The Real Haggadah



Is it really necessary more than 3000 years on to commemorate our ancestors' freedom from slavery? Can't we move on to pressing contemporary issues?

Other forms of slavery
We can be slaves to many other things: work, money, food, sex, drugs, technology, TV, computers and other material goods. Despite all the advances in our society, people seem to be working longer and harder than ever! Pesach is a great reminder that we still must struggle to truly be "free".

comment on Rabbi Aron Moss's article
I spent all day reading articles on the meaning of passover to read at our seder. All were too long and wordy. This article by Rabbi Aron Moss is what I have been searching for! It is short- only one page, practical and relevant . It encourages us to be better people. Thank you Rabbi for your brilliant insights and article!

slavery
It means exactly what it says. Even centuries ago, it was so traumatic it still resonates today.
Slavery was apparently once widespread, then it became a prize for the winners of wars. It has made a comeback through child labor and traficked women.
