Heavens Jerome !! I always assumed "Chometz" was what we dare not
eat during Passover. And the fact that the Novaselice Rabbi's last name
is "Pesach" seems to lend more credence to that assumption. Yes???

Czernowitzers...
Return with me now to the year 1904 and the town of Novaselice to find
out how Chometz was sold and who was doing it. It could have been your
relatives -- a list of translated names is provided along with the name
of the Rabbi who authorizes the sale and the names of witnesses.
This exciting story and the original documents in cursive Yiddish are
available on the tastefully appointed refurbished Ehpes Blog now!
