Introduction to an Orthodox Jewish Passover Seder

Each year, and for thousands of years, Jews celebrate the Holiday of Passover with a special Seder meal, reminiscent of the final meal in Egypt just hours before the Exodus.  But the Jewish seder is full of traditions, Biblical and post-Biblical texts, matzah, wine, unique food samplings and of course children!  In fact, the main point of the Seder is to communicate the Passover story onward, through the generations.

This is your unique opportunity to really understand what a Jewish seder is all about.  Join Sondra Oster Baras as she takes us through the Haggadah, the ancient text that orders the Seder, and helps us uncover the underlying meanings and ramifications of this amazing Jewish tradition.

The Jewish Seder is all about passing on the tradition to the children, telling the story of the Exodus, of God’s miracles to the Nation of Israel. “And you shall tell your children on that day!” (Exodus 13:8). Teaching the children is a key value in Jewish society and something that has kept the Jewish people alive all these centuries, primed and ready to go home to Israel.
