PASSOVER RESOURCES This year, Passover begins on Saturday night. This is a slightly unusual situation, which hasn't occurred since 2008. It presents us with a variety of practical and ritual challenges. Here are a few guidelines to help you navigate: The fast of the firstborn is observed on Thursday, March 25. Please join us at 7:30am for minyan (online-only), followed immediately by our Siyyum on the same live video stream. Those who participate in a Siyyum such as this need not fast after it. If you haven't already done so, be sure to arrange for the sale of your Chametz no later than Thursday. You can do so by clicking here and filling out the form. The search for Chametz takes place on Thursday evening. For instructions, click here. The formula to recite in the morning will be delayed until Saturday. We may not possess any Chametz after 11:56am in Los Angeles on Friday morning, aside from any that we might reserve to eat on Friday and Saturday morning. The ritual destruction of Chametz takes place before 11:56am on Friday morning, without any blessing or verbal formula. Chametz which has been sold is not considered to be in our possession. All items for the Seder plate should be prepared and arranged before Shabbat. PASSOVER RESOURCES All kashering of utensils, covering of surfaces for Passover and storage of Chametz utensils must be completed before Shabbat begins. Utensils that might be used for Chametz on Shabbat are the only exception. For Shabbat meals, it is recommended that you only use kosher-for-Passover food and utensils, like any Passover meal, substituting Egg Matzah or some other "enriched" Matzah (not standard or whole-wheat Matzah) for Challah. Those who avoid "enriched Matzah" on the holiday itself should conclude eating it on Saturday by 10:54am, essentially substituting an early Shabbat brunch for lunch. Using non-kosher-for-Passover items at these meals necessitates complicated preparation, timing, cleaning and disposal. Under all circumstances, no Chametz may be eaten after 10:54am on Saturday. Any remaining Chametz must be disposed and rendered inedible by 11:56am, in a manner that does not violate Shabbat. This could include flushing small pieces down the toilet. The final formula related to the search and destruction of Chametz is recited by 11:56am in Los Angeles. Once Shabbat has begun, no Seder preparations may be made until Shabbat has concluded at 7:48pm.

Passover Resources for 2020
PASSOVER RESOURCES FOR 2020: It is strange to be celebrating Passover and liberation from bondage when so many of us are stuck in our homes due to a plague. As I saw on Facebook recently: JEWISH IRONY: But let’s also remember that on PASSOVER CANCELLED the night of the first Passover, all the Israelites were stuck in their DUE TO PLAGUE houses as well. So like our ancestors, we are staying in our homes to retell the story of our going from slavery to freedom and to remind ourselves that in this time when we are all focused so much on the epidemic, the issues of freedom haven’t gone away - they have grown. Around the world, people are still in bondage and slavery, and the issues of poverty, food insecurity, refugees and climate change now have the added threat of Covid-19. It will be hard not to be with our friends and family around the Seder table, but now more than ever, we need to remind ourselves of the values – and challenges – of freedom, and our responsibility as Jews It will be hard not to be with our to make sure freedom rings out over the friends and family around the voices of those who call for a Pharoah to Seder table, but now more than save us. We call to God, and the divine ever, we need to remind spark within each of us that knows that ourselves of the values – and freedom is the oxygen the spirit needs to challenges – of freedom. breathe, and that all of us made in the image of the Divine deserve to be free.

Running a Virtual Seder
Running a Virtual Seder In this time of Coronavirus (Covid19), concern over the health of attendees, who are often of an age which contracting the virus may pose significant health issues…. we have to adapt In short, we’ve been afflicted by another plague! Note There is no right or wrong way to do a ‘virtual Seder’ since we’ve never had the ability and the need to do such. Most Jewish ritual/observance developed over significant periods of time (3-4 weeks are not considered significant periods of time). And your family and ideas are what are important. Thus, your ideas are welcomed, encouraged, and appreciated! Make the Seder your own this year. One of the main challenges of a Seder leader is usually to ensure that everyone at the table remains engaged and participates in the ritual. This year we are mostly free from that burden. You have the rare chance to engage in the Seder in the way that works for you. There is no shame or anxiety about what works for others. Do you have a family that usually reads only in English, and you wish they would slow down and wait for you to read the Hebrew? Now is your chance. Does your family skip sections you wish they would include? You can read everything. Does your family read through the seder liturgy quickly in Hebrew without stopping to translate or discuss? Now is your chance to move as slowly as you want. Stop and read from multiple Haggadot. Sing all the songs. Use this opportunity to experiment and do something you’ve never done.

DAYENU! Illustrated by Miriam Latimer
READING A GIFT for JEWISH CHILDREN and their families. GUIDE DAYENU! Illustrated by Miriam Latimer A family is shown celebrating together, while the lyrics from one of the most well-known and best-loved Passover songs and accompanying illustrations depict the Israelites’ departure from Egyptian slavery and their exuberant walk toward freedom. JEWISH CONCEPTS If you’ve been to a Passover seder (ritual meal), you’ve probably already belted out a chorus of “Dayenu.” Bouncy and rollicking, the song is easy to pick up and very fun to sing, but it also contains an important message. The word dayenu means “it would have been enough” in Hebrew, and the song expresses deep gratitude for multiple things – not only liberation from slavery in ancient Egypt (which is what the story of Passover is all about), but also the gift of the Torah (the first five books of the Bible), which the Israelites received after they left, and the eventual return to the land of Israel. These things “make us happy,” as the refrain in this book goes, but more specifically, they make us grateful. It’s no accident that Passover is a time for expressing gratitude. Gathering together to share good food and quality time with loved ones is a hallmark of the holiday. If you’re not familiar with the song, take a moment to listen to it at pjlibrary.org/dayenu. You’ll learn it in no time – the chorus is only one word, and the tune is remarkably catchy. You might find yourself humming it even when you’re not at a seder.

Seder Song Book
© 5778 - 2018 THE WORLD’S LARGEST SEDER SONGBOOK TKS,org Rabbi Barry Dov Lerner, Editor, Collector, Author www.jewishfreeware.org / PASSOVER SONGS, OLD AND NEW Many songs - both traditional and “fun” or parody songs - have been gathered from far and near over many years. Feel free to insert them within the Seder wherever you and your Seder participants will enjoy and find them meaningful. The remainder of the Seder with songs can become a “fun conclusion” before you recite the Nirtzah. Others prefer to sing some of the traditional and “fun” songs before Nirtzah, conclude the Seder, and then add more singing depending upon the time and circumstances. This Seder Songbook is intended to complement any of the Passover Haggadah versions since 5772 - 2010. The English “fun” songs and many traditional Hebrew songs appear in a “paginated” format, one song per page inder order for you to select the songs you wish to use, OR if you download it into Davka 7 you can edit the final copy before printing.. NOTE: There will soon be at www.jewishfreeware.org different “editions” of each Passover resource : (1) a “PDF” which once printed, you can physically assemble the pages in your desired order; or (2) a “Davkawriter” edition which can be edited if opened in Davka 7 software before printing. I will be adding this year some Passover resources from previous years. I recommend you acquire Davka 7 or upgrade an earlier version of Davkawriter, and I thank Davka corporation for decades of their permission to use their resources. At our www.jewishfreeware website we identify different versions: (1) “P” in which we print each song on its own page to enable you to selectindividual songs; (2) “S” in which all songs are sequenced continuously; (3) “E” a version of the song book using only secular familiar melodies.

Ladino Versions of Quién Supiense (Eḥad Mi Yodea)
Cadernos de Estudos Sefarditas, vol. 16, Maio 2017, pp. 77-99. ISSN: 1645-1910 Ladino Versions of Quién supiense (Eḥad Mi Yodea) ORA (RODRIGUE) SCHWARZWALD Bar-Ilan University RESUMO Eḥad Mi Yodea é uma canção cumulativa hebraica constituída por questões sobre números e respostas usando conceitos judaicos. A comparação das vinte e três versões em ladino da canção Quién supiense com a versão hebraica revela diferenças em vários aspectos: 1. as frases introdutórias e conclusivas são formuladas independentemente; 2. a dimensão da canção varia em ladino; 3. os conteúdos de algumas respostas diferem da versão hebraica; 4. existem algumas variantes linguísticas. A tradição de cantar esta canção pela Páscoa é relativamente recente. A questão da originalidade das canções hebraica e ladinas já foi levantada antes. Tendo como base versões da canção em espanhol antigo e catalão, tem sido assumido que a versão ladina teria estado na origem da hebraica. A minha opinião é que as duas versões podem ter sido desenvolvidas independentemente, embora não haja dúvida de que as versões em ladino são anteriores à hebraica. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: canções cumulativas, canções de Páscoa, poesia paralitúrgica, poesia religiosa em ladino, poesia religiosa em Haketía, conceito judaico ABSTRACT Eḥad Mi Yodea is a cumulative Hebrew song asking about numbers and answering by using Jewish concepts. Twenty three Ladino versions of the song Quién supiense are compared to the Hebrew version and show differences in several respects: 1. the introductory and the concluding phrases are independently formulated; 2. the length of the song varies in Ladino; 3. the contents of some of the answers differ from the Hebrew version; 4.
