INTRODUCTION SIF 437 SIF 2 (7) If one rents a house from one’s fellow on the fourteenth /of Nissan/ and does not know whether /or not/ it has been checked /for chametz, then/, (8) if /the person who rented it/ is in the town (9) /the renter/ should ask him whether he /in fact/ checked it /for chametz/.
