[Avodah] pesach sheni [from Hakhel]

[Newman,Saul Z]

One final point on Pesach Sheni: there is a difference in custom as to if
and when one eats Matzah today.  According to one opinion, one should not
eat Matzah, for it may appear as if he is attempting to fulfill the Mitzvah
of Matzah in an improper time, which is a violation of the Torah's
prohibition against adding onto the 613 Mitzvos.  Others have the custom to
eat Matzah sometime during the day on the 14th, to remember that the Korbon
Pesach Sheni was brought today.  A third opinion is to eat the Matzah
tonight, i.e., the night of the 15th of Iyar, for this would be the night
that the Korban Pesach Sheni was eaten together with Matzah and Marror.
Every person should follow his custom, or his Rav's guidance, in this area.
