The beginning of the Haggadah has us contemplating the meal we are about to eat. Although it may seem to be the opposite, we aren’t as free as we may think. Rabbi Geller moves on to the famous Four Questions, discussing the common denomenator between them, and explaining where to find the answer for them. Also analyzed - Why did G-d need to perform ten plagues if He could’ve just whisked us away on the spot?
The Jewish nation suffered incredible pain under Egyptian enslavement. Rabbi Geller details the tragic details of our history, from how we lost all hope of freedom once a new Pharaoh arose to the Jewish infants pressed into the walls in place of brick. Once the ten plagues began, that story changed. Hear some amazing aspects of these miraculous events you may not have known, and tell them to your children.
How many plagues did the Egyptians suffer at the Red Sea, and why in the world does it matter? The Jewish experience was far more pleasant, as each tribe traveled a separate path with food and drink provided from the walls on the way. Rabbi Geller looks at the three main objects we must be aware of during the Seder - Pesach, Matzah, and Marror and why they are so crucial to the Passover story.
The end of the Haggadah looks at our religion compared to other cultures and beliefs. Each generation of the world found gods or ideals they thought they could rely on. We as Jews know that the One G-d is the Ultimate deity. This value has made us search for depth in life no matter how much it seems we have. Rabbi Geller wraps up this series with a fascinating understanding of the beautiful songs at the end of the Haggadah.
The primary message of Pesach seems to contradict itself at its core. While we trumpet the call to freedom from slavery, is it not apparent that we have merely traded one master for another? And isn't Torah observance, which many consider servitude, part and parcel of the redemption? Hear a powerful message from an excellent speaker of how the Torah intertwines freedom and responsibility.
