Most of the year they ate leavened bread. But for a short period, during the spring when they would be fasting before Passover, they ate unleavened bread. During this short period, the phytic acid in the bread helped to detoxify undesirable metals. However, they did not eat unleavened bread throughout the year as that would have led to mineral deficiencies. " ____ " What can one say of a soul, of a heart, filled with compassion? It is a heart which burns with love for every creature: for human beings, birds, and animals, for serpents and for demons. The thought of them and the sight of them make the tears of the saint flow. And this immense and intense compassion, which flows from the heart of the saints, makes them unable to bear the sight of the smallest, most insignificant wound in any creature. Thus they pray ceaselessly, with tears, even for animals, for enemies of the truth, and for those who do them wrong.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2002 Report Share Posted December 28, 2002 I am not a scholar, but I do know that you eat unleavened bread DURING Passover and not before, and you do not fast during Passover. The evening meal is part of the religious observance, which is called a Seder.
