Special Guidance for Passover 2020
APRIL 6, 2020 SPECIAL GUIDANCE FOR PASSOVER 2020 Rabbi Adam Zeff Dear friends, Every Pesah is different, but we approach the Passover season this year in extraordinarily difficult times. The story of the Exodus from Egypt asks us to identify ourselves with the suffering of the Israelites, filled with anxiety, fear, and distress, worried for their families and for their lives. This year more than any in recent memory that identification rings true. But the Jewish people have celebrated this Festival of Freedom in difficult circumstances before, and we will manage to do so this year as well! To that end, I wanted to provide some guidance and resources for these special circumstances and for changes we may need to make to our traditional celebrations as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to shape every aspect of our lives. Learning in advance How to Lead a Seder: an online resource to help prepare those of us who may unexpectedly be leading our own seder to do so. It covers: • How can we get meaning out of the haggadah this year? • What are the really essential parts of a seder? • Is it really possible to lead a seder on Zoom?? (hint: yes!) Tips on organizing a seder in the time of COVID-19 Visit www.phila.gov/COVID for more information • Text COVIDPHL to 888-777 to receive updates to your phone Call (800) 722-7112 to speak to a health care professional on the Greater Philadelphia Coronavirus Helpline 1 APRIL 6, 2020 • No (physical) guests: Following the guidance of public health authorities, we should not gather physically even in small groups except for household members.

Literacy in Medieval Jewish Culture1
Portrayals of Women with Books: Female (Il)literacy in Medieval Jewish Culture1 Katrin Kogman-Appel Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva The thirteenth century saw a new type of Hebrew book, the Passover haggadah (pl. haggadot). Bound together with the general prayer book in the earlier Middle Ages, the haggadah emerged as a separate, independent volume around that time.2 Once the haggadah was born as an individual book, a considerable number of illustrated specimens were created, of which several have come down to us. Dated to the period from approximately 1280 to 1500, these books were produced in various regions of the Iberian peninsula and southern France (Sepharad), the German lands (Ashkenaz), France, and northern Italy. Almost none of these manuscripts contain a colophon, and in most cases it is not known who commissioned them. No illustrated haggadah from the Islamic realm exists, since there the decoration of books normally followed the norms of Islamic culture, where sacred books received only ornamental embellishments. The haggadah is usually a small, thin, handy volume and contains the liturgical text to be recited during the seder, the privately held family ceremony taking place at the eve of Passover. The central theme of the holiday is the retelling of the story of Israel’s departure from Egypt; the precept is to teach it to one’s offspring.3 The haggadah contains the text to fulfill this precept. Hence this is not simply a collection of prayers to accompany a ritual meal; rather, using the 1 book and reading its entire text is the essence of the Passover holiday.

Artists who have produced experimental innovations have been motivated by aesthetic criteria: they have aimed at presenting visual perceptions. Their goals are imprecise… means that these artists rarely feel they have succeeded, and their careers are consequently often dominated by the pursuit of a single objective.

Jewish Holiday Guide Tu B’ Shvat 1 As Arepresentation Ofthenatural Cycle
Jewish Holiday Guide Tu B’Shvat 15th day of Shvat “…Just as my ancestors planted for me, so I will plant for my children (Talmud Ta’anit 23a).” Tu B’Shvat is a time when we celebrate the New Year for trees. It falls on the 15th of Shvat in the Hebrew calendar and it is a time for us to focus on our ecological responsibilities and the life cycle of renewal. The very first task that was assigned to humans by God was to care for the environment: ‘God took man and put him into the garden to work it and guard 1 it…’ (Genesis 1:15). In Israel, Tu B’shvat is usually celebrated by planting trees and holding the Tu B’shvat seder. Planting trees is a custom that was first held in 1884 in Israel due to the spiritual significance of the land of Israel and the agricultural emphasis that the Zionist brought with them to Israel. The Tu B’shvat seder is formed out of 4 sections for the 4 worlds as the Kabballah says: • The spiritual world of God represented by fire – Atzilut (nobility) • The physical world of human represented by earth – Assiyah (Doing) • The emotional world represented by air – Briyah (Creation) • The philosophical, thoughtful world represented by water – Yetzirah (Making) Each section of the seder also represents one of the four seasons, and mixtures of red and white wine are drunk in different amounts as a representation of the natural cycle. Tu B’ Shvat Tu Purim 14th day of Adar “The Feast of Lots” Purim is one of the most joyous and fun holidays on the Jewish calendar, as it celebrates the story of two heroes, Esther and Mordecai, and how their courage and actions saved the Jewish people living in Persia from execution.

Haggadah Portions That Are Talmud Quotes Source Sheet by Emanuel Ben-David
Haggadah portions that are Talmud quotes Source Sheet by Emanuel Ben-David We use two Hebrew words to describe the Ritual of the first night of Passover: ,SEDER - which means order; not a command, but order of things. Also - סֵ דֶ ר changing status of a situation from chaos to orderly, organized (like changing one's status from illegal immigrant to legal resident). Haggadah - from the root that means to tell. As a noun, it would be - הֲ ָ ג דַ ה interpreted as A Story. Lets examine how this word is connected to the commandments that order (dictate, not SEDER...) us to tell a story. שמות י״ג:ג׳ Exodus 13:3 (ג) וַיֹּ֨אמֶ ר מֹשֶׁ֜ ה אֶ ל־הָﬠָ֗ ם זָכ֞ וֹר אֶ ת־ ,And Moses said to the people (3) “Remember this day, on which you הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ אֲשֶׁ֨ ר יְצָאתֶ֤ם מִ מִּ צְ רַ֙יִם֙ went free from Egypt, the house of מִ בֵּ ֣ י ת ֲﬠ בָ דִ֔ י ם כִּ֚ י בְּ חֹ֣ זֶק יָ֔ ד הוֹצִ ֧ יא יְהֹוָ ֛ה bondage, how the LORD freed you אֶתְכֶ֖ם מִ זֶּ֑ה וְ ֥לֹא יֵאָכֵ֖ל חָמֵֽ ץ׃ from it with a mighty hand: no leavened bread shall be eaten. שמות י״ג: ח׳ Exodus 13:8 (ח) ְ ו הִ ַ גּ דְ תָּ ֣ לְ בִ נְ �֔ בַּ יּ֥ וֹם הַ ה֖ וּא לֵ אמֹ֑ ר And you shall explain to your (8) בַּ ﬠֲב֣ וּר זֶ֗ ה ﬠָ שָׂ ֤ ה יְ הוָ ה֙ לִ֔ י בְּ צֵ אתִ ֖ י son on that day, ‘It is because of what the LORD did for me when I מִ מִּ צְ רָ ֽ יִ ם ׃ ’.went free from Egypt V'Higad'tah - it is not a simple saying, sounding, verbalizing; it is - ָ ְ ו הִ ַ ג דְ תַ Source Sheet created on Sefaria by Rabbi Emanuel Ben-David 1 telling the story in a way that it is understood and verify that indeed it is.

THE DEEPER MEANING OF PESACH RABBI DEBORAH SILVER INTRODUCTION h, the Pesach seder! Tablecloths stained with spilled wine, Haggadot brought down from distant closets, the seder Aplate polished up once again. Aren’t we glad to be here? Yet Pesach runs the risk of being rather like Ebenezer Scrooge’s Christmas Past - hung about with pleasant memories that distance rather than include us. In the same way, the seder runs the risk of being on the wrong side of predictable - boring rather than reassuring, sentimental rather than genuinely feeling, complacent rather than inspiring. Perhaps part of the reason for this is that the seder is one of the most consistently observed Jewish practices. Most of us can probably remember seders from our childhood, and there are those of us who might even have the occasion commemorated in photographs or on film. But this is a festival which bears a closer examination. The story of the birth of the Jewish people is permeated with rich layers of meaning. In this essay we will shake out the crumbs, as it were, and see what we can make of the pattern on the tablecloth. To begin with, let’s look at the number of times that we mention the number four at the seder: We drink four cups of wine.
