Hagadah Flashcards
'’Ha lachmeanyah’’
matza -why do we eat
ask anyone -b/c they ate
reason given -shelo hispik batzekam lehachmitz
Why is the fact we left in a hurry so significant ?
Jews never go w/o food
probably they prepared after h’ told moshe they’ll leave then the makos and somewhere along the line the jews gave up .
H’s lesson for eternity
1)’‘yeshuos h’ keheref ayin’’ -just when we think its over
ym is the paradigm for all future galuyos
it happens in an instant
(Sorno on mikeitz ) ‘‘vayirtzuhu min habor vayegaleich ‘’
rushed out -that is how h’ works
This is the 1st lesson taught
Whats the difference between the wicked and wise son's wise -ma heitzos vehachukim wicked-ma haavoda hazos lachem tam -ma zos In Torah (dvarim6;20) Shmos13;14)
shemen hatov
all 3 sons the word machar is used “‘ki yishalcha bincha machar lemor ‘’ -besides the rasha

Sfas Emes
while in the maror they couldn’t understand the good only in retrospect could they see it was for the good
‘‘veraisi maichorai ufanav lo yirauh ‘’
H’ interaction with us in this world is hidden we only see sometimes the retrospect
our job is to understand and have faith he has a plan
R’brody -never ask bus or plane driver - where is your license? ,do you know the directions ?
leave that up to him ,trust !
R’ elazar ben azarya
‘‘Harei ani kven shivim ..’’
How come he got recognition and became rosh yeshiva over night physical appearence changed
but he couldn’t find a proof zechiras Yetzias mitzrayim should be said at night ?
R’ Levenstein
Only way to become proficient with torah is via ameilus no shortcuts he got other miracles but torah “‘eina yerusha lach’’
comparison Pesach night and Yom kippur ?
nesivos shalom
2 evenings a year we wear a kittel
2 proccess start with kol
white represents new slate- we become new individuals
yom kippur needs isarusa delitata -10 days- fasting
pesach h’ comes to us
kol -gematria we were on 49th level -kol we were redeemed
tonight we bria chadasha -all up to us
Plan for the night
R’sender

Karpas
Halekach vehalibuv(r’schorr)
zohar-mitzrayim was dibur begalus
no torah yet so dibur
Kuzari -4 levels of being Domem,tzomeiach,chai ,medaber
R’schor-bnei yisrael in mitzrayim couldn’t be medabrim same as an animal

This is where we started
Yachatz
break matzos
Rambam /Ritva begining of seder before maggid
create lechem oni - onim alav devarim harbe
Netziv(meishiv davar) -Bread is shalem if walk in a 2 seperate pieces but if broke infront of you its a chisaron in shleimus
since broke so long ago its considered shalem
magid-we say leshana haba deara beyisrael only 2 times a year
What are we expressing ?
(malbim)(asapra kevodcha)
Mashal -son rebelling throws him out -how do I know he’s truthful ? sends him all he needs and he still wants to come back -he loves me
H’ threw us out of E”Y gives us stuff in galus _kosel
Lets see if he still calls must be he doesn’t love me
Left mitzrayim -start off h’ gave us so much but we not satisfied we want to come home !
avadin hayinu
Whole story of shemos paro’s name is not mentioned
how come ?
paro is a name of position (like avimelech)
phsycologists say all excuses for why he was bad ,abused bad upbringing
no excuses for being paro
R’elazar ben azarya
Zechira vs Sippur

R’Asher Weiss-Speed dial once a year fill in all the buttons so the rest of the year its speed dial

Why did the rambam leave zichiras YM out of his count ? Ohr Somayach its Rambam leshitaso Whats the mitzva of Shma ramban-1st paragraph rashi-1st tos-2 Rambam -all 3 So its part of K'sh
why in the torah is
pesach called chag hamatzos
and we call it pesach?
A) r'levi yitzchak pesach -is h' passing over and saving us matzos -al shem we left quickly h' wants to praise us we praise him (brachos 6) in our teffilin we praise him in his he praises us
Q) what was unique about korban pesach in the world of korbanos
A)meshech chochma(behaloscha) rambam-1st korban in hilchos korbanos 1)root of all korbanos chiyuv only in e'y 2)its a reflection of hashgacha (groups all =avadim serving h') 3)anti a'z why only 2 through out the midbar (2-40)? (2-40) after agel and peor rashi(shemos) hava amina every ger bring a kp why ? to counter a'z he's turning his back on a'z
Q)what is the symbolism of the many halachos of korban pesach ?
)chizkuni(bo)-every halacha was an insult to the egyptians
korban is there god
roast -so they could smell it

we call it the seder but its all miracles anything but seder ?
Chidushei harim -by h’ is all seder
Ram(peirush hamishnayos pirkei avos)all nisim pre programmed
