Breaking of the middle matzah

by Wendy Kleinman

There are three pieces of matzah stacked on the table. We now break the middle matzah into two pieces. We'll wrap up the larger of the pieces and hide it before the end of dinner. This piece is called the afikomen, literally “dessert” in Greek. After dinner, the children will get to find for the afikomen! We eat matzah in memory of the quick flight of our ancestors from Egypt. As slaves, they had faced many false starts before finally being...

-- Cup #2 & Dayenu 

Dayenu

by Wendy Kleinman

One of most beloved songs in the Passover Seder is "Dayeinu". Dayeinu commemorates a long list of miraculous things God did, any one of which would have been pretty amazing just by itself. For example, “Had God only taken us out of Egypt but not punished the Egyptians – it would have been enough.” Dayeinu, translated liberally, means, “Thank you, God, for overdoing it.” Dayeinu is a reminder to never forget all the miracles in our lives. When we stand and...

Third Cup of Wine

by Wendy Kleinman

The blessing over the meal is immediately followed by another blessing over the wine: בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְיָ, אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, בּוֹרֵא פְּרִי הַגָּפֶן Baruch Atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, borei p’ree hagafen. We praise God, Ruler of Everything, who creates the fruit of the vine. Drink the third glass of wine!

Hillel's Sandwich

by Wendy Kleinman

Prepare sandwich of matza, maror, and charoset. This recalls for us what Hillel did when the Temple existed: He enwrapped the Paschal lamb, the matzo and the bitter herbs to eat them as one, in fulfillment of the Torah verse, "with matzot and maror they shall eat it. (Numbers 9:11). It also reminds us that life is an integration of the bitter and the sweet.

Ten Plagues

by Wendy Kleinman

In Talmud Tractate Megillah 10b we are told, as the Jews are singing praises to God for drowning the Egyptians, the angels wish to sing as well. God quiets the angels, saying, “The works of my hands are drowning in the sea, and you wish to sing praises?!” As we rejoice at our deliverance from slavery, we acknowledge that our freedom was hard-earned. We regret that our freedom came at the cost of the Egyptians’ suffering, for we are all human...

Afikomen

by Wendy Kleinman

Finding and eating the Afikomen | tzafoon | צָפוּן Traditionally, the Afikomen is hidden during the meal, for the children to find later. This ceremony reminds us that what is broken can be repaired and that what is lost can be regained, as long as we remember it and search for it. The playfulness of finding the afikomen also reminds us that we balance our solemn memories of slavery with a joyous celebration of freedom. As we eat the afikomen, our...

A Few of my Passover Things

by Wendy Kleinman

A Passover Song [Sung to the tune of "My favorite things"] Cleaning and cooking and so many dishes, Out with the hametz, no pasta, no knishes These are a few of our Passover things. When the plagues strike, When the lice bite, When we're feeling sad We simply remember our Passover things And then we don't feel so bad. Matzoh and karpas and chopped up haroset, Shankbones and Kiddish and Yiddish neuroses, Tante who kvetches and uncle who sings, These are...

-- Exodus Story 

Connecting Coronavirus to the Exodus

by Wendy Kleinman

Now that we've told the story, let's reflect a bit on what it means to tell it this year in particular. The experience of the Exodus was a peak of uncertainty for the Israelites. All of what they've known, all their ways of meeting their needs - they were gone. They lived through the plagues; we see that suffering came first before redemption. Then they left everything they'd known very suddenly, and even though they were slaves in Egypt and they...

Rhyming Haggadah: Karpas

by Rabbi Scott Gurdin

Our tale to tell, both happy and sad, like all great lore, some good, some bad On our table the symbols abound you needn't look far, they're all around Look on your plate, for parsley green a sign of Spring when it is seen. And somewhere near there is salt water, tears of slavery, hard work with mortar And so together, we now recall the green around, the tears that fall. Ba-ruch A-tah A-do-nai, E-lo-hei-nu Me-lech Ha-o-lam, Bo-rei pe-ree ha-a-da-mah. Oh...

Yachatz 

Yachatz

by Emma and Zachary Freeman

"Break the middle matzah on the matzah plate. This is called the Yachatz --literally-- the breaking. We break the matzah and hide one part (the Afikomen). We recognize that liberation is made by imperfect people, broken, fragmented — so don’t be waiting until you are totally pure, holy, spiritually centered, and psychologically healthy to get involved in tikkun (the healing and repair of the world). It will be imperfect people, wounded healers, who do the healing as we simultaneously work on...

The First Step: Passover as a Personal Journey

by The Global Day of Jewish Learning

Clip Text #5 – “The First Step” Source: On Being Free, by Rabbi Adin Even-Israel Steinsaltz. 1995, Jason Aronson Inc. Passover, the festival of the Exodus from Egypt, is imprinted on all the days of the year. Moreover, the "memory of the Exodus from Egypt" is mentioned on almost every festive occasion. What makes the Exodus from Egypt so important? The Jewish festivals are first and foremost historical festivals: each one is a remembrance of a certain event in Jewish history....
