Class description

How do you check the house for hamets on the night before Pesach?

We will focus on the practice of distributing ten pieces of hamets around the house and then searching for them.

As with every other tiny corner of halacha, study of this issue will reveal fundamental principles that are important through the length and breadth of Torah.

Source materials are available through the link. In class we will translate and explain these sources.
