Rebbe Urges Use of Matzot
°
L
NEW YORK — The
Lubavitcher Rebbe,
Rabbi Menachem M.
Schneerson, has called
) upon rabbis and Jewish
leaders to advise their
congregants and adhe-
_ rents to use `shmura
matzot' on the Passover
holiday.
which,
"Shmura,"
means guarded, describes
these special matzot be-
cause,the wheat used in
thei/ baking is carefully
protected against any
contact with water from
the instant it is reaped.
Water could cause
leavening and thereby
disqualify its use on
Passover.
These matzot are round
in form and are hand-
made under scrutinizing
supervision to avoid any
possibility of leavening
during the kneading and
baking process.
Thousands of pounds of
shmura matzot are an-
nually ,dispatched
through the rebbe's office
and Lubavitcher regional
offices throughout the
world. Large quantities
are shipped to Jews in iso-
lated communities, and to
college campuses where
sedarim are conducted
for Jewish students.
