Without "leavened" for seven days ...

"For seven days you shall eat Azimos loaves" (Exodus 12, 15)

"You shall eat no leavened thing in all your dwellings , you will eat Azimos (Matza) loaves (Exodus 12, 20)

It is characteristic of Pesach to eat only unleavened bread (Matza) and the strict prohibitions on possessing, as well as eating, leavened bread or any other food that has chametz leaven.
"For whoever eats leavened from the first day to the seventh day will be wiped out from Israel" (Exodus 12, 15)
It is also written "For seven days I do not know you will find leaven in your houses, because whoever eats leavened, even the ger (convert) as a native of the country, will be wiped out from the congregation of Israel "(Exodus 12, 19)
These precepts are among those that were transmitted to the children of Israel by Moses before their departure from Egypt and their liberation from slavery. neration as a perpetual institution "(Exodus 12, 17)
It is also forbidden to possess chametz during pesach, even if one does not eat it.
"And nothing leavened, nor leaven will be seen with you in every territory" (Exodus 13, 17) "and for seven days I will not find leaven in your houses" (Exodus 12, 19)

But what is chametz?

It is any of the five main cereals:
Wheat, rye, barley, oats and spelled, which has been in contact with water for at least eighteen minutes.
This grain or flour is considered to have started the fermentation process.
Jametz is any food prepared with any of these grains and in which they are found as an ingredient, even in the smallest amounts.
The only exception is Matza, which is the required unleavened bread and all the necessary precautions have been taken in baking.

Also the use of tableware and utensils in which the slightest particle of Chametz could be left is prohibited during pesach, unless it is possible to make them kosher and this is done in advance.
