I Can’t Believe It’s Written! – Pesah 3
Pesah Edition, P. 3 Yesterday we read this paragraph from Shulhan Arukh: Orah Haim 447:4: If hametz was mixed [into something else] before Pesah and was nullified by a ratio of sixty, it does nor reawaken on Pesah to make the mixture forbidden by even a small amount, and some disagree.
