Time

I believe the guy said "more than 2,000 years ago." The show is mainly geared towards kids, and kids think of this being the year 2012...so saying "MORE" than 2,000 years ago is true...plus...to a kid....its...like...wow...even BEFORE the year 0....modern time. It may not be "precise"....but I can see why he did it.

Type Of Flower

I have been told that, at the time of the first Matzo, that they did not refine flower as we do today.
Thus the first Matza was made from a more course non-refined flower similar to Whole Wheat flower.
I prefer Whole Wheat Matzo (I generally order from Straits Matzo Co.).
If true, I guess I am eating a more authentic Matzo.

making matzah shmura

Yes, very cute. But it's a no no to have a rabbi make a historical blunder. The Jews were slaves in Egypt two thousand years ago? What happened to King David, and the two Jewish commonwealths? Not counting the time between the Exodus and the kingdom.

Great, but...

How about an Israeli flag in the background at the end? That's true freedom! The US flag is another form slavery - the Golden Handcuffs of Galut (Exile). Chag Sameach (have a happy festival)!
