Rachtzah
Now is the second hand washing of our seder. The first one, we stayed in silence. We considered our own hopes for this seder. We looked within.
Now, we look around us and recognize the community of people gathered around us. As each person washes their hands, imagine the loved ones who have brought you to this moment, whether they are here today or not.
When everyone is back at the table, please say:
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ מֶֽלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָֽׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו, וְצִוָּנוּ עַל נְטִילַת יָדָֽיִם
Baruch Atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, asher kid’shanu b’mitzvotav v’tzivanu al n’tilat yadayim.
We praise God, Ruler of Everything, who made us holy through obligations, commanding us to wash our hands.
