-- Cup #2 & Dayenu 

Dayenu

by Cleveland Hillel

One of most beloved songs in the Passover seder is "Dayenu". A few of us will read the stanzas one at a time, and the everyone else will respond, "Dayenu" – meaning, “it would have been enough”. How many times do we forget to pause and notice that where we are is exactly where we ought to be? Dayenu is a reminder to never forget all the miracles in our lives. When we stand and wait impatiently for the next one...

Next Year in Jerusalem!

by Cleveland Hillel

At the end of the seder, it is traditional to sing "Next Year in Jerusalem." We sometimes think of this as a literal wish, though far fewer of us have actually found ourselves in Jerusalem for seder the following year- congratulations if you have! But Jerusalem is more than a place, it is a feeling, it is a hope. At this point in the seder, I invite everyone to take a moment to think about your own personal Jerusalem and where...

Yehuda Amichai Excerpt

by Cleveland Hillel

Yehuda Amichai is recognized as one of Israel’s finest poets. His poems—written in Hebrew—have been translated into forty languages, and entire volumes of his work have been published in English, French, German, Swedish, Spanish, and Catalan. Translator Robert Alter has said: “Yehuda Amichai, it has been remarked with some justice, is the most widely translated Hebrew poet since King David.” The following is an excerpt from  Open, Closed, Open: I wasn’t one of the six million who died in the Shoah,...

The Four Questions

by Cleveland Hillel

The formal telling of the story of Passover is framed as a discussion with lots of questions and answers. The tradition that the youngest person asks the questions reflects the centrality of involving everyone in the seder. The rabbis who created the set format for the seder gave us the Four Questions to help break the ice in case no one had their own questions. At Hillel, we have a tradition that all the first year students at the Seder sing...

Yachatz 

Breaking the Middle Matzah

by Cleveland Hillel

A Tunisian custom is to say, "This is how God split the Red Sea," and then break the middle matzah.  Israelis of Yeminite origin wrap the afikomen in a napkin and place it over their shoulders throughout the chanting of the Haggadah, symbolizing both the liberation from Egypt, and more recently, the rescue of the Jews of Yemen in Operation Magic Carpet in 1948.

Urchatz 

Urchatz

by Cleveland Hillel

Water is refreshing, cleansing, and clear, so it’s easy to understand why so many cultures and religions use water for symbolic purification. We will wash our hands twice during our seder: now, with no blessing, to get us ready for the rituals to come; and then again later, we’ll wash again with a blessing, preparing us for the meal, which Judaism thinks of as a ritual in itself. (The Jewish obsession with food is older than you thought!) To wash your...

Kadesh 

Kadesh

by Cleveland Hillel

The seder opens with kiddush (the sanctification over wine). This is certainly unremarkable after all, kiddush is the opening act of every shabbat and holiday meal. But kiddush – a ritual .sanctification of time – has an intimate and unique connection to Pesach’s central theme: freedom. How so? Today, we often feel short of time; that time controls us. Kadesh reminds us that true freedom and self-respect is to master and control time for ourselves, to shape our life in accordance...

Order of the Seder

by Cleveland Hillel

Our Passover meal is called a seder, which means "order" in Hebrew, because we go through specific steps as we retell the story of our ancestors' liberation from slavery. Let's read the steps together: Kadesh Urchatz Karpas Yachatz Maggid Rachtzah Motzi Matzah Maror Korech Shulchan Orech Tzafun Barech Hallel Nirtzah

Passover Play - a ten minute script for all ages

by Rabbi Daniel Brenner

Here is a kid and adult friendly alternative to for the Maggid section (the Passover story section) of the Haggadah. This short play is in the style of "sedra scenes" -- a contemporary take which makes the story current but stays true to the Exodus narrative. I've written it for large crowds -- so there are 13 parts, but if you have a smaller gathering you can easily double up. LET MY PEOPLE GO! A short play for the seder CAST:...

A Modern Take on the Four Sons

by JewBelong

You can look at the four sons as four generations of Jews in America today. The first generation of eastern European Jewry who emigrated to America at the turn of the century are represented by THE WISE SON. This is the Jew who grew up with a strong connection to the Jewish way of life. His commitment to Judaism is unshakable. His son, the second generation, is represented in the Wicked Son. This is the rebel who wants to succeed in...

Maggid -- Telling the Story

by Kate Judd

The central imperative of the Seder is to tell the story. The Bible instructs: “ You shall tell your child on that day, saying: ‘This is because of what Adonai did for me when I came out of Egypt.' ” (Exodus 13:8) We relate the story of our ancestors to regain the memories as our own. Elie Weisel writes: God created man because He loves stories. We each have a story to tell — a story of enslavement, struggle, liberation. Be...

Then came a dog and bit the cat, that ate the goat, That Father bought for two zuzim, Chad gadya, chad gadya.

Welcoming All: Reflections on Diversity and Inclusion

by Hillel at UCLA

Adapted from Be'Chol Lashon At Passover, we receive a personal directive to create an inclusive and welcoming community. Even when we intend to be welcoming, many in our community still feel like strangers. The things that divide us — race, ethnicity, gender, class, religion, among others — also have the power to unite us. During the Seder, we are each meant to remember that we ourselves were once strangers in a strange land. If the Jewish community is to be a...

-- Four Questions 

A 5th Question: Adapted from AJWS

by Hillel at UCLA

On other nights, we allow the news of tragedy in distant places to pass us by. We succumb to compassion fatigue – aware that we cannot possibly respond to every injustice that arises around the world. On this night, we are reminded that our legacy as the descendants of slaves creates in us a different kind of responsibility – we are to protect the stranger because we were strangers in the land of Egypt. Let us add a fifth question to...

The Four Questions

by Hillel at UCLA

Free people ask questions. We begin our Seder with questions. Although the custom is that the youngest at the table asks, tradition instructs that all must ask: מַה נִּשְׁתַּנָּה הַלַּֽיְלָה הַזֶּה מִכָּל הַלֵּילות Ma nishtana halaila hazeh mikol haleilot? Why is this night different from all other nights? שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אָֽנוּ אוֹכלין חָמֵץ וּמַצָּה הַלַּֽיְלָה הַזֶּה כֻּלּוֹ מצה Shebichol haleilot anu ochlin chameitz u-matzah.
