Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz

First it says, and then it says, and third he says, the first time it says matzos, it's chaser, it's mem tzadi tov.

The second time it's matzos malei, mem tzadi vav tov.

So it says the gra, this is a remez to the minug, quartered in the ramah, of ma'us chitim, based on the Yerushalmi in the first paragraph of Babas.

So how is that a remez to the minug?

Pesach first says, you should eat.

That's about your own eating.

You know what?

When you eat, it could be matzahs chaser.

It could be that you just have a little bit, that you have the shir mitzum tzaim, you have a kazayis of matzah, and that's good enough.

But then the puzzle goes on to say that matzos male with a vav, matzos yei achel, you should cause to be eaten, meaning take care of other people and give them matzos, but that's in the male sense, that you should give them all of the matzos that they need.

four shivas yamim, and that's how the igra understands, that's how he answers all of the questions, that it's not a repeat in the pasuk, it's two separate chiyuvim, and that's why one is in the binyan kal, and the other is in the binyan nif al, and that's why one of them is chaser vav, and the other one is not chaser vav, a good vart to have in your back pocket.

But l'mai nafgamina between these three possibilities, whether it's a din tzedakah, a din in tax, or a din in simchas yamtov.

So it seems that there might be several nafgamina, four or five nafgamina.

One nafgamina might be, can you even be yotze with money?

Meaning,

If it's a din tzedakah, so that's the best way to do tzedakah.

I mean, not the best way, but that is definitely a key of the mitzvah of tzedakah, is to give money.

But if it's a very specific tax, it could be that the nature of this tax is to give a certain amount of wheat, and that's the entirety of the tax.

In fact, in Shar Tzion, in Tav Chav Tesh,

Os Zayin, he says that it's called a minhag because the mitzvah tzedakah would only be with money.
