A Simplified Passover Haggadah — 2020 Edition A Simplified Passover Haggadah — 2020 Edition 1. Light the Candles Baruch atah adonai, eloheinu ruach ha’olam asher kid’shanu b’mitzvotav v’tzivanu l’hadlik ner shel yom tov. Blessed are You, Lord our God, Spirit of the Universe, who have sanctified us with Your commandments and commanded us to kindle the holiday lights. 2. Kadesh (we bless the wine) Baruch atah adonai eloheinu ruach ha’olam boreh pree hagafen. Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, who creates the fruit of the vine. Baruch atah adonai eloheinu ruach ha’olam, shehecheyanu, v'kiyemanu vehigiyanu la-z'man hazeh. Blessed are You, Lord our God, Spirit of the universe, who has kept us in life, sustained us, and enabled us to reach this moment. 3. Urchatz (wash hands: we’re not going to do this now, but we hope you’re doing it every chance you get!) 1 4. The Four Questions Mah Nishtana halayla hazeh mikol haleylot, mikol haleylot Sheb’chol haleylot anu ochlim chametz umatzah, chametz umatzah Halaylah hazeh, halaylah hazeh kulo matzah Halaylah hazeh, halaylah hazeh kulo matzah Sheb’chol haleylot anu ochlim she’ar yerakot, she’ar yerakot Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh maror Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh maror Sheb’chol haleylot eyn anu matbilin afilu pa’am echat, afilu pa’am echat Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh sh'tae p'amim Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh sh'tae p'amim Sheb’chol haleylot anu ochlim beyn yoshvin uveyn mesubin, beyn yoshvin uveyn mesubin Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh kulanu mesubin Halayla hazeh, halayla hazeh kulanu mesubin On all other nights we eat either bread or matzah; on this night, why only matzah? On all other nights we eat any kind of vegetables; on this night why bitter herbs? On all other nights we don’t dip even once; on this night why do we dip twice? On all other nights we eat in any position; on this night why are we reclining? [Answer the questions.] 5. Four Types of Children Instead of talking about the four types of children we usually discuss at Passover, let’s talk about the four ways people may be reacting to the covid-19 pandemic and its impact on our lives. 1. The consummate hand-washer, knob disinfecter, and social distancer who’s doing everything right, including maintaining stockpiles of TP and hand sanitizer. 2. The panicked/overwhelmed/devastated citizen struggling to hold it together in the face of job loss, financial hardship, risk to health and safety, and helping loved ones access vital services. 3. The grumpy person who resists all expert recommendations and resents the inconvenience. 4. The befuddled individual who’s having trouble grasping that any of this is real. How can we support each type of person in getting through this challenging time? 2 6. Maggid (we tell the story) Reader 1: We were slaves in Egypt, and our lives were miserable. But God visited Moses and told him to demand that the Pharaoh set us free. When Pharaoh refused, God unleashed a se- ries of plagues to punish the Egyptian people. 1. Blood Dam 2. Frogs Tzephardayah 3. Vermin Keenim 4. Beasts Arov 5. Cattle Disease Dever 6. Boils Sheheen 7. Hail Barad 8. Locusts Arbeh 9. Darkness Choshech 10. Slaying of the firstborn Makat Bechorot Reader 2: After the first nine plagues, Pharaoh refused Moses’ demands. But after the final plague, he gave us our freedom. We gathered up our belongings, took a leap of faith, and hur- ried to leave Egypt before Pharaoh changed his mind. Which of course he did, sending his army to chase us. When we came to the sea of reeds, Moses lifted his staff and the waters parted, allowing us to cross safely to the other side. When the Egyptian soldiers followed, God released the waters, drowning them. Reader 3: This was only the beginning of our difficult journey. We wandered in the desert for 40 years, not knowing how we would survive and when we would reach the promised land. But God provided for us by sending us manna to eat, and Miriam’s well followed us, giving us water to drink. And at last we came to the promised land and rebuilt our lives. This is a story that we’ve repeated every year for millennia, to make sure we never forget. Even in the darkest times, such as during the Holocaust and the Russian pogroms, we’ve found inspi- ration in this story of our triumph over our difficulties and our liberation from slavery. Reader 4: Now the covid-19 pandemic has uprooted our lives once again — though this time instead of having to flee our homes, we are remaining inside them to protect ourselves and save countless lives! Still, millions of people are in upheaval. No one knows how long this will last or how it will end. But we got through all those other hardships, and we’ll get through this one. And while we can’t come together physically, we can still come together as one. And if nothing else, this situation is teaching us to appreciate so many things that we’d been tak- ing for granted. 3 7. Dayenu Ilu hotzi hotzianu hotzianu mi mitzrayim hotzianu mi mitzrayim dayenu Day-dayenu, day-dayenu, day-dayenu, dayenu dayenu (if He had taken us out of Israel…) Ilu natan natan lanu natan lanu et hashabat natan lanu et hashabat dayenu (if He had given us the Sabbath…) Ilu natan natan lanu natan lanu et hatorah natan lanu et hatorah dayenu (if He had given us the Torah…) This song is about being grateful for what we have. What things are you grateful for now? 8. Havdalah The Blessing over Wine or Grape Juice ָבּוּרp ַָאהתּ ְָיי , ֱֵאxה וּנֽי pֶֽלֶמ ָםוָֹהלע , רוֹבּ ֵא ִיְפּר ֽןֶפָגַּה .

  • SPIRITS of OUR PAST: in OUR HEARTS FOREVER Where It All Began - a Toast to Our Founders
    In This Issue: Second Decade Shabbat, page 5 Unity Through Harmony Concert, page 6 VOLUME 15 NUMBER 8 APRIL, 2019 ADAR II-NISAN 5779 SPIRITS OF OUR PAST: IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER Where it all began - A toast to our founders In September 1894, Beth Abraham’s founders purchased land to serve as the two-month-old congregation’s cemetery, near what is now West Schantz Avenue. Sometime between 1894 and 1895, they also began renting space for prayer services at the southeast corner of Fifth Street and Wayne Avenue. This was the shul’s home until 1902. Join us at 3 p.m. on Sunday, May 5th, when we gather at Beth Abraham Cemetery’s main circle (in the chapel in case of inclement weather) with Dayton Jewish Observer Editor & Publisher Marshall Weiss to learn more about the history of this sacred place, its founders, and to share stories of your loved ones who are interred there. Afterward, we’ll reconvene at 4:30 p.m. at The Dublin Pub - which now occupies the site of Beth Abraham’s Fifth and Wayne location - for a toast to the shul’s founders, accompanied by tasty vegetarian appetizers and hors d’oeuvres. Please RSVP to the Beth Abraham Synagogue office by Thursday, April 25th if you will be attending the gathering at the Dublin Pub so we can plan accordingly. There is no cost to attend for the hors d’oeuvres and non-alcoholic drinks. We hope you’ll join us at this event as we continue celebrating our 125th anniversary!

  • 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.

  • A Seder for Everyone
    THE WANDERING IS OVER HAGGADAH A SEDER FOR EVERYONE HOW TO USE THIS HAGGADAH Passover is a holiday celebrating and commemorating the Israelites’ liberation from slavery and their exodus from Egypt, as told in the beginning of the Book of Exodus in the Hebrew Bible (and subsequently reinterpreted in several debatably good movies). Following the command that the story should always be taught to the next generation, Jews across time and space have celebrated this joyful holiday. As you might imagine, many aspects of the Passover celebration have withstood the millennia of observance, and many traditions have been added, taken away and changed over time. Now, the choice is yours. This seder is generally designed to take about 45 minutes from start to dinner, and to be accessible to everyone. Make the experience your own by including additional readings or favorite family traditions. You can also create new traditions relevant for the guests with whom you will be sharing your seder. You’ll notice the meal is right in the middle; if you just stop there, you’ll miss some of the best parts (including half the wine)! But be realistic—if you don’t think you and your guests will want to pick up the Haggadah again after the entrée, consider moving some of the second-half highlights to the pre-dinner slot. Just as seders vary from household to household, so do leadership styles. Our recommendation is to encourage lots of participation; that way everyone is invested in the experience and there will be more lively conversation. This Haggadah deliberately minimizes the role of the leader so every guest can participate at his or her comfort level.

  • Welcome to the Seder
    WELCOME TO THE SEDER . As recounted in the Bible, Passover celebrates the Israelites’ freedom from Egyptian bondage under a cruel Pharaoh. But while the observance goes back millennia, each time we gather for the holiday represents an opportunity to fill old vessels with new wine. Fresh insights, meaning and even humor are prompted through participation in ancient rituals. The four cups of wine not only gladden the heart but also act to liberate our imagination. The occasion serves as an annual landmark in the life of a family and community. Cherished moments around the Seder table confirm our humanity, bonds with others, and sense of responsibility regarding those who continue to be denied the fruits of liberties we experience. KINDLING LIGHT Let these lights inspire worthy purposes: to heal, not harm, help, not hinder, bless, not curse, hope, not fear. May the sense of God's nearness illuminate our homes and world. Baruch Atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech haolam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu l'hadlik ner shel (Shabbat v'shel) Yom Tov. Blessed are You, our God, Ruler of the world, Who sanctifies us with mitzvot and calls us to kindle the light of (Shabbat and) Yom Tov. 2 SHEHECHEYANU Baruch Atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech haolam, shehecheyanu v’kiy’manu v’higianu laz’man hazeh. Blessed are you our God who has given us life, sustained us, and enabled us to reach this sacred time. KIDDUSH We bless the wine because it symbolizes the sacred character of the Passover observance. Kiddush is derived from the Hebrew word for holiness, kadosh.
