Telling the Story

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

LEADER: The story of the Jewish people’s journey from slavery to liberation is the heart of the seder. ALL: This is the bread of poverty which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt. Let all who are hungry come and eat. Let all who are in need come and share our meal. This year we are here. Next year, may we all be in the land of Israel. This year we are still slaves. Next year may we all be...

Hallel: Songs of Praise

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

(Full texts of Psalms 113 or 114 may be inserted here) “Hallel is about praising God, not about self-satisfaction. The latter makes us complacent and lethargic, but the former can only expand our dedication to the principles that God’s goodness represents in our lives. Our praise of God can motivate us to do God’s work in the world – the work of liberation, love, and justice.” — Rabbi Sheila Peltz Weinberg Taken from “A Night of Questions: A Passover Haggadah,” The...

-- Cup #2 & Dayenu

Hunger Seder: Dayenu

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

In the traditional Passover seder, we pause to reflect on what we have in our lives for which we are grateful and thank God for the miracles God performed. Let’s now recite aloud the blessings we enjoy. After each blessing, we take a moment to say together “Dayenu — it would have been enough.” 1. We are grateful that so many among us do not suffer from the oppression and hardship of daily hunger. Dayenu 2. We are grateful to live...

Karpas - Green Vegetable

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

Karpas is from the Greek word karpos, which means “fruit of the soil.” When spring comes we note with pleasure the bounty of vegetables and fruits in the market. Yet in communities and neighborhoods across the country, instead of a seasonal bounty there exists persistent scarcity. Nearly 5 million seniors in the U.S. currently struggle to put enough nutritious food on the table. With 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 every day—many of them aging into poverty—hunger among seniors is quickly becoming...

Hunger Seder: Four Questions

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

The Four Questions we ask at our Hunger Seder challenge us to consider what is different about this night. Only when we ask the right questions can we understand the causes of hunger and take action to end this unnecessary plight. 1. Why during this seder do we focus on hunger? Hunger remains a painful physical reality for far too many of our friends, neighbors, and family members. Hunger is an oppressive force that holds individuals back from realizing their full...

Kos Sheni - The Second Cup

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

LEADER: The Second Cup represents our promise ALL: We will learn why—in a nation of such abundance—there are still millions of people who struggle with hunger. The more we know about the reasons that friends, neighbors, and others in our community experience food insecurity, the better able we will be to create solutions that will free them from this bondage.

Eating the Unleavened Bread

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

We thank God for providing us wheat to make bread. In doing so, God gives us the tools we need to sustain ourselves and our communities. We have the tools to create a hunger-free world. It is our responsibility to use these tools to create a more just society. (Leader lifts up a piece of matzah and invites all to eat a piece of matzah after the blessing.) LEADER We join together in the blessing over the matzah: Baruch ata Adonai...

What Is A Hunger Seder?

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

Each year, Jews across the world join with family, friends, neighbors, and strangers to celebrate the holiday of Passover. But why? What is behind this tradition? Seder means “order.” The ordered rituals and symbols of the Passover seder help us to tell the story of the Jewish people’s liberation from slavery in Egypt. (Leader holds up the Seder Plate and briefly explains the ritual items and what they symbolize.) For today’s seder we choose to recognize that while the Jewish people...

Nirtzah - Conclusion

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

Our seder is now coming to a close. We celebrate our blessings, yet acknowledge the hunger that still plagues far too many in our communities and affirm our commitment to work together to create a hunger-free world. ALL READ TOGETHER IN UNISON: This year we are here; next year in Jerusalem. This year we are pained by hunger; next year may all who are hungry come and eat. -- Inspired by Jewish values and ideals, MAZON is a national advocacy organization...

Urchatz - Hand Washing Ritual

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

The washing of hands is a ritual of purification. We symbolically “wash away” apathy or indifference and prepare ourselves to reignite our passion for justice and our commitment to ending hunger. Later, we wash our hands again and say a blessing in preparation for the festive meal. (The leader pours water—from a “washing cup” into a bowl—over each hand and then repeats the procedure, symbolically washing the hands for all those at the seder table. No blessing is recited at this...

Koreich - Hillel Sandwich

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

To carry out the instruction, “They shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs” (Numbers 9:11), the great sage Hillel would combine matzah and maror on Passover and eat them together. We eat a sandwich of matzah, maror, and charoset to remember both the bitterness and injustice of hunger and the redemptive sweetness that comes with working together to bring about real social change. (The bottom matzah on the seder plate is broken and distributed. Each person takes two pieces...

Ten Plagues of Hunger

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

On Passover, we read about the ten plagues God unleashed on the Egyptians. The plagues we see today, however, are not punishments from God, but ones of our own doing – the awful, unintended consequences of our own actions and inactions. As we read each of these plagues aloud, we dip a finger into the wine and touch a drop onto our plate. This reminds us that, even as we celebrate freedom, our freedom is not complete when others still suffer....

-- Four Questions

Mazon's Fifth Question (2019)

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

Each year at the Seder, we ask the traditional Four Questions. And each year, MAZON asks a Fifth Question to raise awareness about a particular hunger-related issue and spark important conversations around the seder table. This year, we turn our attention to our seniors, who are aging into poverty and hunger at a rapid rate. Why is it that when we talk about aging in America, we never talk about hunger? Why is this time of life different from all other...

Yachatz - Breaking the Middle Matzah

by MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger

(Leader breaks matzah and holds up the smaller broken piece. The larger piece is set aside as the Afikomen.) LEADER: This broken matzah reminds us that our world is broken. We recall those who are poor, whose uncertainty about their future compels them to put aside the “broken half” for later use. We are shaken out of our complacency as we recall God’s words: “Remember that you were slaves in the land of Egypt.” Through service to others, we meet the...
