| <p> (מִצָּה, ἄζυμος )'','' bread baked from unfermented dough. The Hebrews early knew the art of raising bread by means of leaven (חָמֵוֹ שְׂאֹר, ζ῎ύμη; on the various ancient kinds of this see Pliny, 18:26) prepared from the dregs or yeast of' wine, or from a mixture of flour and water, which spontaneously ferments if allowed to stand, and which may, either moist or dried, be preserved for a considerable period for this purpose (Mishna, Pesach, 3, 1; Challa, 1, 7; comp. Harmer, Observ. 3, 65). Sometimes they baked bread without being leavened, especially when in paste ( Genesis 19:3; Judges 6:19; 1 Samuel 28:24), as the modern Bedawin regularly do (Arvieux, 3, 227). This was formally presented for the paschal cakes (מִצּוֹת, Exodus 12:8; Exodus 12:15; Exodus 12:20; Exodus 13:3; Exodus 13:6 sq.); and this fact became a symbol of the festival which thence was popularly designated as "the feast of unleavened bread." (See [[Passover]]). In fact, the [[Jews]] were expressly prohibited from all use of leaven during the seven days of its continuance, and even from having any leaven in their houses for all that time ( Exodus 12:19; Exodus 13:7; comp. 1 Corinthians 5:7); so that they were obliged to seek and carefully remove all traces of: it on the eve of the 14th of [[Nisan]] (see ''Pesach, 1-3;'' Schö ttgen, ''Hor. Hebr.'' 1, 598)., They usually burned it (Pesach, 2, 1), but not in an oven; and were so scrupulous as not even to allow domestic animals to eat it during that period (ibid.). The sacrificial cakes of the meat-offering were also required to contain no leaven ( Exodus 29:2; Leviticus 2:11; Numbers 6:15; Numbers 6:19; comp. Amos 4:5; Mishna, ''Menac.'' 5, 1, ''Pesach,'' 1, 5; see Otho, ''Lex. Rabb.'' p. 227: a similar usage prevailed in the Roman ritual; see Plutarch, Quaest. Rom. 109; comp. Casaubon, on Pers. Sat. i); on the other hand, the Pentecostal loaves, which represented the usual food of men, were leavened ( Leviticus 23:17). Also the cakes which served as a basis (perhaps by way of platter) for the thank-offering were baked with leaven ( Leviticus 7:13). (See [[Bread]]); (See [[Leaven]]). </p>
