Haggadah Shel Pesach: The Revolutionary Redefinition of the Avudraham

this Tower class is brought to you by torahanytime.com here in Cuban Hills we have a lot to do today so but we're gonna get it in we're gonna get in America tells us in safer divarim character zionates foreign for seven days you should eat we'll see what that means very quickly says in order for you to remember the day you left matrium every day of your life from this plastic we derive that every single day that you're alive you have to remember you see us in Italian submit so that we do every single morning and according to most most uh we pass again that you remember me till sometime in the evening as well that means it's a Mitzvah the Eraser that you perform twice every single day of your life people want to know I always have to remember no you don't always have to remember only if you're alive only if you're alive in fact this is a famous mishna the message said that despite the fact that he had studied so much that he was as if he was 70 years old he did not Merit to find the precise source for zakiras utsius metrium until benzoima darshan Laman tisgarh this seemingly has absolutely nothing to do with PESA every single day every day of the year there's a Mitra to remember you'd see a Smith Ryan so what exactly are we doing well say there well we have another pasta comparison boy the plastic says you should relate to your son on that day Lamar saying because of this also Hashem God performed for me that says the name is Ryan commenting on this learns look at number four let's stop there and below the Nissan to relate about the Exodus on the night of the 15th everybody according to their oratory ability in other words there are two separate nitsars there's one midsole we do every day and every night and that is Le man tiskares and that were makaim in the third pass of and there is a separate Mitzvah now how do I know that's the 15th because it says there is an independent Mitzvah to be misapper the night of the say there in fact there is an ancient safer believe it's from the 15th century called safer hatishbe it's at a print it says where does the word hagada come from why is it called hagada right you know that book but I think there are more commentaries on that book than any other every year there are at least 50 new haggadas that came out that you must have right you must have if you don't have this new hagoda you'll you don't know what pesach is they try to convince you right but the haga the where does the word hagoda come from so the safe Artistry writes after all there's a specific Mitzvah the night of the Seder of he gotta tell them the name of the book hagada by the way there is another Apostle in the Hamish that teaches us that there's a special myth for the night of the stay there and that is the Posse again parishes now interestingly they say foreign come on and the rambam says this possible is very similar to the Zohar we have by Shabbos of and then the Raman says how do I know this plastic is referring to the night of Tesla Nissan because says the RAM on the other Posse and says the ramen how do you fulfill this mitzvah even if you don't have a son says the ramam you still fulfill the Mitzvah even great says the Raman and the more you elongate the more you lengthen the more you spend time discussing events okay very nice now if I were to ask you we'll take a vote now which is what is the very worst way to begin the Haggadah with which what do you think is the worst most anti-climactic way to begin the Haggadah I would vote and if I had two votes I would vote twice the worst way to begin the Haggadah is with the mishnah of Allah and lo and behold that's how we begin the Haggadah now why do I say is this an interesting share why do I say that why do I say that um no problem why do I say that uh this is the worst way to uh begin because of Elizabeth is discussing the Mitzvah remembering it's here so let's try him every single night of the year which has nothing to do with the yant of a pesach why begin the hagada is the unique why begin the hagada with a mishnah that discusses amitsma that we do every night of the year what does that got to do with Lil say there I mean to make things worse there's also a Mitzi every night of the year to believe in Hashem there's nothing to do with Allah say that why begin the hagada with the mishna of about discussing your teeth every night of the year in a way that brings up another question if there in fact is a Mitzvah to remember you see some assignment every night of the year then what's special about Lil say there what are we getting together putting on the Kittle sitting around the table getting the whole family together for a missile we do every single night of the Imagine um and on a random night of the year we gather everybody together so yeah well what's the big holiday yeah we're dominating Marathon tonight no we got married every night of the year I mean what what is special about the midst of super existence it's a missile you have to do every night of the year and LMI we want to make a big deal about tonight then the last thing you want to drum up the one mishnah that you want to throw under the rug is the mission that says you have to do this every single night of the year and yet the hagoda begins strangely enough with the very mishnah which puts a damper on the whole evening and that is there's nothing special about tonight you gotta do this every even little Tish above you have three memories why would we begin the hagada with um foreign that is rather strange and this is a question of pamaranchik the label of pamaranchik was the talmuda of the briskarab of the grizzly he asks the mission of Elizabeth in um here it says parakeet of but it's not it's discussing the Mitzvah every night of the year to remember time why would we mention it the night of the Satan that's the last way that's the worst way to begin to say there imagine if we began to stay there just want everyone to know that whatever we're doing tonight is not special we do this every night of the year thanks that's great imagine how your wife would feel really you don't need really you should be doing this every night of the year well says that he heard from the riskarov that he heard from his father okay so uh if you came here today you're hearing big stuff you're hearing from the grass brisker if anybody ask you what you learned say over here we learned and we'll see even more than that well this what there's only one yeah he says like this every year at the cedar of China every night of the year there's a message what is special then about again this is the amec Bronco the time of the Grizz who sang over that the Grizz said his father would ask this question every year and replying would you imagine sitting at the say the replying who he had at that say there you know he had the grid sitting there he had his children gave the following three answers I um this morning we would like to offer a fourth answer perhaps even more basic and more overarching while rookheim give the following three answers number one there's well the first difference between the hero 66 every night of the year and the night of the stay there is that every night of the year you just say Hashem took us out of mitzrayim but the night of the Seder it has to be in a different format the format has to be Shyla and chuva question and answer management it's not enough to say it it has to be Shiloh chuva if your kids good if he's a tum whatever he asks address it he doesn't know how to ask feed him the question your kid is not there let your wife ask your wife's not there your wife's not talking to you ask yourself okay ask yourself um that's the format of the Mitzvah of zahiraziser it has to be Shyla uchuva number two the rest of the year right even if you don't know a word of Yiddish at least you know this is just say Hashem took us out of this Ryan you don't have to get into all the nitty-gritty the night of pesach other than that from pesach you have to start from the beginning you have to relate however if they avoid the Zara you have to relate how he went down to Matra we have to speak about them in other words you need to get all the nitty-gritty all the details it's not enough to mention it in general you need to go through all the details that is the second distinction between the rest of the year and the night of the sedan and the third difference said the graph says what kind of the third difference is the night of the Seder you must expound and explain the reasons for the Mitzvah salilah why do we eat the carbon pesach why do we eat matzah why do we eat Mara like this is all these are the three main distinctions between the rest of the year and the night of the sedan delineates these three distinctions first the Raman Begins by saying that there's a midst of assay on the the night of the 15th to discuss you have to tell your sons according to their level of understanding whether it's a tipish if he's going to ask you if he doesn't ask you your wife should ask you so now here the realm immediately is telling us delineating the first the first distinction and that is it has to be there Shiloh uchuva the ramam goes on in to tell me the halacha of mask um they have to go through all the details of how we ended up in the Triumph and then the rambam says and uh quotes over the mission Ram gum Leo of coach and then the random says so the ramam is clearly delineating these three distinctions that has established as the three main differences between zakira sometime the rest of the year and then I'd have to stay there oh now we understand the format and the tsura of hagada show PESA you know why the hagoda begins this is the introduction to the hagada where Allah gets up and he tells every Jew you should know that if you don't understand what you're here for tonight you're gonna miss the boat because the introduction to the Haggadah is really you need to mention it see us in Italian every night of the year so then you should be bothered by the obvious question so what are we doing here tonight number one what we're doing here tonight is Manish Tano question and answer number two what we're doing here tonight is and number three what we're doing here tonight is from here we see that the hagado is not just an ancient collection of various things that were said over the ages about well he says no it's precisely enacted to fulfill the halachic requirements of the night of the say there number one question and answer number two and number three Rabbi Sai um explaining the tame him twice but whatever everything I'm telling you now is not just from the amec bracha quoting the briskarov who is saying over with but you're going to be big stuff when you walk out of here today because if you look in the hidusha stencil that's not stencil you know what stencil is this was printed so long ago they didn't have the typeset yet it's still the old-fashioned typeset but this is this means this is Schmitz stencil is the the real bona fide London yes says everything we just said so it's not just pesh lishi from pamaranchik who heard from the Grizz who are from that these in fact are the three distinctions between the night of the Seder and the midsole is um the rest of the year Rabbi Sai well we're here to explore today is perhaps there's another dimension and another important facet of Secrets that's different than the rest of the year if you look in the mom suck him when the gumar is discussing the Indian of masculine you have to begin by speaking about the disparagement says like this what do we need in other words the gemara is telling us the night of the Sedar we need to read and darshan at length where if somebody has um the first fruits you have a fig that ripened you have a pomegranate that ripen you have um you have a date that ripened right you know what these things are these are some things called fruits in the olden days people used to eat them right just to clarify and you would bring it up to you and you would say a whole geshaft about how Hashem and how we appreciate that Hashem brought us to Arts Israel and we would present it to the kahin and says the gamara this is something we need to read the night of the Seder the parasha of mikra vikurim and not only that the gemara says you need to darshan it the majority of the Haggadah is darshaning the sukim of micro bikurim right so for example we say shine almost the majority of the mean of the body of Magid is darshaning the sukim of nikra bikurim and the question is what in the what on Earth are we doing rights that doesn't make any sense to say the least I mean what are we supposed to be doing by the hagada we're supposed to be talking about why quote some guy bringing fruits remembering itself which is some guy bringing pomegranates and he's talking to the Korean about time why why expand those and apparently the gamar feels this is critical the gamara says and we have to darshan these why why are we so busy with the Parish of micro vikuram you have no pomegranates on your table the night of the Savior you have no figs on the table you have no data Maybe in the car races I don't know you mix in there but there are no this is not Leo Rosh Hashanah what are you darshan then I had to say there in fact the rambam feels that it's so important to darshan look at the ram of the ram number 13 in you speak about how terracos separated us from the from the Zara now listen to this this is this year this number 13 that concluding words of the Rama because and the longer you speak and the more you the more gametrius and Remus and stories and verdlach that you say on the Paris hmm [Music] uh one second if you haven't had temporary Amnesia you would remember that the ramam already said that the realm of number seven apparents says so why is the ramam saying the exact same things a word there's no that the more the more the ramam talks about this that doesn't go on the round why would the rambam repeat two times apparently the round arm holds there are two distinct Mitchells tonight of the sea there there's one Mitzvah to speak about the Miracles of the Triumph in the Nissan and there's another onion that the more you darshan and expound and the question is where in the world did the rambam get this from that there are two equal important misses tonight let's say that one is speak about damn and one to darshan where does that come from that the night is say that we have to be Marik and being Diaries this is a question that is um raised specifically in the safe area of foreign and what is this unique facet of Sam to be doing okay question do women need to say the Hakata well let's discuss that is men and women doesn't make any sense why in the world should women have to say that I got them oh so you saying this you're just like teasing me right because I'm sure you remember toy sister Nagila that says only obligates women now there is a shita of safe issue who says it would even obligate them but we don't we don't know that way we say that only micro Magilla and only near Hanukkah and women are high because because foreign but silver it is not trying why in the world should women behave and see pretty seasonal trying and in fact if you look in the rambam when the rambam talks about the midst of superior he doesn't say that women are haive in fact if you look in any of the other we shine them they don't say a word that women are high of ncertists in time in fact brings down that the Rama writes all the Mitzvah cessation and the Raman does not say women archive in super easy time you know why because the rambam holds women are Potter that's pastors women strangely says that women are obligated in Civilization what do I feel about that it's all I don't get it I don't but you see doesn't the Ramones say if um your kid doesn't ask you your wife should ask yeah that's not because she has to ask that's because you're mahui that someone should ask you so she's the only one around but she could say no so I want to tell you very briefly a beautiful Heather that I found in three different sources what possibly could be the Makar that women are Hive in the midst of Seabury since the time I found this in three sources number one there's a letter written by the stipler which is published in the kovates it's also brought in the Comets this idea is uh also in the safer is who lived here in this neighborhood I actually heard him say this and also in Rabbi obam this is this is so we have to call him actually I like the way Rabbi Obama says it in his hagada because he answers another question with it as well but they all say the exact same thing and that is as follows this is also a big key of this year look at number 17 Again says like this let's go back to the Posse again number one we have a lot to do we'll try to go through it quickly the gemara said the the post success and devarams foreign you'll probably say the poor man's bread which has nothing to do with the result of buying the Manta by the way it's not it's not called lakamoni after you buy them outside right actually the gemara died the gamara darshan doesn't say like I'm honey says bread that you talk about a lot what's Masa bread that you talk about a lot by the way the Sam sofa says you know let's travel the city of delicious the woman doesn't have them it says some Services the night of talking everyone has to make themselves makeva says what I'm just reporting the truth as it is okay some Surfer in the midst of Seafort the mouth so that opens so says bread that you talk about a lot what do you say what do you say says Rashi you know what you say about the bread that you finish in other words the definition of matzah is not water and flour no the definition of matzah is water flour Hollow hagoda the same way if you don't put flour in your mouth if you don't put hagodo in your mouth if you don't put Hollow in your ago women's because an ingredient of matzo is you have to say that Rabbi say if someone doesn't say the hagada not only are they not yet either option so iobmuses to answer the capture the native then it said yes why do I need to suck him of black and Apostle coffee it's the same incidence it's not the same as well independent mix of super there and he is an ingredient in the midst of Mata hey look at the Mitzi Mata Isla that could be an explanation for why the safer says women archived in sipur what do you mean is not going to do it it's not Grandma why would they behave the answer is in it as a component of the mitsa Mata ah but now let's come back to this year because the rambam holds a women's no clarinet so of women shouldn't they because women why doesn't the ramam say that women archive in civilians okay you ready this is a share right now everybody this is it okay prepare yourself devinsk comes and our Samir says that you talk about a lot in other words matzo is bread you have a lot to say about Rashi says what are you saying hello the ramen doesn't learn that way the rambam has a different definition of bread that you talk about you know what you're saying according to the rambam not how God don't halal we're in homish do we find the lotion of oinen I right we know sometimes to speak out loud in the hummus is called Aniya right we want to Define what's like there's only one time America the ram mom understands that if matzo is means talking what do you say the one parasha and the Hamish that is categorized and defined as Ania and that is that means according to the rambam the primary Mitzvah of the night of the Seder is expound on the Parish of micro bikurim it says how do I know what Oni means you have to look in the hummus so if you look in the second look at number 23 the Anisa the America the one place in the Torah where speaking is is described and when shmuel says Harvey talk about it a lot that's why the ramam says foreign and that only intensifies our question that why in the world would there be a special Mitzvah die rise to the night of the Seder and you can even make the case that it's not even matzah without reading the Parish of micro bikurim why is mikro bikurim so critical to the night of the sea there we're not doing anything even remotely connected or related to micro bikurim and yet the ramam learns according what are they not Macos but Micro bikura so we go to the morale morale says that um he's going on the gumar the gumar says there was once um and he got up to the armored he said okay etc etc and they said that's it that's all you have to say get out of here so um the morale asks what do we see from here that when it comes to honoring Hashem just do what they tell you don't do more so then why the night of the Savior do we say we don't say that by davening we don't say and the longer you go the better off you are no we say that's all you'll have to do don't go any further so the morale says when is when do we utilize the rule that just formulate and when do we utilize the rule says that you have to know that the night of the say there we're not praising Hashem when you praise and you say you're great you're awesome you're unbelievable that's it that's all you have to say about me there's much more don't even if you're praising then just do what hazal say but Cesar if you're thanking imagine morale says you have a guy is he has no money nothing in life there's no clothing and he's in a pit and a guy takes him out of the pit and he bathes him he dresses him like a million bucks he gives him a job he gives him everything life has to offer and the guy looks at his benefactor and he says thanks Russia thanks no not thanks thank you for taking me out of the pit thank you for bathing me thank you for addressing me thank you so the guy will say oh that's all you have to think no he's not going to say that yeah could the person say well I don't want to even begin start because I might leave something out we'll do the best he can do the best you can otherwise you know why he says I'm around because if you don't do the best you can you're just pushured and ingrate when it comes to praising somebody so if you're not macular greatness don't start uh with the whole long laundry list of superlatives it's not proper that it's never ending but when it's a personal benefit that accrued to you if you don't express it as much as you can then it just you're just you're it's a lack of gratitude and therefore when it comes to praising Hashem essay we just do precisely what the answer Casa Grande enacted but the night of the savior is not Sheva it's and when it comes to gratitude when it comes to gratitude you do as much as you can because in number 26 in the Parish of micro bikurim it says Rashi what's the purpose of the parishment in other words what's the function of the group says Rashi the function of micro bikurim the fundamental principle of the Kim of the midsom is it's the primary example of not being an ingrate according to the morale the entire purpose of the say there is gratitude so now we understand a little bit where the Powershell of micro bikurim comes in because the entire function according to Rashi of micro bikurim is the reason why you stand there in the basement you declare before the Kalyan the whole laundry list of the chef that was in your past and all the benefits has given you is just so you shouldn't be an in-grade that is the purpose of microbi kurim and that's the function of the Seda the ramam even says in the same the longer you speak and what Hashem did for us in gratitude that's the function of the night of the Seder of the Gratitude we have to show the ribbon Islam in fact this is really something had a servant I think on Friday now last Wednesday we quoted the gemara about ravnakman's wife the alpha but now I'm not going to head a servant daru daru that was his name and Roman turns to daru and he says daru darola let me ask you a question if a master frees a slave and gives him money a silver and gold what does the slave need to do my boiler I'm our lady he has to thank him in Praise Him that's what the night of the Seder is ocean that is the centerpiece of Magid that is where the Parish of micro bikurim fits in to hagada because according to the morale and according to the ramam the main function of the Seder of the Haggadah is a declaration of gratitude that is why we don't cap it that is how we're able to save what Mitzvah in the Torah is the greatest specific expression of gratitude that we have we know the person was specifically designated for this idea of in fact we know that ligamara says they're four people we have to thank Hashem your day hayam someone who makes it through the sea safe someone who makes it to the desert someone who is sick and was healed someone who is in jail why four the dalid causes are connected the four types of people have to thank guys because I'm insuryan we fell under the category of all four we went through we crossed the sea Chris yamsoff we went through the mid bar we were all hailing beaten in a try and we were all the way their main reason system is it's a gratitude it's symbolic of the Dallas it's an expression of of for the four categories the four primary categories of gratitude a person could have in this world and we the Knight of the Sedar have to express all four that's why we have dollar choices in fact the going says remember somebody uh asked me this question then he moved to Las Vegas no connection between asking questions Las Vegas but he wanted to know why the night of the state are everything is for eign why are we so in love with the number four what do we have against number three like what did the number three ever do to you something wrong with others you don't like the number three it's an odd number why for everything four four what's up with the number four says the going the reason why the night of the Seder everything is for is it's everything we do the night of the Sailor is an expression of for the four main categories of that exist in this world there's an unbelievable Rush and the rush is quoted by the tour the Russia is an African hey the Mordechai mentions it in like this that in Germany and in France the miniguas the night of the Seder how many matsus are there they're three months how much flour do you use to make the three matses yeah I have no idea I know how much money I pay but I don't know how much I don't know how much flour I use well in Germany and in France the custom was they would make the three masses from one esarine why we know when you bring a carbon Toyota it's accompanied by three types of matzah saloism listen to this now how much of each 10 10. the 10 the group of ten is made of three and one Thirty sarine got it 3 and 137 which means each matzah is made from how much if you need three and one Thirty sarin for ten that means each matzah requires a third of a Nissan so if you want to have a representation of how many how much flour do you need to have representation of each one is sorry right if each each item required a third of a Nissan and 10 required three and one third so to have one of each one of each you need any sarine therefore the three Masters they correspond to each type of matzah that was accompanied with the laugh with these carbon Toyota and therefore the Minogue is in Germany and in France I can't tell you if they did this in Hungary can't tell if they did this in Poland but at least in Germany and France they made each Masa from 130 so a total of one Eastern a flower says the rush and the same way for the carbonis they would Mark the matzo to know which one was nitran first so too when they made the matzah they would mimic that procedure that they use for the carbon tiger they would write number one number two number three that means the way we make the matzah is emulating the accompanying of the carbon type that means the Russia saying and the Torah is saying that the matzo that we eat tonight or the cedar everyone will say what's the reason for matzah going to be shining one of the reasons for matzah is the night of the Seder we are obligated to give these matsus are the accompanying of a carbon time in fact the basically safe rights why why what does that have to do with carbon Toyota because someone who comes out of jail has to bring a carbon tiger he says so now we're learning that not only is the hagoda an expression of Haida and not only are the dalit kaiso is an expression of haidar is also part of the lakhmeda that means the main theme of The Night of the say there is what doesn't ever do whose Master frees him he has to thank him gratitude Haida Salomon has very nice deal he says you know we know that the first three Macos is do not do them right he didn't hit denial for them he didn't hit the dot Nile for sadea and he didn't hit the Earth for King why because my Shabana was saved by the Nile when he was a kid and he was saved by the earth when he buried the mystery so it would have been a lack of gratitude to the water and the Earth and therefore my charbaino didn't hit them wait a second these are the only three markers Hashem could come up with so come up with a marker that he doesn't have to hit the water I mean we know the other Marcus had to do why would the Revenge them specifically give a Mackle not to be able to do it himself oh they're better someone wants to teach I mean there's a lot of opportunity in the Torah to teach that cause it's a big Torah out there he could have taught it once we got to the mid bar he could have taught it in the times picking on the beginning of yutiasmatrium to teach the lesson of hakara satave of gratitude and he says very simple because the entire purpose of yusiasmatrium was not just so that we should say god wow you're so powerful you're so mighty you're so magnificent yeah and now what what's that do for me the purpose is look at all of these magnificent things you did for me I now have to show you hakara satave I have to show you gratitude I am now your Avid I am now subject to you I am now subservient to you in other words is when a person feels the responsibility that the Rebellion has done so much for me personally then I am required to show gratitude by my humility and subservience to relish them and that is the critical lesson of UTS much time and that's why Hashem felt it was so important by the makos but and not necessarily by any other juncture so we're learning is that there's a new dimension of Haggadah that perhaps did not exist and does not exist every other night of the year because that is that really there's a midterm the rest of the year and the question is so what's special about the night of the Seder so we said the three answers said it has to be questioned and answer rookheim said you have to go through all the details rookheim said you have to explain the reasons for the mitzvahs but maybe we could suggest even more importantly the main distinction between the Supreme and this is zahira 16 the rest of the year is the primary emotion and the primary hargasha and you saw it they were trying to enunciate the night of the Seder is not just Hashem it's a form of gratitude that's why the ramam feels that the Parish of micro bikurim is so critical to the hagada it's not just mentioning a statement of emuna that Hashem it's more than a statement of amuna it's the night of the savior is that is the primary distinction between the night of the Seder and every night of the year if it happens to be one era of pesach I believe two years ago so I had the guts and I called up your emotion because it happens to be in one of his pieces he quotes about the three differences between the night or the stay there and the rest of the year and another one of his pieces he brought out this idea about the importance of roshishiva maybe we could use the concept of as a fourth answer to a Prime's question maybe this is another distinction he said very good this is what I said this year but it didn't make it to the safer the safer was already published okay maybe he's being nice to me it was right before PESA but anyway so let's just add one one thing uh the marketplace Rabbi Sai what does the word hagoda mean we saw the safer we got it what does the word hagada mean to speak doesn't say what does the word hagoda mean says we already said many times was not written by Regina and here we'll bring another proof [Applause] this is going on the possible in the Parish of micro bikurim that says Young I thank you today that means translates the word he got it as I thank you today foreign where does the word hagada come from not from the public who comes from the passage from micro bikurim he got it is because it's not it's xiaomi but the printers didn't know how to distinguish between the two so they named the target but he didn't write it it's time you show me like it says foreign not just like the like we were saying earlier from the rambam the Rama darshan's not only is it a very important thing the very definition of the word hagada is gratitude and perhaps this is a very important difference between the mid subsidious the night of the say there which by the way the rambam lists as a Mitzvah Raisa and the Mitzvah of zahiras is the rest of the year which surprisingly random does not list the primary difference maybe saying the detailed difference but the overarching difference the fundamental difference is he gotity is a lotion of odinan is the Gratitude we Express and the rambam says there are two haresa one is on the details of the sipur and one is on the micro bikurimaticio Salomon what does it means what is it what do those words mean you have good wine you say yayan what does that mean yeah what does means that we should praise the wine this is wine that we should praise means it's good wine means the more you praise Hashem the better you become the greater you become you become an Adama you become an ishibition all the missus you've just
