"user_image": "",
"user_image_original": "",
"body": "<p>Let’s face it, the Passover Seder is weird. We’re supposed to be telling the story of the ancient Israelites journey from slavery to freedom- but instead of just telling a neat little story with a beginning, middle and end, we do a whole bunch of other seemingly random stuff. We sing songs, drink wine, wash our hands, eat parsley, break matzah, ask questions, talk about how we would tell the story to four imaginary kids, start the story, offer commentary, read the plagues, sing some more, drink more wine, wash our hands again, eat a Hillel sandwich, eat egg soup, eat gefilte fish, play hide and seek with matzah, drink even more wine, open the door for some dude who never comes, drink still more wine, sing about a goat, and then say “hey, let’s do the whole thing again next year in Jerusalem” which we’re pretty much sure is a metaphor but we’re just tipsy enough to believe it. Then we spend a week hungover eating matzah. </p>\n\n<p>It seems like a lot. After all, if the commandment is to tell the story why not take turns telling the story start to finish and be done with it. The whole thing could be over in 20 minutes. We wouldn’t even have to get together. It’s easily one of those meetings that could be an email. </p>\n\n<p>But, no, that’s not what we do. So why not? Well I’m sure people who are way wiser than me have had a lot of really smart things to say on the subject. I will offer simply this- we don’t tell the story from start to finish and done, because we can’t tell that story because we are still and forever living through and beyond it. I know, deep right?</p>\n\n<p>Sure, we all know the beginning- the ancient Israelites went to Egypt to find a better life during a famine in Canaan. They grew and multiplied in Egypt, and were enslaved by the Egyptians. They cried out for freedom and God led them from Egypt with a strong hand and outstretched arm and with Moses as his prophet and Chief Israelite wrangler (and you thought herding cats was hard). God brought them safely through the Red Sea into the desert and then…what? Did they live happily ever after in peace and freedom in the plentiful land of Israel. Well…not exactly. If you’re curious about the details of the story, you can read the rest of the Tanach (Old Testament) and 3000 years of Jewish history. For the tl;dr version just look around. We are living the next chapter of the history of the Jewish people and perhaps of all people still journeying to freedom, and how it ends, well that’s up to all of us. </p>\n\n<p>So maybe that’s the point of the Passover Seder. Maybe we’re not telling the story of our ancient past, but reminding ourselves of our part in the story. We eat matzah and marror to remind us where we came from. We recline cause, hey, at least we’re not slaves any more! We add an orange to the Seder plate as our hearts and minds expand,, and we open the door with the hope of a better tomorrow right outside.</p>\n\n<p>So why do I say all this? Well, this is our third zoom Seder. What was born of necessity is now a choice. It is how we can come together from our distant corners of America in a manner that is safe, accessible, and available to all of us. Is it perfect? No. But while we keep the door open to future possibilities, let’s take a moment to enjoy this chapter of the story. Hey, we’re here, we’re alive, and we’ve got plenty of toilet paper. Can Elijah be far behind?</p>\n\n<p>So if everyone is comfortable reclining at home by their screens, and has a glass of wine handy, let’s begin by saying She’hechiyanu as we celebrate the miracle of coming together. <br />\n </p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><strong>בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יי אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, שֶׁהֶחֱיָנוּ וְקִיְּמָנוּ וְהִגִּיעָנוּ לַזְּמַן הַזֶה</strong></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span> <em>Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu melech ha-olam,<br />\nshe’hecheyanu v'ki'manu v'higi-anu laz'man hazeh.</em> </span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span>Praised are you, Adonai, our God, Ruler of the universe,<br />\nwho has sustained us, maintained us and enabled us to reach this moment in life</span></span></p>",

As we tell this story of triumph, we sing the words of <i>Dayeinu</i> (“It would have been enough”), for just a single act of love from God would have sufficed, and yet God continues to show us compassion.

It also reminds us that each of our lives is the cumulative result of many blessings, small and large:</span></span></span></p>\n\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful that we are together on this night as a family ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful that we are together to share this moment ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful that we are together, alive and healthy ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful that we are able to eat together ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful that we have a light shining upon us ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful for everything and everyone that we have ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful for all that has touched our lives ~Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span><span>We are grateful for all that have come before us, and those that can not be with us tonight, and to them we drink the second glass of wine together ~ Dayenu</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><strong><span><span><span>But not quite yet!</span></span></span></strong></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>There are still several symbols on our seder plate we haven’t explained fully. Rabban Gamaliel would say that whoever didn’t explain the shank bone, matzah and <i>maror</i> (bitter herbs) hasn’t done Passover justice. We touched on these briefly earlier tonight.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><strong>The shank bone</strong> represents the “<i>pesach</i>,” the special lamb sacrifice made in the days of the Temple for the Passover holiday. During the final plague, the Israelites were instructed to smear lamb’s blood on the lintel of their homes so the angel of death would pass over their homes. The sacrifice and now the shank bone are called <i>pesach</i>, from the Hebrew word meaning “to pass over,” because God passed over the houses of the Israelites when inflicting plagues upon their Egyptian oppressors.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><strong>The matzah</strong> on our table reminds us that when the Israelites were finally freed from bondage, they rushed to leave Egypt before Pharaoh could change his mind. As they fled, the dough they made for bread did not have time to fully rise, so they ate flat matzah instead. During Passover, we also eat matzah and refrain from eating anything that is leavened or can rise.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><strong>The bitter herbs</strong> symbolize the bitterness of slavery, the life of hard labor the Israelites experienced.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span><strong>But what about the Orange? </strong></span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>During our Passover seder, we are reminded over and over again to tell this important story of freedom to each other and to those who will come after us. We do this to remember, to feel a connection to the story of the Israelites so we will never take our freedom for granted. Every generation is plagued with different challenges to freedom, and our story takes on new meanings throughout hundreds and hundreds of years. In the modern era, alongside the symbols of old, newer elements have been added to many seder plates to remind us of present-day struggles and triumphs.</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span>The orange on the seder plate has come to symbolize full inclusion in modern day Judaism: not only for women, but also for people with disabilities, intermarried couples, and the LGBT Community. But why an orange?</span></p>\n\n<p><span><span><span>The contemporary folklore has it that scholar Susannah Heschel, daughter of Abraham Joshua Heschel, a preeminent modern Jewish philosopher, </span></span></span>was lecturing in Miami, and, while she was speaking of feminism, an Orthodox man supposedly shouted that <strong>“a woman belongs on the bimah [pulpit] as much as an orange belongs on the seder plate.”</strong> And so, we all added the orange as an act of resistance; a symbol of women’s rights.</p>\n\n<p>Recently, some new symbols have been added to the Seder plate:</p>\n\n<p>-An olive to symbolize peace</p>\n\n<p>-A cup of strong lack coffee on the table to \"wake us up\" to the many problems in the world that need to be solved (also good if you've been getting ahead of your four cups of wine\"</p>\n\n<p>-A clear, empty glass fo those whose plights are largely invisible, who go unseen, even as they are right before us in plain sight.</p>\n\n<p>We add these symbols and make the Seder our own because:</p>\n<span><span><span><b>In every generation, everyone is obligated to see themselves</b></span></span></span></div>\n\n<table>\n\t<tbody>\n\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t<td>\n\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><span><span><span><b>as though they personally left Egypt.</b></span></span></span></p>\n\t\t\t</td>\n\t\t</tr>\n\t</tbody>\n</table>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span>בְּכָל דּוֹר וָדוֹר חַיָב אָדָם לִרְאוֹת אֶת עַצְמוֹ כְּאִלוּ הוּא יֶָָצֶָא מִמִּצְרַָים , שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: וְהִגַּדְתָּ לְבִנְךָ בַּיוֹם הַהוּא לֵאמֹר, בַּעֲבוּר זֶה עָשָׂה יי לִי בְּצֵאתִי מִמִּצְרַים . לֹא אֶת אֲבוֹתֵינוּ בִּלְבָד גָּאַל הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, אֶלָּא אַף אוֹתָנוּ גָּאַל עִמָּהֶם, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: וְאוֹתָנוּ הוֹצִיא מִשָׁם , לְמַעַן הָבִיא אֹתָנוּ, לָתֶת לָנוּ אֶת הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר נִשָׁבַּע לַאֲבֹתֵנוּ</span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span> <em>B’chol dor vador chayav adam lirot et atzmo k’ilu hu yatza mimitzrayim, shene’emar: v’higadta l’vincha bayom hahu leimor, ba’avur zeh asah Adonai li b’tzeiti mimitzrayim.

That’s why the Torah says, “God brought us out from there in order to lead us to and give us the land promised to our ancestors.”</span></span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span>Therefore we are obligated, to thank, sing the Hallel, praise, glorify, exalt, honor, bless, elevate and raise our voices for joy to the holy one, Blessed be He, Who performed all these miracles for our ancestors and therefore for us! You brought us from human servitude to freedom, from sorrow to joy, for a time of mourning to a festive day, from deep darkness to great light and from slavery to redemption! In Your presence we renew our singing as in ancient days: Hallel-lu-yah Sing Hallel to God. Those that are comfortable can sing along in Hebrew.</span></span></p>\n\n<p><span><span>Hallel Excerpts</span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span>הַלְלוּיָהּ הַלְלוּ עַבְדֵי יי, הַלְלוּ אֶת שֵׁם יי. יְהִי שֵׁם יי מְבֹרָךְ מֵעַתָּה וְִעַד עוֹלָם. מִמִּזְרַח שֶׁמֶשׁ עַד מְבוֹאוֹ מְהֻלָּל שֵׁם יי. רָם עַל כָּל גּוֹיִם יי, עַל הַשָּׁמַיִם כְּבוֹדוֹ. מִי כַּיי אֱלֹהֵינוּ הַמַּגְבִּיהִי לָשָׁבֶת, הַמַּשְׁפִּילִי לִרְאוֹת בַּשָּׁמַיִם וּבָאָרֶץ? מְקִימִי מֵעָפָר דָּל, מֵאַשְׁפֹּת יָרִים אֶבְיוֹן, לְהוֹשִׁיבִי עִם נְדִיבִים, עִם נְדִיבֵי עַמּוֹ. מוֹשִׁיבִי עֲקֶרֶת הַבַּיִת, אֵם הַבָּנִים שִׂמְחָה. הַלְלוּיָהּ</span></span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:right;\"><span><span> <em>Halleluyah hal’lu avdei Adonai, hal’lu et sheim Adonai.
