🥖🥖 2 BREADs for Еvery Мeal on Shabbat ｜ Rabbi Israel Yakobov

The parnasa of the person the whole week is dependent on the breads of Shabbat.

That's why they not just have to be two, they have to be also whole.

If you have a bread that even someone took a small piece from that bread, it's not whole, that's not a good bread to do bracha on it.

That's why you should, when you go shopping, you should always make sure you have enough bread.

Sometimes people, they buy big bread, but big bread, okay, and another one small bread.

They say the big bread, we'll eat it the whole Shabbat.

Yeah, but this big bread, it's after one time, after one meal, you break it, it's not whole anymore.

That's why it's good to have few small bread for the Shabbat, to have always Lechem Mishneh.

If you are stuck and you don't have Lechem Mishne, you have one whole bread and the other one you don't have a whole bread, you have only a cut bread, half bread.

According to halacha, you can take a matzah.

Sometimes we have matzot from Pesach.

Matzah is also like bread.

If you don't have a matzah, you can take a cracker that is whole.

It also can be mitzaref.

You can add it to the Lechem Mishne.

But there's a question that people ask.

They say sometimes they go to the bakery and in the bakery they make a lot of bread.

Sometimes the bread, they attach to each other.

Because it expands and it's attached to each other.

Then you have to cut the bread.

When you cut it, it looks like it's not whole.

You break it.

Yeah, I mean, you break.

You separate two whole breads, but when you separate them, it's not always, you know, on the line.

Sometimes it takes a little bit from that one, takes a little bit from that one.
