Authorization To Sell Hametz Due
2021-03-25 09:00 - 09:15
We are commanded not to eat, see, or possess any “hametz” during Passover. Hametz, usually translated as “leaven,” is technically any one of the five biblical grain species – wheat, barley, rye, spelt, or oats – that has been in contact with water for more than 18 minutes. That’s why matzah is OK during Passover, but bread isn’t. Alas, beer and whiskey, with rare exceptions, are made from these grains, so they are not kosher for Passover. So that we don’t have hametz in our possession, we put any hametz we want to put away for Passover in a separate space, and we sell it to a non-Jew for the duration of the holiday. To sell your hametz fill out the form below. You can scan the form or just send the information requested in the form to ashley@h-nt.org no later than 9:15 AM on March 25th.
Instructions: you may fill out this form and scan it or take a picture of it and email it back to Ashley Rowland (ashley@h-nt.org) or just send the requested information in an email to Ashley.
I, __________________________________________________, hereby authorize Rabbi Jacob Herber to act as my agent to sell in my name and on my behalf, all hametz owned and possessed by me (knowingly or unknowingly), wherever it may be (at home, place of business, or elsewhere) in accordance with the requirements and provisions of Jewish law.
Name_____________________________________________________________________________________
Address (Home)_______________________________________________________________________________
Address (Business) _____________________________________________________________________________
The Torah prohibits the ownership of leaven during Passover; therefore requiring the most preparation of any holiday. The Rabbinic Assembly Passover Guide is intended to help families maintain a Pesahdik home according to the principles of Conservative Judaism and its understanding of Jewish Law.
With significant changes in the nature and manufacture of kitchen products and foodstuffs, new policies are required to maintain a Kosher-for-Passover kitchen. The full guide is available at: https://www.rabbinicalassembly.org/story/pesah-guide-5781-0
I enclose $ ________ for the Maot Hittim (checks may be made out to Herzl-Ner Tamid). Please mail this form to the synagogue office so it arrives no later than Thursday, March 25th.
