Hello Everyone,
I hope that your are all doing well during these trying times.
In tomorrow’s class , “What is Chametz?” we will discuss the question of whiskey on Pesach. “Chametz” in the Gemara is described as dough from specific grains which reacts in a particular fashion to a specific environmental factor ( for the details I invite you to listen to last week’s class).
But whiskey is a beverage so how did it become included in the category of chametz? We will see tomorrow how this came to be.
