4 Questions
Why is tonight different from all other nights?
1. On all other nights we may eat either leavened bread or matzah; tonight, only matzah, that we may recall the unleavened bread our ancestors baked in haste when they left slavery
2. On all other nights we need not taste bitterness; tonight we eat bitter herbs, that we may recall the suffering of slavery.
3. On all other nights we needn't dip our food in condiments even once; tonight we dip twice, in saltwater to remember our tears when we were enslaved, and in haroset to remember the mortar and the bricks which we made.
4. On all other nights we eat sitting up; tonight, we recline, to remind ourselves to savour our liberation.
