Chametz- חמץ

Some material borrowed from  Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chametz, also Chometz, ametz, Khhhhoooometz and other spellings from Hebrew: חָמֵץ / חמץ‎‎ are leavened foods that are forbidden on the Jewish holiday of Passover. According to Jewish law (don’t call it “a tradition”) Jews may not own, eat or benefit from chametz during Passover. This law appears several times in the Torah; the punishment for eating chametz on Passover is the divine punishment of kareth (being cut off from the greater Jewish Community), one of the more severe levels of punishment in Judaism.

Chametz is a product that is both made from one of five types of grain, and has been combined with water and left to stand raw for longer than eighteen minutes.  From the Torah, the five specific species of grain become chametz after wetting are wheat, barley, spelt, rye and oats.  Yeast and Sourdough starters are also forbidden on Passover.

 


WHEAT  is a grain.  You’ve probably eaten some in the past 24 hours.


SPELT is an ancient grain,  related to wheat. You can get matza made out of Spelt and it tastes like… matza.

 

 RYE is related to both wheat and barley. It is used with flour to make rye bread,  and is also used in making whiskey.


 BARLEY is a grain that has been eaten by people and animals for millennia. It is used for making beer as well.

 OATS are a grain that is used to  make oatmeal (hard to believe), breads,  granola,  beer and more. Some scholars say that oats are not what the Torah prohibits, but another kind of wheat no longer grown.


 YEAST is not necessary to make Chametz:  WATER, flour,  and time is all it takes.

 

The Torah has three commandments governing chametz during Passover:

-The “no-no-no!” status takes effect around late morning on the eve of Passover, or the 14th of the month of Nisan in the Jewish calendar. Chametz is permitted again from nightfall right after the final day of Passover. Those who participate in Judaism normally spend the days leading up to Passover cleaning and removing as much chametz from the house, or gathering it to one location for it to be sold  (not just locked away) for the duration of Passover.

Removal of chametz

In addition to the Biblical prohibition of owning chametz, there is also a positive commandment to remove it from one's possession.[6] There are three traditional methods of removing chametz:

·        Bi'ur: burning one's chametz.  On the night preceding the 14th of Nisan, a formal search of the house known as bedikat chametz ("search for chametz") is conducted by candlelight. The chametz found in this search is burned the next morning in a formal bi'ur ceremony. This ceremony is found in almost every decent Haggadah.

·         

·        Bittul: nullifying one's chametz. On the night and again on the morning of the 14th of Nissan, at the formal bedikah and bi'ur respectively, the head of the household recites an Aramaic statement nullifying all chametz remaining in the family's possession. The statements conclude that the chametz "shall be nullified and considered ownerless as the dust of the earth." Bittul must be done before the prohibition of chametz takes effect; once 40% of  day has passed on Passover eve, bittul is no longer an effective means of removal and any chametz one discovers must be destroyed

 

·        Mechirah: selling one's chametz. Until five-twelfths (42%) of the way through the day of Erev Pesach one may sell or give ones chametz to a non-Jew, and it is no longer ones responsibility. One who keeps the sold chametz in his or her household must seal it away so that it will not be visible during the holiday. After the holiday, the non-Jew generally sells the chametz back to the original owners, via the agent; however, he is under no obligation to do so.

It is considered best to use both bi'ur and bittul to remove one's chametz, even though either of these two methods is enough to fulfill one's biblical requirement to destroy one's chametz.[9] Mechirah, which averts the prohibition of ownership, is an alternative to destruction.

In most Jewish congregations, congregants sign up with the rabbi, assigning her or him as an agent to sell their chametz. This practice is convenient for the congregation and ensures that the sale is binding by both Jewish and local law. We do this at Anshe Emet too!

For chametz owned by the State of Israel, which includes its state companies, the prison service and the country's stock of emergency supplies, the Chief Rabbinate act as agent; since 1997, the Rabbinate has sold its chametz to Mr. Jaaber Hussein, a hotel manager residing in Abu Ghosh, who puts down a deposit of 20,000 shekels for chametz worth an estimated 150 million dollars.
