At the end of the<br />\nbiblical book of Genesis, Joseph moves his family to Egypt, where he becomes the second-in-command to<br />\nPharaoh. Protected by Joseph's exalted status, the family lives safely for several generations and proliferate<br />\ngreatly, becoming a great nation. The size of this growing population frightens the new Pharaoh, who enslaves<br />\nthe Israelites, lest they make war on Egypt. Even under slave conditions, the Israelites continue to reproduce, and<br />\nPharaoh eventually decrees that all baby boys be killed. In the course of the seder, we dip the karpas in salt water<br />\nin order to taste both the hope of new birth and the tears that the Israelite slaves shed over their condition.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Haroset:</strong> This mix of fruits, wine or honey, and nuts symbolizes the mortar that the Israelite slaves used to<br />\nconstruct buildings for Pharaoh. The name itself comes from the Hebrew word cheres or clay. Mizrahi and<br />\nSephardi haroset often includes dried fruits, and especially dates. Some Ashkenazi Jews include apples in haroset,<br />\na nod to the midrashic tradition that the Israelite women would go into the fields and seduce their husbands<br />\nunder the apple trees, in defiance of the Egyptian attempts to prevent reproduction by separation.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Maror: </strong>This bitter herb allows us to taste the bitterness of slavery. Like life in Egypt, these lettuces and roots<br />\ntaste sweet when one first bites into them, but then become bitter as one eats more. We dip maror into haroset<br />\nin order to associate the bitterness of slavery with the work that caused so much of this bitterness.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Z'roa:</strong> A roasted lamb shank bone that symbolizes the lamb that Jews sacrificed as the special Passover offering<br />\nwhen the Temple stood in Jerusalem. The z'roa serves as a visual reminder of the sacrifice that the Israelites<br />\noffered immediately before leaving Egypt and that Jews continued to offer until the destruction of the Temple.<br />\nVegetarians often substitute a roasted beet, both because the red of the beet resembles the blood of the<br />\nsacrifice and because the Talmud mentions beets as one of the vegetables sometimes dipped during the seder.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Beitzah:</strong> A roasted egg that symbolizes the hagigah sacrifice, which would be offered on every holiday (including<br />\nPassover) when the Temple stood. The roundness of the egg also represents the cycle of life--even in the most<br />\npainful of times, there is always hope for a new beginning.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Olive: </strong>An olive on my Seder plate represents the oppression of Palestinians at the hands of the Israeli<br />\nGovernment. It reminds us to ask: “How will we, as Jews, bear witness to the unjust actions committed in our<br />\nname? Will these olives inspire us to be bearers of peace and hope for Palestinians — and for all who are<br />\noppressed?” (Forward, Put an Olive on the Seder Plate)</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Orange: </strong>The orange reminds us of the presence of LGBTQ folks in our community, and the oppression they and<br />\nall of us face within the strict gender and sexuality roles enforced in the name of our tradition.<br />\nTomato: The tomato is a symbol of modern-day slavery, representing the migrant workers who suffer abuse at<br />\nthe hands of a consumer market that demands fruits and vegetables without regard for how the pickers are<br />\ntreated.</p>\n\n<p><br />\n<strong>Lock and Key</strong>: We place the lock and key on our seder plate tonight to ally ourselves with those who are behind<br />\nbars, with those who are labelled as felons in the community, and with the parents, children, and other family<br />\nmembers of those who are locked up and locked out. The key represents our commitment, as Jews who know a<br />\nhistory of oppression, to join the movement to end mass incarceration in the United States. The key reminds us<br />\nof our potential to partner with the Source of Liberation to unlock a more promising, dignified future for us all.<br />\n(RitualWell)</p>", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": null, "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": 230, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "The Seder Plate | Passover haggadah by Alyssa Rubin", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

Hannah Szenes was captured, tortured, and put to death at the age of 20. She wrote this poem in prison in Budapest before her execution: Blessed is the match consumed in kindling the flame. Blessed is the flame that burns in the secret fastness of the heart. Blessed is the heart with strength to stop its beating for honor’s sake. Blessed is the match consumed in kindling the flame. - Hannah Szenes, 1921-1944</p>", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "https://ijvcanada.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/love-and-justice-haggadah.pdf", "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": 395, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Ashrei Hagafrur by Hannah Szenes | Passover haggadah by Alyssa Rubin", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
