    THE FREEDOM OF A NATION THE LAWS OF PASSOVER (SEPHARDIC) RABBI GABRIEL COHEN Pessah 5771 / 2011 v11.03 1 WCRC בד"צ WEST COAST RABBINICAL COURT OF BEVERLY HILLS. BET DIN-Rabbi Gabriel Cohen Rav”D This RABBINICAL COURT is a respected and accepted BET DIN worldwide. It was founded in 1983 with the encouragement of the Chief Rabbis of Israel. We have our own ordained, efficient, honourable and respected staff to do all services offered, including Gittin (Jewish Divorces). Our staff includes members of all denominations: Chassidim, Ashkenazim, and Sephardim. Every organization, Rabbi, and community leader endorses our genuine work. GITTIN, JEWISH DIVORCES: Our policy is to help anyone in need, an Agunah or an Agun finalize his or her divorce anywhere in the world. We are local and we use strictly local rabbis thus we are able to supervise and follow up. We perform different services befitting the individual requesting them. For example with Ashkenazim we do an Ashkenazi Get, and with Sephardim we do a Sephardi Get as required by Halacha, by the Gedolei Hador. TEUDAT RAVAKUT, MARRIAGE, COUNSELING certificate of Jewish status, certificate of marital status, translations from many languages, and replacement of lost, ruined or faulty Ketubot are among our services. CIRCUMCISION: By certified Mohalim banning the use of a clamp. FINANCIAL ARBITRATION: Only Rabbis who actually hear the case firsthand from the parties involved are consulted to advise on the decision of the Bet Din. No matter how small or how large the claim is, it is dealt with in the same way. We strive to remain neutral and independent.

  • 0045 in 8193 05 Hilchot Shvitat Yom Tov R031 Draft 01
    Food on Yom Tov Ref: Sefer Zemanim, Hilchot Shvitat Yom Tov, Chapter 1–6 On the Yamim Tovim (Holidays) there is an obligation to rest as on Shabbat, but the laws are more lenient. This leniency mainly allows for work related to the preparation of food to be permissible. In addition, 2 other labours which are indirectly linked to food preparation are also allowed i.e. carrying and kindling a fire. s The Rabanim have been further lenient with the latter two labours by allowing activities even if they are not related to food preparation for example carrying books, keys, children etc. on Yom Tov. • Further, even other labours connected with food may be allowed e.g. slaughtering, kneading, baking etc. However, if it was equally possible to do these labours before Yom Tov, then it is forbidden to do these on Yom Tov (because the labours are arduous and will detract from the joy of Yom Tov) In contrast carrying items which could have been prepared before Yom Tov is allowed because the work is not arduous and it adds to the joy of Yom Tov. Similarly, it is forbidden to bake or cook on Yom Tov for eating after Yom Tov. • Bathing and anointing are labours which have also been given leniency for Yom Tov but one may not wash one’s entire body, and one can use hot water. • “Muktzeh” (something set aside for another purpose) and “nolad” (something newly created) is forbidden on Yom Tov. An example of “muktzeh” is an apple that one plans on selling.

  • Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale Guide to Tefillah and Halachic Times
    Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale Guide to Tefillah and Halachic Times Thursday, May 28th; 5th of Sivan Erev Shavuot Candle lighting 7:49p Mincha 7:55p Sunset 8:07p Nightfall: 8:46p Eruv Tavshilin should be prepared. This year, Shavuot occurs on Friday and Shabbat. We are not generally allowed to prepare on one day of a holiday for another day. However, the Rabbis permitted preparing food for Shabbat on Erev Shabbat, provided an Eruv Tavshilin is made in advance. Through the process of Eruv Tavshilin, one actually begins Shabbat preparations on Erev Yom Tov, i.e. Thursday. An Eruv Tavshilin is made on Thursday in order to permit cooking on Friday for Shabbat. An Eruv Tavshilin consists of bread (or matzah) and a cooked food such as fish, meat or a hardboiled egg. The head of the house or any other member of the household takes the plate with the cooked food and the bread or matzah (preferably in the right hand) and says: ברוך אתה ה' אלקינו מלך העולם אשר קדשנו במצותיו וצונו על מצות ערוב We then recite the Eruv Tavshilin text (in Aramaic or English) בהדין עירובא יהא שרא לנא לאפויי ולבשולי ולאטמוני ולאדלוקי שרגא ולאפוקי ולמעבד כל צרכנא מיומא טבא לשבתא “By virtue of this Eruv, we (the members of the household) shall be permitted to cook, bake, keep food warm, carry, light candles and do all preparations on Yom Tov (i.e. Friday) for Shabbat.” Even though the Eruv is made, the food for Shabbat must be fully cooked before Shabbat begins and should preferably be prepared early on Friday, while there is still much of the day left, rather than leaving the preparations for the last minute.

  • PASSOVER April, 1991
    \ ins min LINCOLN SQUARE SYNAGOGUE BULLETIN Nisan 5751 - Volume 26, No. 5 PASSOVER April, 1991 A GUIDE TO THE LAWS OF PESACH I. ABOUT CHAMETZ A. The Prohibition The prohibition against Chametz on Pesach is found in the Torah. It commands every Jew: a. not to eat or drink it, b. not to own it, c. not to possess it. The prohibition applies to even the slightest amount of such Chametz because of the harshness of the penalty prescribed by the Torah — excision, or because of the fact that Chametz is permissible after Pesach — there can be no nullification during Pesach. The Rabbinic prohibition extends to the use even after Pesach of Chametz which belonged to a Jew during Pesach. For this reason, Jewish bakeries and other food stores which do not sell their Chametz before Pesach should not be patronized for approximately a month after the holiday so that no Chametz product which belonged to them during Pesach would be consumed even afterwards. However, this prohibition applies only to products which are in the category of Chametz B'ein (see below). B. The Forms of Chametz 1. Chametz B'ein — Pure Chametz — The combination of any of the five grains mentioned in the Torah (wheat, barley, rye, oats and spelt), or any of their derivatives (such as flour) with water or moisture for a period of eighteen minutes during which the mixture is not stirred, results in Chametz. (This process, described in the Talmud in terms of its appearance, is not identical with the process of fermentation. Chametz appears to be an arbitrarily defined state, not a scientifically definable condition.) Thus, included in this category are bread, cakes and pastries, beer, grain alcohol, and even matzah which was not specially prepared for Passover use.
