can be incredibly fulfilling and bring you closer to Hashem!
