Responsa do Wyjścia 13:7
מַצּוֹת֙ יֵֽאָכֵ֔ל אֵ֖ת שִׁבְעַ֣ת הַיָּמִ֑ים וְלֹֽא־יֵרָאֶ֨ה לְךָ֜ חָמֵ֗ץ וְלֹֽא־יֵרָאֶ֥ה לְךָ֛ שְׂאֹ֖ר בְּכָל־גְּבֻלֶֽךָ׃
Przaśniki mają być pożywane przez siedm dni, i nie ukaże się u ciebie nic kiszonego, ani ukaże się u ciebie zakis w całym obrębie twoim.
Shut min haShamayim
They responded: the commandments around chametz were the first given to the children of Israel; they were accepted with love and warmth and joy, and they were guarded strictly down to the most minute details. You can see that the Torah was stringent to the level of prohibiting even seeing and owning it2Exodus 12:19 and Exodus 13:7 .. This is not the case for any other prohibition except for idolatry, where it is written "Do not bring an abhorrent thing into your house" (Deuteronomy 7:26). All who increase their meticulous observance shall have the days and years of their life increased too.
