Let’s build strong interfaith solidarity by refraining from appropriating Jewish rituals.
Here are a few more ‘arguments’ that we didn’t include, but feel we should head off… “But Judaism is the root of Christianity”. We are a living, breathing people and our traditions have continued to live and thrive despite Christian oppression. These traditions came after Jesus and are not for the taking. “But Jesus was the Passover Lamb!” That’s a Christian tradition and has nothing to do with us. There are many beautiful Christian traditions. Go celebrate them. Enjoy them. No need to take ours.
Make sure to share and if you see someone having a Christian seder, educate them!

Is there anything more Jewish than a meal where eighty percent of the time rather than eat you read an old text and argue over it?

Dayenu
So, for my job, I used to write things with a Rabbi... like emails and social media posts, etc...
A few years ago, at the first COVID Passover, there was no travel or social gathering, and very few people were able to visit family to celebrate the holiday. People were alone for their Seders and it was a new and isolating experience. Knowing how difficult this would be, I looked up some speeches and opinion pieces about Passover that might be inspiring and maybe lift some spirits...
I wish I could remember the Rabbi, but one write up was about how we say Dayenu (translated as, "It would have been sufficient"). Dayenu recounts all the wonderful things Hashem has done for the Jewish people and basically breaks it down that if Hashem had ONLY done this one thing for us, it would have been sufficient. It's a long list and one of them is, "If Hashem had brought us to Mount Sinai and not given us the Torah, it would have been sufficient." But that raises the question of what would be the point of gathering the Jewish people to Sinai and NOT giving us the Torah?
The answer is: Because this was the first time we, the Jewish people, had been gathered together specifically as the Jewish people. It was the first time we were gathered as a joint community.
I wrote how this related to us being isolated during COVID during the holiday... How did I connect this?
Even if we are sitting alone in our homes, we are all doing that together. All of us, all the Jewish people around the world - in the diaspora, in Israel, all the same nights and doing the same basic things (though traditions vary). We are still the Jewish people. We are still gathered as a joint community. We are still all connected to each other through this holiday - telling the same story of our freedom from slavery. We are joined by an invisible bond to all our fellow Jews with our identity intact, surviving thousands of years, telling our story year after year.
It was a call to remember we are not alone, even when we are alone.
I think about it again now because I see so many Jews on this site and on other media talking about how they feel isolated and alone.
I hope we all remember that we are joined together by that invisible bond still. That as we sit at our Seders and telling our story, there are millions of others who are doing the same and that we are still here as a community. We drink our wine (or grape juice or what have you) and dip our bitter herbs into a mixture of apple/nuts/wine/dates (or d'vash or whatever you use) for morar... We sing Dayenu and welcome Eliyahu... we do so separately and together... with family, or with friends, while hiding on college campuses, or in hotels with catered meals, at big tables and small, for the first time or for the 180th time, with chairs full and with empty chairs for the missing...
And I hope that for those that are feeling alone can somehow read this and know that they aren't alone. We are here with you. We are Jews with you. We are a community and we survive by telling our story every year together.
Sending you all love and hope for happiness and peace.
May it be sufficient.

As we gather around as Jews, we are taught this:
As the Jews finished crossing the parted sea, the angels wanted to start to sing about (Praise) the water collapsing on Pharohs soldiers.
G-D was enraged by the angels. As even Pharohs people were also G-Ds children.
My grandmother taught me that G-D loves all of his children, and we are all seen as human. We make mistakes, we fight, we argue, but being human is to err. It is not us as humans to judge another human.
Every time I was a child, I would fight with a cousin, and my grandmother reminded us of this. We were going to be related, so we might as well get along and get it over sooner than later.

Personally, not a fan. My strategy in terms of getting g through this part of the Passover meal, is to smother Gefilte fish with heaps of horseradish sauce. That usually does the trick.

thinking about the time i chewed my uncle out for giving my little cousin less afikomen money than me even though we found it together and technically she was the one that spotted it first so if anything she should've gotten the $20 bill and i should've gotten the $10 and all the adults laughed and started saying that i showed him and he just smiled and took out his wallet and pulled out another bill or two and told me to give it to my cousin
#passover#afikomen#rah rah rambles#dunno why that story sticks with me so much#but it's one of the two afikomen stories that i often think of around now#passover seder#pesach#jewblr

מוֹעֲדִים לְשִׂמְחָה חַגִּים וּזְמַנִּים לְשָׂשׂוֹן
Moadim L'Simcha is the perfect time to gather the community with Judaica hands-on arts & crafts activities that usher a golden sacred glow of grace, holiness and tribalhood. Nurture a sense of belonging by building stronger communal bonds that infuse beams of togetherness and foster faith, strength and resilience. Enrich Passover’s profound symbolism to unify a tribal alliance devoted to heritage and bestowing legacy inspiring love, goodness and goodwill among Am Yisrael.
Through enrichment with coloring Passover Seder Plates, the past and present merge in a timeless symphony of roots embedded in noble virtues of liberty, freedom and salvation. Exodus Jewish motives encoded in the art serve as a boundless bridge, connecting the Torah's divine attributes, welcoming sacredness, ethics, and kindness that elevate a spiritual holy atmosphere that ground guidance for righteous living.
Art gathering activities are incredibly soothing, offering a moment of calmness, tranquility and a meditative introspection amidst feelings of isolation and fear in times of uncertainty. It presents a wonderful opportunity for community members to express themselves, reflect upon the nuances of emotions, and contribute from their own hues to dissolve into a greater whole while lighting a glowing effect of providence.
✨🤍
