There are 5 parts: Narrator, Pharaoh, Yochaved, Moses, God.\n\nNarrator: This is the Passover story, as told in the Torah, in the book of Exodus. This is the story of Jewish enslavement in the land of Egypt long ago. There came a time when a new ruler arose over Egypt, one who oppressed the Hebrew people and enslaved them. But the children of Israel continued to multiply.\n\nPharaoh: The Hebrews are too many and too strong! From this day, I order that every Hebrew son be drowned in the river.\n\nYochaved: Oh, no! I have just given birth to a baby boy, but I can not bear to drown him. Let me put him in a basket and let him float down the river. Maybe he will be rescued.\n\nNarrator: A little while later…\n\nYochaved: Oh! My daughter, Miriam, who followed the basket tells me that my baby boy was rescued by the Pharaoh’s daughter. She is raising him and has named him Moses! Narrator: One day, when Moses was a grown man, he walked out among his people.\n\nMoses: I have seen such unbearable sights! Today I saw an Egyptian taskmaster beat a Hebrew slave, so I killed the taskmaster. But now I must flee otherwise the Egyptians will surely kill me! But what is that? A burning bush which is not consumed?!?\n\nGod: I am the God of Abraham and Sara, of Isaac and Rebecca, of Jacob, Leah and Rachel. Moses, go back to Egypt and demand of Pharaoh that the Hebrew people be set free.\n\nNarrator: Moses and his brother Aaron spoke to the elders of the children of Israel. Moses (to Pharaoh): Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: “Let My People Go.”\n\nPharaoh: Who is this Lord that I should heed him and let your people go? From now on the Hebrews will continue to make bricks but will also have to go and gather the straw for themselves.\n\nGod: Who is this Pharaoh who does not heed me and will not let my people go? I will send nine plagues of death and destruction over the Land of Egypt! But still he does not let my people free! Moses, tell Pharaoh that I will send the Angel of Death to kill all the Egyptian first born sons.\n\nMoses: Children of Israel! God will send the Angel of Death to smite all the first-born of Egypt, from the first born of Pharaoh to the first-born of cattle. But you will be saved, if you put the blood of lambs on your doorposts. The Angel of Death will pass over the houses of Israel.\n\nNarrator: And it was so.\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "http://www.peaceissexy.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Passover-Haggadah-EPU-2005.pdf", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "-- Exodus Story", "slug": "exodus-story" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 163, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Mageed - The Telling, Act 1 | Passover haggadah by Emily Greytak", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

At the Seder we tell the story of the Jewish people escaping slavery in Egypt thousands of years ago. Seder means “order” in Hebrew, which tells us that people all over the world tell the story in the same order on the very same evening. The special book that we read the Passover story from is called a “Haggadah”. This story is based on a section of the Bible called \"Exodus\" - some people believe everything really happened in the way the Bible says, other people believe some of it is true, and some of it is not. Other people may believe almost all of it is pretend. As we tell the story, you can think about what parts you think are true and what parts are just a good made up story. Whether we believe it really happened or not, it is an important part of history and Jewish culture and traditions. Telling stories are a good way to help us learn lessons and think about the world and people's actions.\n\nWe gather on Passover to recall a moment of resistance and liberation in the history of our people. The story of Exodus reminds us of the transformative power that our people wield when we confront oppression.The Passover story is about the relationship between the Jewish people of the Bible with God. Although each of us has our own beliefs and opinions about the existence and nature of God, we use the word “God\" when telling this story, because it is consistent with Judaism, the tradition we honor today. We will also use some of the Hebrew blessings. Many people think about God in different ways - some do not believe in God at all, some believe in many Gods or Goddesses, others believe that God represents something. What does God mean to you, if anything? [ ask for volunteers to share what God means to them] \n\nWhen we see the word God tonight, you can think of the word representing what it means to you. Or you can use a different word instead, like: The Universe, Goddess, Higher Power, Creator, Spirit, Allah, Source of Peace, Ancestral Spirits. Are there any other words you would like to use in place of God when you read tonight? Some of us might be using different words depending on who is reading, and that is okay! It is also okay to use the word God for tonight, even if you are not sure what you believe. [reader can share what they will saying for God if it is different] ", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Adapated from Oranges & Olives Haggadah", "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": 381, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Opening | Passover haggadah by Emily Greytak", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

On Shabbat, the Sabbath, and on holidays, parents lay their hands on the heads of each child and bless them. In the absence of a parent, children can be blessed by any loving adult who is with them. Let us bless all of the children in our midst - in our homes, in our lives, and in the world. As we bless them, we commit ourselves to the dream of a world where all children are free to go to school, are safe from violence, have loving adults in their lives, are free to express themselves and be who they are, and have the basic necessities they need in order to grow up to be their best selves.\n\nFor those adults with children with them right now, with the child's permission, please place your hands on the heads of a child. For the children with us - if you do not want someone touching your head - that's okay! They can place a hand on your shoulder, or on the air above your head, like a halo. Tell the grown-ups where you would like their hand to be for this blessing.\n\nNext, grown ups, envision the world you want to create for future of children in your life and in the world.. Children, think about the world you would like to live in. As the grown ups consider what we want for the children's future, let us also reflect on the present and who this child is today in the world - their needs and interests and feelings. Let our children help ground us in the present. And let us be guided by the words of wisdom by Stacia Tausche who said: \"We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.\"\n\nNow, grown ups let us read together and to the children: “May you be blessed and kept. May the light shine upon you and grant you peace.”\n\nChildren, now it's your turn. Check in with a grown up about where they would like you to place your hands on them - their head, shoulder, or over their head. Then, with your hand placed, think about what type of world you wish for the grown ups in your life. And say aloud together and to the grownups \"May you be blessed and kept. May the light shine upon you and grant you peace.”\n\nAnd together, let us all - grown ups and children - close this blessing by saying the Hebrew word for peace: Shalom.\n\nAll: Shalom.", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Adapted from http://uuja.org/holidays/lit/OrangesandOlivesHaggadah.pdf", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Kadesh", "slug": "kadesh" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 334, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Blessing for the Children (and the Grown Ups) | Passover haggadah by Emily Greytak", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

We eat matzah to remind us that the Jews had no time to bake their bread before leaving Egypt. The raw dough they put on their backs baked into matzah.\n\n2. Why do we eat bitter herbs at the Seder? We eat bitter herbs to remind us of the bitter life the slaves had while working for Pharaoh in Egypt.\n\n3. Why do we dip foods twice at the Seder? We dip the parsley or other green vegetable into salt water to remind us that spring is here and new life is growing all around us. The salt water reminds us of the tears of the Jewish slaves. By dipping one in another, we remember the happy and the sad times together. We also link together the ancient celebrations of springtime with the retelling of this important story from our Biblical tradition. We dip, or rather combine, the apples and walnuts with wine to remind us of the clay and mortar that the slaves used to make the bricks for building the cities and palaces for Pharaoh.\n\n4.

It must have been very difficult for him to look at the family that raised him with objective eyes, and admit to himself that they were all part of something that hurt others. To stand up to the life he had been leading meant risking all that he had, including his adoptive family. Many people believe Moses obeyed the voice of God because he learned he was born a Hebrew. Others believe he did it because of his strong sense of social justice. He believed all people were his people, not just the family who raised him, nor the families who served him, but all people.

However, one of the most important people in Moses' life is rarely discussed. Moses fled Egypt for a time before the Exodus and during this period he met and fell in love with Zipporah, an Ethiopian woman who would become his wife and mother of his two children. During Moses' time away from Egypt, Zipporah saved his life twice - once when he being pursed by police and another when she found a cure for an illness he suffered from. And it was Zipporah (whose name means little bird in Hebrew) who pushed Moses to achieve his mission of helping to free the Jews from slavery. It was Zipporah who convinced Moses to return to Egypt.\n\nAnd yet, after their journey through the Red Sea, Aaron and Miriam, Moses' brother and sister, actually condemn Zipporah because of her black skin. Moses gets angry and reminds them of their former condition of slavery. Still, later when Moses leaves for Mt. Sinai, Zipporah is driven out of the Jewish community and then eventually killed. \n\nWhen Zipporah has been portrayed, her Blackness is often erased. For example, her son is depicted as White with blue eyes in a portion of the Michaelangelo's Sistine Chapel paintings. And Zipporah herself was portrayed by a blonde White woman in the Ten Commandments movie.\n\nThe story of Zipporah and her representation has many parallels to manifestations of racism and sexism of today. Can anyone think of similar ways Black women are treated in modern day? Any examples of Black women who have been erased from history, or even current events? [pause for discussion among guests].\n\nLet us pledge to remember Zipporah and her critical role in the Passover story, and let us strive to ensure that women of color no longer remain invisible or become Whitewashed in our history and in our current society. \n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "based on information from and http://historyofafricaotherwise.blogspot.com/2011/09/zipporah-black-wife-of-moses.html", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "-- Ten Plagues", "slug": "ten-plagues" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 183, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Often Forgotten | Passover haggadah by Emily Greytak", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

As we tell the story of Exodus, try and identify the different roles.

While we celebrate the rebirth that Spring brings, we also dip these greens into salt water before eating to represent the tears and sadness caused by suffering. Not only suffering of those enslaved, but also for the suffering of our Earth. We feel sadness when our environment is not protected from destruction.\n\nIf the Earth Could Speak, It Would Speak with Passion \n By Rabbi Warren Stone, Temple Emanuel, Kensington, MD \n\n\"As you dip the beauty of greens into the water of tears, please hear \nmy cry. Can’t you see that I am slowly dying? My forests are being \nclear cut, diminished. My diverse and wondrous creatures -- birds \nof the sky and beasts of the fields -- small and large are threatened with extinction in your lifetimes. My splendid, colorful floral and fauna are diminishing in kind. My tropical places are disappearing before us, and my oceans are warming. Don’t you see that my climate is changing, bringing floods and heat, more extreme cycles of cold and warm, all affecting you and all our Creation? It doesn’t have to be! You, all of you, can make a difference in simple ways. You, all of you, can help reverse this sorrowful trend.\n\nMay these waters into which you dip the greens become healing waters to soothe and restore.\n\nAs you dip, quietly make this promise: \nYes, I can help protect our wondrous natural places. Yes, I can try to use fewer of our precious resources and to replant and sustain more. I can do my part to protect our forests, our oceans and waters.

Beitzah – The egg symbolizes a different holiday offering that was brought to the temple. Since eggs are the first item offered to a mourner after a funeral, some say it also evokes a sense of mourning for the destruction of the temple. At Passover, we often dip these eggs in saltwater to symbolize this sadness. Olives – In vegetarian homes, the traditional roasted lamb bone is sometimes replaced with olives, which represents the olive branch, an international symbol of peace. These are traditional foods eaten during the Seder meal, but of course, our Seder plate can serve as the plate for all of us today.

This is not traditional for Passover.\n\n Tomato - This tomato brings our attention to the oppression and liberation of farmworkers who harvest fruits and vegetables here in the United States. And it reminds of us of our power to help create justice. On this night when we remember the Jewish journey from slavery to freedom, we remember numerous cases of modern slavery that exist. For example, the reported use of enslaved labor in Florida's tomato industry. There have been reports of workers also facing abusive working conditions, such as wage theft, harassment, exposure to dangerous pesticides, or poverty level wages that have not changed for more than 30 years.\n\nBut a transformation is underway. Since 1993, the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, a farmworker organization, has been organizing for justice in the fields. Together with other organizations, they have convinced 11 major corporations, such as McDonald’s and Trader Joe’s, to join the Fair Food Program, a historic partnership between workers, growers and corporations. We can work to help convince other businesses to join this program. \n\n Orange - The orange on the Seder plate has come to symbolize full inclusion in modern day Judaism for those who were traditionally not seen as full participants or leaders in Jewish life and traditions, especially women and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people. The common tale was that a man once said that women don’t belong leading aspects of worship in Judaism by saying “A woman on the bimah is like an orange on the Seder plate.” (The bimah is a podium where people stand to read from the “Torah”, as Jews call the Old Testament of the Bible.) - both things that don't belong. Feminists (people believing in gender equality) responded by celebrating the orange, by placing it in the center the Seder plate showing that since women belonged on the bima, so must an orange on the Seder plate. There was a simliar history to using orange to symbolize LGBTQ inclusion in Judasim. People place an orange on Seder plate to honor and symbolize the struggle for freedom faced by LGBTQ people. For those of us who are part of the LGBTQ community here at our Seder, it makes us feel good to be acknowledged and included, especially when we were not during many times of history, and still today in many places.", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "Some parts adapted from Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism, Pride.com, and Oranges and Olives Haggadah", "featured": 1, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Maggid - Beginning", "slug": "maggid-beginning" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 428, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "But why is there an orange and a tomato on the Seder plate? | Passover haggadah by Emily Greytak", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

Specifically, that many people face multiple types of oppression (e.g. an Asian lesbian woman may face sexism, homophobia, and racism).

Mageed - The Telling, Act 1

Haggadah Section: -- Exodus Story

To tell the story, we first need some volunteers to play the characters in this story. There are 5 parts: Narrator, Pharaoh, Yochaved, Moses, God.

Narrator: This is the Passover story, as told in the Torah, in the book of Exodus. This is the story of Jewish enslavement in the land of Egypt long ago. There came a time when a new ruler arose over Egypt, one who oppressed the Hebrew people and enslaved them. But the children of Israel continued to multiply.

Pharaoh: The Hebrews are too many and too strong! From this day, I order that every Hebrew son be drowned in the river.

Yochaved: Oh, no! I have just given birth to a baby boy, but I can not bear to drown him. Let me put him in a basket and let him float down the river. Maybe he will be rescued.

Narrator: A little while later…

Yochaved: Oh! My daughter, Miriam, who followed the basket tells me that my baby boy was rescued by the Pharaoh’s daughter. She is raising him and has named him Moses! Narrator: One day, when Moses was a grown man, he walked out among his people.

Moses: I have seen such unbearable sights! Today I saw an Egyptian taskmaster beat a Hebrew slave, so I killed the taskmaster. But now I must flee otherwise the Egyptians will surely kill me! But what is that? A burning bush which is not consumed?!?

God: I am the God of Abraham and Sara, of Isaac and Rebecca, of Jacob, Leah and Rachel. Moses, go back to Egypt and demand of Pharaoh that the Hebrew people be set free.

Narrator: Moses and his brother Aaron spoke to the elders of the children of Israel. Moses (to Pharaoh): Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: “Let My People Go.”

Pharaoh: Who is this Lord that I should heed him and let your people go? From now on the Hebrews will continue to make bricks but will also have to go and gather the straw for themselves.

God: Who is this Pharaoh who does not heed me and will not let my people go? I will send nine plagues of death and destruction over the Land of Egypt! But still he does not let my people free! Moses, tell Pharaoh that I will send the Angel of Death to kill all the Egyptian first born sons.

Moses: Children of Israel! God will send the Angel of Death to smite all the first-born of Egypt, from the first born of Pharaoh to the first-born of cattle. But you will be saved, if you put the blood of lambs on your doorposts. The Angel of Death will pass over the houses of Israel.

Narrator: And it was so.
