Have you ever wondered why we specifically break the MIDDLE Matzah during the Seder?

We break the middle matzah because matzah is described [music] as a lechem oni, a poor man's bread. Poor man's bread is not whole. It's always [music] missing something. Always striving for something more. We break that middle matzah because the matzah that comes before has to do with our past. We have confidence in our past. We have a wholeness [music] to our foundation. We have the matzah that comes afterwards, a matzah of our future. We have the promise and aspiration [music] for redemption. But the journey sometimes has moments that are broke. Sometimes has moments that we take [music] the other half of the matzah, hide it away, where we have to search and search and search for the redemption [music] of the Jewish people. A redemption that will ultimately be realized at the end of the Seder when that second [music] half of that middle matzah reemerges as our afikoman. And that is what we take with us beyond [music] the Seder into the redemption and the future of the Jewish people.
