Everything You Need to Celebrate Passover at Home

I have seen some mention that oat flour can be used as well. Reply

Two or more candles that are similar to those for Shabbat are lit on the evenings of the first and last days. The blessing replaces the word Shabbat with the words "Yom Tov". In the case of the home being outside our Holy Land this is done on two successive evenings, that is to say four times. Reply

You may be able to purchase some from Bubbies (pickles ). Reply

I've tried finding Pesach horseradish too. Last year I couldn't find any either. Reply

Chag sameach in one of the most beautiful places in the world Reply

This is my first Pesach too. I also think about the passage from Egypt. The desert forged a strong people! Reply

Chag Sameach!!! Reply

Hang in there
I was alone a few times while away in Rehab
The person who saved my LIFE O"H
Always reminded me that this Seder and Yom Kippur being alone will be the most meaningful one to myself and God Reply

I too am alone. My only family is my cat. But I am not sad as I do have friends and I have a very good relationship with my rabbi, Rabbi Dovid Goldstein. I will also celebrate Passover seders alone due to the coronavirus. For sure these are not the best of times, but I go from day-to-day with a smile in my heart. It could be worse, I could have advanced stages of cancer - oh wait, I do. I could suffer from narcolepsy - oh wait, I do. I could have large embolisms in each leg - wait a minute, I do. I could have high blood pressure, gout, and curvature of the spine (etc.) - but I do. I don't mean to whine and cry, I'm ok because I feel good about myself and am proud of the life I have (up to this point) - sure, I've had plenty of ups and downs but after all has been said and done, I am happy.

You can keep in touch on zoom. Not on the seder but later. Many synagogue have been keeping in touch with others that way. Never know, you might make a new friend. Reply

I agree with you, but everything is in G-D's hands. Reply

Passover-being alone. I understand your feelings because i also will be alone...
Sad and lonely!.....I am ordering Seder food.for myself (at least I will have that)...Chabad of Olney, ordering from a Jewish caterer and we have to pick up. Be peaceful and safe. Silver Spring Reply

Me too Reply

I too am alone for the first time ever
It is hard but we must be thankful that we are well enough to have the seder. I am still recovering from the virus and although it is lonely I keep reminding myself how fortunate I am to have survived. Please know that all of us who are a line are actually all connected to each other through our aloness. We therefor are really with family.
Wishing you a very beautiful Pesach. Reply

Do you reside in Reisterstown, Maryland? I was stationed near there many years ago as a US soldier with no place to go on Pesach. If I recall correctly, there was a growing Jewish community at or near there. Perhaps there is a Jewish organization that is having a Seder and you would certainly be invited to attend. Reply

Thank You in Reisterstown You're not alone. You're more loving and loved than those who aren't protecting the rest of us by isolating yourself. We're all physically alone because we care about people so it's like one consciousness in it together. Thank you for caring and toughing it out because it is a hard thing to do. I know; I'm very much alone too. Let's comfort ourselves by remembering past Seders when we were kids, with lots of family in attendance, looking for the Afikoman, waiting for Eliyahu, and in my case, watching as my Great-Uncle's face turned bright red when he ate his wife's "chrain"!!!

HAPPY PESSAH TO ALL Reply

Oh my G-d. Thank you for sharing. I am not receiving my chem or radiation just now. But I have other ' Oh yes I do have this or that. And oh yes I buried my husband 2weeks ago. Oh yes etc. Being alone during the virus is just a part of our lives.
I feel good about my life and am happy it's not over yet. I am in love with the chabad way of life for many reasons but a big one is reading your comment. It is beautiful. Esti Reply

Spike, you are not alone! We all, Rabbi Goldstein's students of Lunch-and-Learn, are thinking about you and wish you well.
Happy Passover, Spike. G-d willing, we will all get together again and celebrate life! Reply

You’re right. The Jewish communities have to take this seriously. We’re i live all the Pesach seders have been cancelled. Reply

Matza at the least My daughter has just bought and left for me some matza, with which to celebrate our Festival of Freedom, since (as a susceptible senior) I am not allowed to go shopping myself. I will need to celebrate Pesach alone. If I cannot at least manage to follow this instruction of what to eat during Pesach, then my life will be poorer for it. Reply

I hope you have a really nice Seder, even although you will be alone. I am fortunate to be able to have the Seder with my family. Everyone has been telling me that the Baal HaTurim said that when Moshiach comes everyone will be at home like the first Pesach in Mitzraim. May the coming of Moshiach be soon. Reply
