Ep. 15 | The Prohibition of Chometz on Passover

Rabbi Menashe Uhr 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!
