Seders also have a universal appeal because of the values being celebrated: freedom, striving against oppression, and the enhancing of liberty for all. These values are a source of inspiration for people fighting against their own oppression. There are 15 historical parts to the Seder, and many Seders are several hours long (don't worry, this one will not be!)</p>\n\n<p>The parts of the Seder involve the use of certain symbolic foods.</p>\n\n<p>P'RI HA-GAPHEN \"the fruit of the vine\" - wine or grape juice (4 glasses...but if you are driving 4 sips is fine!)</p>\n\n<p>MATZAH: unleavened bread</p>\n\n<p>MAROR: a bitter herb (horseradish, green onion, or romaine lettuce)</p>\n\n<p>KARPAS: parsley or celery</p>\n\n<p>Z'ROA: an animal bone or a beet [New tradition: Blood orange!]</p>\n\n<p>BEITSAH: an egg, hard-boiled then roasted</p>\n\n<p>HAROSET: a condiment made from fruits, nuts, spices, and wine</p>\n\n<p>TAPPUZ: an orange is a recent addition to the traditional Seder and represents the inclusion of all in this faith and community.</p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Introduction", "slug": "introduction" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 227, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Family Haggadah Introduction | Passover haggadah by Claudia Hall", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

For those like myself, everything is questioned, especially the historicity of the narrative. The stories in the Bible were all arranged for a purpose, primarily keeping the faith of an exiled people alive. Whether these stories happened as the narrative records, or even happened at all, is a matter of great debate. The majority of liberal thinkers tend toward the idea that there is a seed of historical fact (slaves escaped Egypt) but that the majority of the narrative is the product of oral traditions that were changed and embellished over the centuries.</p>\n\n<p>So why do we celebrate if it isn't true?</p>\n\n<p>There are many answers. First, we celebrate because it is the tradition to do so, and it connects us to our Jewish forebears of faith. Second, we celebrate because freedom is a precious thing, never to be taken for granted. Third, we celebrate because the values of Passover are universal: freedom from oppression, seeking meaning and truth, and enjoyment of family and loved ones.</p>\n\n<p>There are as many reasons to celebrate as there are people at a Seder. The truth of the narrative, the truth of any of our memories, is as powerful as the meaning we give to them. May we each make wonderful memories and powerful meaning through our Seder interactions, tonight.</p>\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Introduction", "slug": "introduction" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 196, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Why Celebrate If It Isn't True? | Passover haggadah by Claudia Hall", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
