According to one explanation, the three matzos correspond to Kohen, Levi, and Yisroel. It is peculiar, then, to break the middle matzah, as the tribe of Levi was not even enslaved in Egypt.<br />\n The leader of the Jewish people, Moshe Rabbeinu from Shevet Levi, was chosen, because despite growing up in the comfort of the palace, he went out and felt the pain of his brethren. Perhaps we purposely break the middle matzah to show that even though the members of Levi did not physically suffer, they too endured the pain of Klal Yisroel and felt broken. This idea lends itself to being a most appropriate introduction to הא לחמא עניא. Just like Moshe Rabbeinu and Shevet Levi felt the pain of their brothers, we too do the same today as we proclaim, כל דכפין ייתי וייכל, כל דצריך ייתי ויפסח, anyone that is hungry should come and join. Yes, it is too late now to actually call in the guests, but it is not too late to feel the pain of those suffering and commit ourselves to do more for others!- Rabbi Moshe Don Kestenbaum</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": "Yachatz", "slug": "yachatz" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 132, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Yachatz devar Torah | Passover haggadah by Seth jacobs", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

The Alshich Hakadosh questions why in the world would we knock out the teeth of the evil and wicked son?! It would seem that we should spread the most love and care to this son?!! He explains beautifully that we are actually bringing him closer and showing him who he truly is. He explains that by knocking out the “שניו “ from רשע, you are left with צדיק. The gematria of the word רשע is 570. The gematria of the word שניו is 366. If you take .צדיק and subtract 366, you are left with 204 which is the gematria of 570 </p>\n\n<p>The goal is to show him that even though he might have made some terrible mistakes and messed up, down to his core he is still truly a צדיק and someone special in Hashem’s eyes. How many times do we hear of people who say and think - “after everything I have done, Hashem wants nothing to do with me”. This explains the Alshich, is the exact opposite approach to how we must view our own past mistakes and missteps. We must tell our friends and family members to view those errors as something outside of us, as an evil spirit that got us to do something wrong, but not Chas V’Shalom as who we are. We are the princes and princesses, the kings and queens of Hashem’s Beloved Nation and we must never ever forget that.- Rabbi Ari Mirzoeff</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": "-- Four Children", "slug": "four-children" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 120, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Arba banim devar torah | Passover haggadah by Seth jacobs", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

At the end of mesechet Megillah the chachamim were standing by the destruction of the beit hamikdash. When they saw a ram come out they started crying, but rabbi Akiva started laughing.

The נצי׳׳ב points out that if the primary of יציאת מצרים is that we are trying to מחזק our אמונה and חכמים + נבונים are people who already have very strong אמונה then why is it that they need to be involved at all in סיפור יציאת מצרים? The נצי׳׳ב says that the מצוה applies to everyone because when ה׳ gives us a מצוה it’s not up to us to question whether the מצוה should apply to us or not. The נצי׳׳ב gives a משל just like the human body there are some limbs which are very critical and some which don’t seem necessary at all, but even when you remove the unnecessary limbs in the body it will upset the entire equilibrium of the body and how the body functions. So too with the מצוות-some seem important and some seem less important, but still even when you take away the “unimportant מצוות” it upsets the way the whole “body” of מצוות interacts with each other and the whole way we practice the religion. </b></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": "-- Exodus Story", "slug": "exodus-story" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 78, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Avadim hayinu Devar Torah | Passover haggadah by Seth jacobs", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

People experience all kinds of unnatural circumstances and the question is do they see them as normal. The hope that people have for redemption is saying their current situation as not normal and not how they are supposed to be. They jews were freed because they realized that wasn’t who they were they should be more and they will be more. </p>\n\n<p>Our current Galus shouldn’t be seen as normal we should realize we are expected to be more and should be more. </p>\n\n<p>The reason we eat ָמרוֹר is to remind us of the afflictions that our forefathers endured while they were in Egypt. In Rabbi Nebenzhal’s Haggadah, on page קה, he asks if that is the case, why did the generation who was leaving Egypt have to eat ָמרוֹר? They certainly already knew what happened - as they went through it themselves! The gemara in Rosh Hashana daf 11 says that the Jews in Egypt stopped doing their slave work on ראש השנה, and now, at the time of Pesach, over half a year passed without them doing work. Rabbi Nebenzhal explains that while this time period may seem short and insignificant, the Jews almost forgot the pain that they suffered, and had to remind themselves again with the ָמרוֹר . This is such a powerful lesson- not just in regards to moments of hardship, but also when we have inspirational or motivational moments in our lives that can and should change us, that unfortunately, over time, fizzle out. As time passes, we lose that feeling and begin to forget what we went through- for good and for bad. We need to act on these moments immediately and place reminders in our lives, just like the Jews who left Egypt did with the ָמרוֹר . This idea can clearly be seen in Maggid. The topic of Marror is followed by ְבָּכל דּוֹר וָדוֹר ַחיָּב אָָדם ִלְראוֹת ֶאת ַעְצמוֹ ְכִּאלּוּ הוּא יָָצא ִמִמְּצַריִם - “in each generation, everyone needs to see himself as he was in ִמְּצַריִם.” The רמב”ם in his haggadah changes the word ִלְראוֹת - “to see,” to להראות - “to show,” meaning every generation needs to act , or show , that they were in ִמּ ְצ ַר יִ ם . Not simply <i>see </i>themselves as if they were there , but rather <i>show </i>that they were! This is the key to keeping inspiration, or in the case of the מרור, the bitter feeling going. When the feeling turns into a memory, you lose the inspiration, but if you can keep it in action, you can maintain that feeling forever. -Rabbi Yisrael Feld</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": "Maror", "slug": "maror" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 67, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Maror devar Torah | Passover haggadah by Seth jacobs", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

He split into three words with ראשי תיבות. I could have split it up into five words with two ראשי תיבות at a time. Or have two words with five ראשי תיבות at a time. What’s the brilliance and the insight of splitting it up into three? What is it teaching us that we don’t already know? The נצי׳׳ב says that when we pay attention to the ד׳ לשונות של גאולה- why would you say the same thing in four different ways? The נצי׳׳ב says that calling it ד׳ לשונות is a misnomer. This is not just four different ways of saying the same thing. It is four stages of גאולה. The first stage of גאולה is “והוצאתי אתכם מתחת סבלת מצרים”- we were under tremendous pressure slave labor, and הקב׳׳ה stopped the סבלת מצרים. We were still עבדים after the first stage of יציאת מצרים, but we were no longer suffering under the סבלת מצרים. The second stage is “והצלתי אתכם מעבדתם”- HaShem saves us from the עבודה itself. Our עבדות/slavery ended, but we were still in מצרים under their political control. Stage three of the “גאולה is וגאלתי אתכם”- HaShem took us out of מצרים. However, we have not received the תורה or have become the עם הנבחר yet. Stage four is “ולקחתי אתכם לי לעם”- HaShem chose us as the עם הנבחר. These are four steps in the גאולה process. The נצי׳׳ב says that this is exactly what we are highlighting in דצ׳׳ך עד׳׳ש באחב. If you look at the changes in language of the פסוקים and how פרעה interacts with the Jewish people you will see the transition between the different stages. Throughout the first three מכות, the Jews were still תחת סבלת מצרים; nothing changed. That is why it says after the first set it said “ולא שמע אלהם”- the מצרים and פרעה paid no attention to them. Starting with the fourth מכה, Pharaoh decided to lighten up the work and we are only told “ולא שלח את העם” (he didn’t send them away from their slavery). Still not yet a real people, just an “עם,” but no longer תחת סבלת מצרים. Starting with ברד, he stops working the Jews entirely. Though they are still in מצרים, it says “ולא שלח את־בני ישראל”. They are no longer just a slave nation, but now have an identity. At this point they are no longer slaves; they are בני ישראל. However, פרעה has not yet sent them out of מצרים. Only after מכת בכורות does פרעה agree to send them out of מצרים. The significance of דצ׳׳ך עד׳׳ש באח׳׳ב traces the steps of the גאולה at least up until the actual leaving of מצרים.</b></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": "-- Ten Plagues", "slug": "ten-plagues" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 52, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "ten plauge devar torah | Passover haggadah by Seth jacobs", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
