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.

  • A Trilingual Humanist Haggadah for Passover
    A Trilingual Humanist Haggadah for Passover Compiled and edited by Cecilia Kremer and Sandra Mayo We have come together to honor our Jewish deep historic roots and its old important memories. Each of us is an extension of the past. We are more than individuals. We have connections. We receive our inheritance; we leave our legacy. We are here to remember the old story of the liberation of our people from slavery in Egypt (Mitzraim), a great struggle for freedom and dignity. We are here also to remember all people – Jews and non-Jews – who are still struggling for their freedom. To set the tone for the night, let us sing: Hee-nay Ma Tov ִהנֵּה ַמה טוֹב ַוּמה ִנָּעים ֶשׁ ֶבת ִאָחים ַגּם יַ ַחד Hine(y) ma tov u’ma-nayim Shevet ach-im gam ya-chad Behold, how good and pleasant it is For brothers and sisters to live together in unity 1 Welcome to our Seder Bienvenidos a nuestro Séder We come from many places. Our collective experience encompasses different cultures, faiths, traditions, and beliefs. We are in so many ways fundamentally different from one another. But just as we are different, so are we alike. We are all capable of loving, caring, being compassionate and empathic. We are all capable of hating, fearing, being blinded by prejudice and xenophobia. We all share feelings. Feelings of joy, feelings of sadness, feelings of wholeness, feelings of pain. Our lives are defined by the contrast between sweet moments and moments of sorrow. In spite of all that makes us different, let us be capable of sharing and receiving from one another.

  • Sefaria: Ha Lachma Anya Contributed by Stephanie Source
    Sefaria: Ha Lachma Anya Contributed by Stephanie Source: This is the bread of haste....which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt .Not the bread of affliction but the bread of haste. Matzah was the food that the people ate when they were liberated, not while they were enslaved. While most commentators associate Matzah with slavery and oppression, Rabbi Epstein believes that it is more closely connected with Israel’s liberation. The Israelites did not eat Matzah in Egypt. In fact in Numbers, 11:5 the Israelites tell Moses that the food in Egypt was plentiful: “We remember the fish we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic.” (There is no mention of Matzah in this verse.) When the Haggadah says that they ate the “Lechem Oni” in Egypt, it does not mean literally “in Egypt” but rather in the vicinity of Egypt when the people left the land. All who are hungry come and eat; all who are needy come and celebrate Passover .While these two statements sound repetitive, they contain two different types of invitations. The first statement is for those suffering from hunger while the second statement is for those who have food but lack the necessary provisions to celebrate Passover. Rabbi Epstein understands the second statement to be an invitation to join in the celebration of the holiday. “Vayifsach” is not a reference to the Passover offering but rather a verb formed from the proper noun “Pesach,” meaning to celebrate Passover. We find a basis for this interpretation in Maimonides’ version of the Haggadah.

  • Haggadah Will Transcend and Inspire Us to Take Our Own Personal Journey
    Kadesh—sanctification of the day U’rhats—washing, without the blessing Karpas—parsley Yahats—breaking the middle matzah Maggid—telling of the story Rochtsa—washing, with the blessing Motsi Matzah—blessing for eating and matzah Maror—blessing for bitter herbs Korech—Hillel’s sandwich Shulhan Orech—FOOD! Tsafun—dessert, eating the Afikomen Barech—birkhat ha-mazon, blessing after the meal Hallel—Psalms of praise Nirtsa—conclusion INTRODUCTION by Rabbi Cassi Kail Tonight, we retell the story of our people. It is a tale filled with hardship and triumph, suffering and celebration. We lean into the entire experience. After a challenging year we may not want to taste bitter foods or focus on the harshness of slavery. Our tradition implores us to do so anyway. Through reflection and storytelling, we allow ourselves to heal, find meaning, and ultimately to grow into better versions of ourselves. Our Seder also includes many opportunities to rejoice. We take pride in knowing that our people held onto hope and acted with resilience and courage even when the world seemed dark. As important as storytelling is, equally significant is the moral calling it inspires. The Seder reminds us that although we are free, there is still oppression and suffering in this world. It is up to us to stand up to the Pharaohs of our world and fight for the stranger's dignity and well-being. After all, we know what it is to be a stranger. If we allow ourselves to feel our people's story deeply, we can immerge humbled, motivated, and ready to open our hearts to others with compassion and love.

  • Denim Seder-Suggested Supplementary Readings
    Denim Seder-Suggested Supplementary Readings At the Beginning of the Seder Domestic Violence There are some women in our communities who are still struggling to be saved from violent relationships, or have only recently found freedom. Our Passover story of slavery and redemption reminds us of the terrible oppression, that results from domestic violence in the Jewish community and beyond. Victims of domestic violence are finally finding a voice and recognition within the greater Jewish community. What was once imagined to be non-existent in Jewish households is now acknowledged and hopefully will be eradicated soon. From https://rac.org/sites/default/files/Pesach-%20A%20Season%20for%20Justice_0.pdf Ha Lachma Anya-The Bread of Affliction Ha Lachma Anya This is the bread of affliction, the poor bread, which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt. This is the bread of affliction, that reminds of all whose suffering we do not see Let all who are hungry come and eat. Let all who need support find it Let all who are in want, share the hope of Passover. Let us reach out to others and share our hope As we celebrate here, we join with our people everywhere. We are here for you This year we celebrate here. We care about you Next year in the land of Israel. We believe you and support you Now we are still in bonds. This year the abuse continues Next year may we all be free. Next year may we all be free of abuse The Four Questions Mah nishtanah ha-lailah ha-zeh mi-kol ha-lailot? Why is this night different from all other nights? We know the traditional answers to this question: On this night, we eat matzah and bitter herbs, we dip and we recline.
