Sources for 21 Pesach Shiurim:
חמץ ומצה
הלילה הזה כולו צלי
חד גדיה
המצה של לוט
אין ביעור חמץ אלא שריפה
אלו קרבנו לפני הר סיני ולא נתן לנו את התורה דייני
ארבע כוסות
פסח – הלכה, מנהג, וחומרה
חייב אדם לעסוק בהלכות הפסח כל הלילה
חישב את הקץ
חרוסת
כנגד ארבע בנים
מַצָּה זוּ שֶׁאָנוּ אוֹכְלִים עַל שׁוּם מָה. עַל שׁוּם מה? -לֶחֶם עֹנִי
מכירת חמץ
מתחיל בגנות ומסיים בשבח
(פֶּסַח,) מַצָּה, (וּמָרוֹר)
קטנית
חג הפסח עד חצות
שיר השירים עם ברכה
ערב תבשילין, קיטניות וחמץ - הבט הלכתי ומחשבתי
רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר בֶּן עֲזַרְיָה זכירת וסיפור יציאת מצרים
