Closing, 2nd Cup
Finally, let us reflect on these three things and their meaning:
The shank bone.
- “And You shall say, ‘It is the Passover offering for Adonai, who passed over the houses of the Israelites saving us in Mitzrayim but struck the houses of the Egyptians."
_____
The matza.
- “And they baked the dough which they brought forth out o Egypt into matzah – cakes of unleavened bread – which had not risen, for having been driven out of Egypt they could not tarry, and they had made no provisions for themselves.”
_____
The maror.
- “And they embittered their lives with servitude, with mortar and bricks without straw, with every form of slavery in the field and with great torment.”
_____
"He took us out of slavery into freedom, out of grief into joy, out of mourning into a festival, out of darkness into a great light, out of slavery into redemption. We will recite a new song before Him! Halleluyah!"
[Cover the matza and raise the cup of wine]
Blessed are You, Lord our G-d, King of the universe, Who creates the fruit of the vine.
Now we drink at the end of the maggid.
