Listen "Taanis 24b: Baking Challah on Erev Shabbos "
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we explore the beautiful minhag of baking challah specifically on Erev Shabbos. We’ll discuss the deeper reasons behind this custom — from honoring Shabbos to spiritual symbolism rooted in the Beis HaMikdash and the story of R’ Chanina ben Dosa. We'll also look at the halachic ramifications: Is it okay to bake once for multiple weeks? Can you freeze dough or challos? Do you still get the mitzvah of hafrashas challah? Join us as we unpack the meaning, the halacha, and the practical guidance behind this cherished weekly act.
