  • Aleph Beta the Seder Explained
    BROWSE BAR & BAT MITZVAH D MENU What Is the Passover Seder? What Is a Seder? The Passover Seder is a religious service held on the rst night of Passover. The Seder service is also conducted on the second night of the Pesach holiday for those living outside of Israel. The Hebrew word “Seder” (pronounced “say-dehr”) translates to “order” in English. The meaning of the word “Seder” reveals a lot about the nature of this Passover ritual. The Seder service is composed of fteen sections, all followed in a specic order. The order of the Seder is presented in the Haggadah text, along with the liturgy and instructions for the night’s many rituals. Below, the rst video of our Haggadah course introduces you the Passover Seder. You can also print out our Haggadah guide to take with you. The Meaning of the Seder Meal The order is just one part of the meaning of the Seder. The Seder is also designed to remind us of the Israelites’ experience of Egyptian slavery, and how God redeemed them from Egypt. The Seder shows us that the Passover holiday is a commemoration of both suffering and joy. Rabbi Fohrman taKes this one step further to propose that Passover is also about celebrating becoming God's chosen. Before the Seder meal can be eaten, all the Seder participants join together to recall the trials and miracles that forged the Jewish nation. The Haggadah text tells us the story of the Israelites' descent into slavery in Egypt, their suffering under Pharaoh’s rule, and God’s miraculous redemption of the Jewish people.

If this sounds Tributes rather odd to us now, it is because we have adopted the candle lighting Pages 11 method suggested by Hillel: Begin with one candle on the first night, and then, each subsequent night, add a candle so that by the last night of the News You Can Use Page 12 festival, eight candles shine bright. The idea here is that on each night of Chanukah we increase the light and the joy.
