# 3601 As the say in Yidish "Oy Gevald"
Q. I received a copy of the New Testament translated into Hebrew and Yiddish (why these MissioGoyim waste money on such things boggles the mind). May I burn it with my Chometz or is the fire for burning Chometz too holy to be touched by such odious impurity?
Can it be burned with the Lulavim and Hadassim or is that a sacrilege?

Can it be burned if it has the name of Hashem written in Hebrew letters?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller's Shlit'a opinion is that it should be burned as soon as possible and not be kept until Erev Pesach.

However, if for some reason it did coincide with Biur Chametz, it can be done at the same time and even the printed names of Hashem can be burned as they do not have any Kedusha at all.

Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Shlomo Miller, Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller and Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu Shlit'a

I never thought I would live to see the day when Jews would be advised to burn books, no matter how sacrilegious. Get the NT out of your house immedatiately, of course, but the Nazis burned books. Shame on you.
