The Torah says we are to speak these words before God and say, “My father was a wandering Aramean. He went down into Egypt and sojourned there. With few in number, he became there a great and populous nation. The Egyptians dealt harshly with us and afflicted us and imposed hard labor upon us. And we cried out to the Lord, the God of our fathers, and God heard our cry and saw our affliction and our oppression. He brought us...

Just as we remember all of the times throughout history when the nations of the world shut their doors on Jews fleeing violence and persecution in their homelands, so, too, do we remember with gratitude the bravery of those who took us in during our times of need — the Ottoman Sultan who welcomed Spanish Jews escaping the Inquisition, Algerian Muslims who protected Jews during pogroms in the French Pied -Noir, and the righteous gentiles hiding Jews in their homes during...

If He had brought us out from Egypt, and had not carried out judgments against them Dayenu! If He had carried out judgments against them, and not against their idols Dayenu! If He had destroyed their idols, and had not smitten their first-born Dayenu! If He had smitten their first-born, and had not given us their wealth Dayenu! If He had given us their wealth, and had not split the sea for us Dayenu!  If He had split the sea for...

One of most beloved songs in the Passover seder is "Dayenu". We will go around the table, reading the stanzas one at a time, and then 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...

The Passover Seder is now complete. It is our hope that one day soon we will enjoy fellowship together with the Messiah himself in his coming kingdom. We will spend the rest of the evening singing beautiful seder songs and enjoying one another’s company. Then when we are ready to depart, we say to one another: “May the Eternal One, the Almighty of Israel bless you, keep you, and shine His face upon you.” Amen. We put down our Haggadahs and...

At this point, it is customary to sing selections from the Tehillim/Psalms, continuing our thanks to God for redeeming our ancestors from Egypt and his continuous protection. It is a time of singing and of praise. We are to love Adonai with all our hearts, with all our souls and with all our might and to diligently teach our children the Torah commandments, speaking of them daily and keeping them close to our minds and close to our hearts. Psalm 136...

Take the uppermost matzah and break it into pieces and distribute it to each participant at our Seder. בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יי אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם הַמּוֹצִיא לֶחֶם מִן הָאָרֶץ Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha’olam ha’motzi lechem min ha’aretz. Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, Who brings forth bread from the Earth. בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יי אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ עַל אֲכִילַת מַצָּה Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha’olam asher kidshanu bemitzvotav ve-tzivanu al achilat matzah....

The shank bone represents the Pesach, the special lamb sacrifice made on the night of the first Passover, in the days of the Temple for the Passover holiday, and of Yeshua - our Passover Lamb and renewer of our covenant with Elohim (Gen 22:7-8, Is. 53:7, Acts 8:31-35, John 1:29). The matzah reminds us that when the Israelites were finally free to leave Egypt, there was no time to pack or prepare. They grabbed whatever dough was made and set out...

Ex. 12:21 Then Moses called all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs for yourselves according to your clans, and kill the Passover lamb. 22 Take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and touch the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. None of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. 23 For the Lord...
