B"H Jewish customs aren't just rules—they're personal, meaningful, and often passed down through generations. On Seder night, while halakhah gives us the structure, it's our minhagim—our customs—that bring it to life. Each family becomes a storyteller, adding their unique voice to the larger Jewish journey. In this clip, I share a small but special family tradition: lifting my pinky during Kiddush. It may seem simple, but it's deeply symbolic and woven into our mesorah.

Reality of the Pesach Seder in Growth by Rabbi Daniel Kalish
Rabbi Kalish
During our Pesach Seder, we recounted the story of our redemption, starting with our suffering in Egypt, leading to our cries to Hashem, and ultimately to Him guiding us to freedom. However, we must ask ourselves why He placed us in Egypt to begin with. What was it about our time in Egypt that was a necessary prerequisite to achieve freedom? What does freedom really mean? In this episode, I am absolutely delighted to welcome my new dear friend and Rabbi, Morty Roth, so he can share his deep insights into the answers to these questions.Morty Roth references several books during our conversation. If you are interested in obtaining these books I have provided links to where you can buy.Covenant & Conversation by Jonathan Sacks Pebbles of Wisdom From Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz ★ Support this podcast ★

Our Intergenerational Divergence series is sponsored by our friends Sarala and Danny Turkel.In this special episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Rachel Goldberg-Polin—whose son, Hersh, was kidnapped by Hamas and is still held hostage in Gaza—about heading into Passover with our loved ones still captive.Normally, Intergenerational Divergence feels like something of a choice. But now, Jewish families have been split apart by force. In this episode we discuss:How do we foster a continued connection to the members of our family who are missing?What difficult thoughts and questions will we bring to the Seder table this year?What does it mean to express hope via the Pesach Seder amid these bitter times? We hope wholeheartedly that this conversation about missing our children at the time of Passover will be made irrelevant and the hostages will soon return home. Interview begins at 7:17.References:“One Tiny Seed” by Rachel Goldberg-Polin“To the Boys in the Room” by Rachel Goldberg-PolinSefer HaMenucha on Mishneh Torah, Leavened and Unleavened Bread 8:2“A Prayer for Israel To Add to Your Pesach Seder” by Yosef Zvi Rimon
Rabbi Dunner discusses how the late Henry Kissinger's innovative diplomacy, which balanced out-of-the-box thinking with established structures, parallels the dynamic interplay of tradition and creativity in the Pesach Seder. A thought-provoking exploration of how tradition and innovation coexist, shaping both global politics and Jewish religious observances.
Toward the beginning of the Pesach Seder, we break one of the Masot on the table, and then announce, “Ha Lahma Anya Di Achalu Abhatana Be'ar'a De'Misrayim” – “This is the bread of poverty which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt.” For what reason do we break the Masa into two pieces, and why do refer to Masa as “Lehem Oni” – “the bread of poverty”? An insightful explanation of the “Ha Lahma Anya” proclamation was offered by the Berach Moshe (Rav Moshe Teitelbaum of Satmar, 1914-2006). He writes that, as earlier commentators have noted, the Egyptian exile resulted from the sin of the sale of Yosef. Our ancestors first went to Egypt because the brothers turned against their brother and sold him into slavery. And it is this same ill – strife and in-fighting among our nation – that has kept us in exile for so many centuries. The Shela Ha'kadosh (Rav Yeshaya Horowitz, d. 1630) famously taught, “Mahloket Ahat Doha Me'a Parnasot” – a single fight can ruin one hundred opportunities for earning a livelihood. Many people mistakenly think that they benefit financially by “playing tough,” by insisting on fighting for every bit of money they feel they deserve. But our tradition teaches us that to the contrary, nothing is more destructive to the pursuit of a livelihood than fighting. One of the most important things we should be doing to ensure the success of our efforts to earn a respectable Parnasa (livelihood) is avoiding conflict, making sacrifices for the sake of peaceful relations with people, and trying to get along with those around us. On this basis, we can explain the meaning of Yahatz – the breaking of the middle Masa at the Seder. As we prepare to tell the story of our ancestors' enslavement and eventual redemption, we break a single Masa into two pieces, symbolizing the breaking of unity, the split in Yaakob's family which is what led to the Egyptian exile. The Berach Moshe explains that when we proclaim, “This is the bread of poverty which our ancestors ate in the land of Egypt,” we are actually saying that we continue to experience “the bread of poverty,” the hardships of exile, because we are guilty of the same ill of strife and disunity that plagued our ancestors. The reason why our “Masa” is “broken,” why we still face so many difficult challenges, is the sin of fighting and divisiveness. The Berach Moshe adds that this is why we immediately proceed to announce an invitation, welcoming anyone who needs a place to eat: “Whoever is hungry shall come and eat; whoever is in need shall come and observe the Pesach.” As we reflect upon the sin of in-fighting and disunity that has caused and prolonged or exile, we resolve to work toward correcting this wrong by extending an invitation to everyone in need. We do not invite only those people whom we like, only those people who are similar to us, who think like us, who act like us, and who observe Misvot the same way we do. We invite anyone in need, no matter who they are, because this is how we correct the sin of baseless hatred – by loving and cherishing all our fellow Jews, even if they are different from us. This paragraph concludes with the prayer, “Now we are here – next year, in the land of Israel; now we are slaves – next year, free people.” The Berach Moshe explains that we express our confident hope that in the merit of our efforts to increase unity among our people, to extend love and respect to all our fellow Jews, regardless of our differences, we will be worthy of our final redemption, may it arrive speedily and in our time, Amen.
In this weeks Shiur , We lock-in on the Pesach Seder. This is information that has been culled over years of learning from my Rebbi, Rav Berkovitz, of how a Focus Seder can infuse responsibility and love for Judaism in to our children and ourselves. They will learn what it means to be Jewish, know Hashem loves them and walk away with an understanding of the secret of our Immortality.

Parsha Talk with Rabbis Eliot Malomet, Barry Chesler and Jeremy Kalmanofsky. Parashat Va-era [Exodus 6:2–9:35] is the 2nd parashah of Exodus. Unlike many of the parashiyot, it takes its name from the first word of the 2nd sentence, in which God declares that He appeared to the patriarchs as El-Shaddai, but did not make known to them the 4-letter name, YHVH. In modern critical scholarship this verse looms large, but alas, that is the subject of another conversation. We focused our attention on the phrase sh'lakh et ammi v'-ya'avduni, a trope in this chapter in its manifold iterations. It translates as “send forth My people, they might worship Me”. We spent most of our conversation trying to unpack this enigmatic phrase. Near the end we took up Moses' description of himself as aral-s'fata'im, of uncircumcised lips. What did Moses intend to say about himself in describing himself so? There is much we did not get to, including the 7 plagues and the verses of redemption [6:6–8], which are the foundation of the 4 cups of wine at the Pesach Seder. We hope you enjoy what we did talk about! Please let us know, here on Facebook or at parshatalk@gmail.com Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the hostages, may they be returned to their homes safely, and the soldiers defending Israel, may they be removed from harm's way. Shabbat Shalom.
