In Ask Away #36, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe opens with a heartfelt history of TORCH — from its roots in Project SEED visits in the early 1990s, founding by five Young Israel members in 1998, to its growth as an inclusive outreach organization bringing Torah to all Jews in Houston and recently across the globe. He emphasizes unity across Jewish streams (including warm relations with Reform, Conservative, Chabad, Reconstructionist, Orthodox) and the mission of fostering connection to Hashem.Practical halacha dominates: milk/meat mix-ups, kitniyot customs on Passover, Chametz in wells or mixtures before/during Pesach, Selling Chametz procedures, and using pre-Pesach-opened kosher-for-Pesach items. He explains daylight saving time has no effect on halachic times (which follow natural sun/stars). The session closes with a deep teaching on seeing Hashem in all events — including “hidden face” moments — as opportunities for growth, like olives yielding best oil when pressed.

The Torah prohibits us from eating or even owning Chametz, leavened grain products on Passover. However Ashkenazic Jews are careful not to eat any beans or legumes on the holiday. How did this custom begin? What is the reason for it? Why do many Saphardic Jews not keep it?A discussion about the laws of Passover and the development of the Kitniyot prohibition.(Please note, this was recorded over Zoom so the sound quality is weaker than normal)Have a Happy Passover!

Sermon by Rabbi Mo Salth, "Less Chametz – More Mensch!" April 3, 2026

Please support TORCH at GiveTORCH.net. Thank you for your partnership in expanding our Jewish programming!In this practical halacha episode preparing for Pesach, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reviews Siman 116 of Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, focusing on removing absorbed forbidden flavors (e.g., Chametz or non-Kosher) from utensils so they can be used for Pesach or kosher food. The core principle is Kebol'o Kach Pol'to ("as it absorbed, so it expels"): utensils are Kashered in the same manner the prohibited flavor entered (e.g., direct fire use requires Libun/torching; hot liquid requires Hagalah/boiling water immersion). Earthenware (Kli cheres) can never be Kashered—neither Hagalah nor Libun works. Metal, wood, stone, and bone utensils generally can via Hagalah (immersion in boiling water) after thorough cleaning and 24-hour non-use.Key details: Utensils must be spotless (no residue/rust/crevices) before Kashering; Hagalah requires fully boiling water (212°F) in a Pesach pot, with the item fully submerged; Libun (direct flame) is needed for fire-used items (e.g., baking pans) until sparks fly or straw burns on contact; glued/adhesive-handled items often cannot be Kashered reliably; repaired/patched utensils may require extra steps (e.g., prior libun under patch); whiskey barrels or items with strong odors need special treatment (boiling with ashes until odor gone); modern practice favors separate Pesach sets due to cost/ease, with Hagalah/Libun mainly for sinks, stoves, ovens, grates, and expensive items like silver goblets. The episode stresses consulting a Rav for specifics and notes today's availability of certified Pesach utensils simplifies observance._____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

Please support TORCH at GiveTORCH.net. Thank you for your partnership in expanding our Jewish programming!In this halacha-focused episode preparing for Pesach, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reviews key laws from Kitzur Shulchan Aruch Siman 117. He begins with Bitul (nullification): normally, a prohibited item is nullified in a 1:60 ratio of permitted food, allowing the mixture if the prohibited amount is tiny and mixed immediately (e.g., a drop of milk in chicken soup). On Pesach, however, the rules are stricter: before Pesach (until nightfall), chometz follows standard Bitul (discard the kernel and the rest is kosher for Pesach). Once Pesach begins, even a minute amount of Chometz prohibits the entire mixture for eating and benefit (hana'ah)—one cannot sell, feed animals, or derive pleasure from it; a rabbinic authority must be consulted.Additional laws include: avoiding singeing fowl over grain-straw (concern for Chometz flavor); prohibiting Kitniyot (legumes/rice/corn etc.) for Ashkenazim due to potential grain mixture or confusion with chometz flour (a binding custom, not followed by Sephardim); caution with dried fruits/spices (cloves/saffron often forbidden); permitting matzah ashira (kneaded with fruit juice/eggs/milk) only in pressing need (e.g., for the ill), but not for the Seder mitzvah of matzah (requires water-kneaded); restrictions on benefiting from chometz (no profit from rental/transport of chometz items, no feeding animals chometz); and special leniencies (e.g., telling a non-Jewish worker to buy/eat chometz with repayment, or renting space/animals without specifying chometz use). The episode stresses consulting a rav for specifics and notes modern ease with certified kosher-for-Passover products._____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

What about produce that remains attached to the ground? Is that to be tithed? Is it food? Also, a new mishnah with the 5 grains that are obligated in "challah" - giving a portion to God - plus, the same 5 that can become both matzah and chametz.
