	Halakhot of Pesah
		One who was planning to be away all Pesah and sold the hametz in his home without making bedikah and unexpectedly returned must search for and gather the sold hametz that was not put away and place it in a closed off or out-of-the-way location.
		Hametz mixed into non-hametz substances during Pesah is not annulled in the manner that issur is annulled all year long, such as one in sixty.
		Thus, foods prepared before Pesah that are known to be kosher all year long, that do not have hametz as an ingredient, even were they to have a minor amount of hametz mixed in and annulled before Pesah, are acceptable during Pesah.

		Pesah acknowledges the universal human yearning for freedom and expresses compassion for all the people in the world who are not free.

		But the charm and attraction of Pesah is not limited to its ideas--however powerful and compelling they may be.
		Pesah also entices through its central ritual, the Seder meal--when the warmth of gathered family and friends, good food, festive songs, and colorful pageantry combine into an emotional and edible feast.
		Pesah develops three principal themes (as do the two other biblical festivals of Shavuot and Sukkot): agricultural, historical, and religious/spiritual. These three themes develop in unique ways, blending and enriching each other to produce holidays that are each quite distinct.

		There are four possible ways to kasher for Pesah : (1) Hagalah -immersion in boiling water; (2) Libun -purification by flame by turning the metal white-hot (such as with a blowtorch, used to clean items like broilers and barbecues); (3) Irui -pouring boiling water over the surface; and (4) Milui v'irui -soaking in cold water.
		In addition, we are not allowed to derive any benefit from any mixtures of cooked meat and dairy, so we need to be sure that the food we give the pet is not forbidden because of mixtures of milk and meat.
		It used to be that frozen veggies were quite good for Pesah, but that has ceased to be the case due to the fact that most vegetable processors now cook all manner of hametz in the same retorts in which the vegetables are cooked.

		Pesah begins on a Motzaei Shabbat this year, and therefore some changes will need to be made in the search and removal of hametz.
		According to Halakhah, when eating a large quantity of what would otherwise be considered mezonot (cake), particularly when it is the basis of the meal (as bread is normally), we are permitted to say hamotzi.
		The other alternatives are to either sell or give your pet to a non-Jewish friend for Pesah, or alter their diet to include no hametz during Pesah.

		Pesah is the first day of Hagh HaMassot - a seven-day long festival commemorating the freedom of the Jewish people from bondage in Egypt.
		The term Pesah means "Passover", referring to the Angel of Death passing over the Jewish homes marked with lamb's blood and killing only the first born sons of the Egyptians, including the Pharoah's son.
		The death of the first born of Egypt was the turning point in his letting the Jewish people go free after a series of ten plagues brought upon Egypt by God.

		But if she went back home to celebrate the first Pesah with her parents after she had gotten married (apparently new brides were accustomed to doing so), and both her husband and her father had her in mind when they slaughtered the lamb, she may eat with whichever one of the two havurot she chooses.
		The reason for this pointed response is that R. Elazar, a Palestinian rabbi of the third century CE, declared that anyone who is obligated to abide by the restrictions of Pesah is similarly obligated to engage in the positive ritual acts.
		Since women are prohibited from eating leavened food on Pesah, they are therefore required to eat matzoh.

		Milk bought before Pesah does not require rabbinical supervision, and may be used on Pesah.
		The problems with milk involve indirect contact with or benefit from hametz, which may, in such cases, be "nullified" before Pesah but not during the holiday.
		However, since the kitniyot food will presumably not have rabbinical supervision for Pesah, and for general esthetic reasons, one may want to use special dishes (not Pesah and not hametz) for this purpose.

		For as long as twenty years, there can be no occurrences of Erev Pesah on Shabbat, and then two or three will occur in relatively close proximity.
		Since, generally, the definition of a meal for Shabbat purposes (and certainly for the first two meals) is a meal with bread or some other food that requires the blessing of hamotsi, the confluence of these factors forces us to make some decisions as to how to handle the situation.
		The Torah demands that we remove all hamets from our possession before the advent of Pesah (and even, according to at least some authorities before midday, after which one was allowed to bring the Pesah sacrifice).
