Asked by the youngest present, the Four Questions truly launches the Passover seder. The most important attribute in being human is the ability to question, to learn, to grow. True freedom, as Passover represents, requires us to actively understand our faith and our mission.

Why is this night different from all other nights? On all other nights we eat leavened bread and matza. On this night, only matza. On all other nights we all kinds of vegetables. On this night, bitter herbs. On all other nights we do not dip even once. On this night, twice. On all other nights we eat sitting or reclining. On this night, we all recline. |
