Each item has its own significance.</p>\n\n<p> <em>Maror</em>  – The bitter herb. This symbolizes the harshness of lives of the Jews in Egypt. My parents made their weapons-grade horseradish this year—please hold it up to the camera!</p>\n\n<p> <em>Charoset</em>  – A delicious mix of sweet wine, apples, cinnamon and nuts that is meant to resemble the mortar that enslaved Hebrews used to construct buildings under bondage.</p>\n\n<p> <em>Karpas</em>  – A green vegetable, usually parsley, is a reminder of the green sprouting up all around us during spring. We'll be dipping it into saltwater later.</p>\n\n<p> <em>Zeroah </em> – A roasted lamb or shank bone symbolizing the sacrifice made at the great temple on Passover. None of us got lambs, but my parents have a duck bone. hold that up, please!</p>\n\n<p> <em>Beitzah</em>  – The egg symbolizes a different holiday offering that was brought to the temple. Since eggs are the first item offered to a mourner after a funeral, some say it also evokes a sense of mourning for the destruction of the temple.</p>\n\n<p> <em>Orange</em>  - We have an orange! This is a more recent addition to the seder plate; it  represents inclusion in Judaism: not only for women, but for Jews of color, queer folks, disabled folks, and interfaith families.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Matzah</strong></p>\n\n<p>Matzah is the unleavened bread we eat to remember that when the jews fled Egypt, they didn’t even have time to let the dough rise on their bread. Under normal circumstances, we would rid our homes of all bread products, but this is a weird friggin year, and a great time to talk about the principle of Pikuach Nefesh, which means 'the saving of a life'. It's Rule Zero of Judaism—if someone's life is endangered, it is permissible to break every religious stricture in order to protect them. So I'm not throwing out our pasta stockpile. God can deal with it.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Elijah’s Cup</strong></p>\n\n<p>The fifth ceremonial cup of wine poured during the Seder. It is left untouched in honor of the prophet Elijah, who, according to tradition, will arrive one day as an unknown guest to herald the advent of the Messiah. We will open the door to let Elijah in this year, but even a prophet of the Almighty needs to maintain appropriate social distancing.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Miriam’s Cup</strong></p>\n\n<p>Another relatively new Passover tradition is that of Miriam’s cup, which we fill with water to represent Miriam's Well, the miraculous source of water that was said to follow Moses's sister Miriam through the desert. </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": 40, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "What's on the table (2020) | Passover haggadah by David Rheinstrom", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

We now break the middle matzah into two pieces. The host should wrap up the larger of the pieces and, at some point between now and the end of dinner, hide it. This piece is called the afikomen, which I had always accepted as meaning 'dessert' in Greek, but really, more accurately the term <em>epikomion</em>  means 'after-dinner entertainment', which makes a ton of sense, because it's funny to watch your friends and family scramble around your house like chickens in order to find a piece of mediocre flatbread. I lied to you, because this piece of matzah is not actually the afikomen. I have already hidden the true afikomen somewhere in this apartment. It is not in our bedroom, nor is it in the bathroom. Those are your only clues.</p><p>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 let go. So when the word of their freedom came, they took whatever dough they had and ran with it before it had the chance to rise, leaving it looking something like matzah.</p><p>[Uncover and hold up the three pieces of matzah and say:]</p><p>This is the bread of affliction which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt. All who are hungry, come and eat; all who are needy, come and celebrate Passover with us. This year we are here; next year we will be in Israel. This year we are slaves; next year we will be free.</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": 30, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Yachatz | Passover haggadah by David Rheinstrom", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.

This, it must be said, is absolutely metal.</p>\n\n<p>Elijah is an important figure in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam! But his role in Judaism is as a herald of the messiah, a figure who increases or decreases in importance depending on your level of religious stricture. Most non-Orthodox Jews have come to think of the messianic age as more of a metaphor, or a material utopia that can be achieved through concerted action. There's the conceit in Judaism of  <em>Tikkun Olam</em> —repairing the world—that slots into this reading of the messiah very nicely. It is an obligation that we have to do our part to make the world a better place for all living things. Science fiction author Max Gladstone likes to say, \"Work for the liberation of all sentient beings,\" which is a Buddhist thing, but it's a sentiment I'm only too happy to appropriate.</p>\n\n<p>We refill our glasses one last time, and fill an additional glass for the prophet Elijah. It's traditional here to open the door to invite him in, to usher in the possibilities of a better future. And you sing a little song! and then we'll bless and drink the fourth and final glass of wine.</p>\n\n<p><strong>אֵלִיָּֽהוּ הַנָּבִיא, אֵלִיָּֽהוּ הַתִּשְׁבִּיאֵלִיָּֽהוּ, אֵלִיָּֽהוּ,אֵלִיָּֽהוּ הַגִּלְעָדִי</strong></p>\n\n<p><strong>בִּמְהֵרָה בְיָמֵֽנוּ יָבוֹא אֵלֵֽינוּ</strong></p>\n\n<p><strong>עִם מָשִֽׁיחַ בֶּן דָּוִד</strong></p>\n\n<p><strong>עִם מָשִֽׁיחַ בֶּן דָּוִד</strong></p>\n\n<p>Eliyahu hanavi<br />\nEliyahu hatishbi<br />\nEliyahu, Eliyahu, Eliyahu hagiladi<br />\nBimheirah b’yameinu, yavo eileinu<br />\nIm mashiach ben-David,<br />\nIm mashiach ben-David</p>\n\n<p>Elijah the prophet, the returning, the man of Gilad:<br />\nreturn to us speedily,<br />\nin our days with the messiah,<br />\nson of David.</p>\n\n<p><strong>The Fourth Glass of Wine</strong></p>\n\n<p>As we come to the end of the seder, we drink one more glass of wine.
