Haggadah for the Days of Isolation a Seder for Isolated Celebrants

Haggadah for the days of isolation A Seder for isolated celebrants

The traditional Haggadah talks of five ancient rabbis whose seder lasted all night.

However sometimes it feels right to have a much shorter seder, covering the essential parts, bringing Pesach into your home, even if you are on your own or celebrating with just a couple of other people. This Haggadah is designed for just such an emergency.

As a minimum you will need to get ready : some wine (any wine will do), two candles, a few sheets of matzah, bitter herbs (if no horseradish an onion will do), some green herbs or vegetables, saltwater, Charoset (any mixture of sweet paste), , and if no lamb bone comes to hand maybe a burnt egg can cover for both symbols….or, if especially if you are a vegan – be creative!

Or, of course, you can get out the whole collection, matzah plate, matzah cover etc. If you have them why not give them an airing…it might make you feel as if its “Pesach as usual” even if the usual number of family or friends are missing.

This Haggadah is based on Liberal Judaism’s “Haggadah B’chol Dor Va-Dor”.

Berlin, 1927 Miriam The Prophet at the Red Sea, Marc Chagall 4a

We thank You, O God, for our family and for what we mean and bring to one another. We are grateful for the bonds of loyalty and affection which sustain us and which keep us close to one another no matter how far apart we may be.

We thank You for implanting within us the capacity to love and to care.

Help us to be modest in our demands of one another, but generous in our giving to each other. May we never measure how much love or encouragement we offer; or count the number of times we forgive. Rather, may we always be grateful that we have one another and that we are able to express our love in acts of kindness.

Bless our family with health, happiness, and contentment. Above all, grant us the wisdom to build a joyous and peaceful home in which Your spirit will always abide.

Said the parents to the children: Then did sneer the one so wicked: ‘At the Seder you will dine; ‘What does all this mean to you?’ You will eat your fill of Matzah, And the parents’ voice was bitter You will drink four cups of wine.’ As their grief and anger grew. My father was a wandering Aramean, and he went down into Egypt with a few people Now these parents had two daughters ‘If yourself you don’t consider and lived there and became a great nation, powerful and numerous. But the Egyptians With two sons they numbered four; As a child of Israel mistreated us and made us suffer, putting us to hard labour. Then we cried out to the One was wise and one was wicked, Then for you this has no meaning Eternal One, the God of our ancestors, and the Eternal One heard our voice and saw our One was simple, filled with awe. You could be a slave as well.’ misery, our toil and oppression. So the Eternal One brought us out of Egypt with a mighty And the fourth was sweet and winsome, Then the simple one said simply, hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with miraculous signs and wonders. He was young and he was small, ‘What is this?’ and quietly, (Deuteronomy 26:5-8) While the others asked the questions, The good parents told their offspring, He could scarcely speak at all. ‘We were freed from slavery.’ Said the wise one to the parents But the youngest one was silent The plagues ‘Would you please explain the laws For he could not ask at all, Of the customs of the Seder And his eyes were bright with wonder Will you please explain the cause?’ As his parents told him all. At a time when the whole world is suffering from a dreadful plague, we recall the And the parents proudly answered: Now dear children, heed the lesson plagues of old that remind us that this period did end with the liberation of our ‘Our ancestors ate in speed, And remember evermore, Ate the Paschal lamb ’ere midnight What the parents told their children: people, even if it meant that some must suffer before the plague are over. And from slavery were freed. Sons and daughters numbered four. Our tradition asks us to remember those who have and are suffering and so we spill one drop of wine as we recall the ten ancient plagues. ‘So we follow their example, And by midnight must complete All the Seder, and we should not After twelve remain to eat.’
