Pesach

According to Ben Zoma – whose ruling we accept, in that we mention the Exodus every night when we say Kriyat Sh'ma – we will not speak of the Exodus at all during the times of the Messiah. And even according to the Sages, though it will be mentioned, it will be clearly secondary. This raises a strong question: Did the Haggadah include this dispute simply in order to detract from the importance of the Exodus after the Mashiach comes?! We are all seated around the festive Seder table - is that the time to minimize the importance of out miraculous departure from Egypt?! The answer is that the opposite is true...

We are living in the period of the Final Redemption – but just like in Egypt, it is up to us to complete the release from physical bondage by attaining spiritual freedom.

Were it not for the Exodus, history would have simply come to a halt, and we, the Jewish people, would still be enslaved to the same Pharaoh.

The Jewish People languished in slavery & degradation for more than a century. Somehow, rather than blame Hashem for our sad state of affairs, we reached out to Him & looked to Him to save us.

Exodus sounds far away from us, but is it so?

Many have discussed the nature of Avraham’s sin of asking, “How will I know [my progeny will inherit the Land]”? Avraham speculated whether his children would succeed in handling the gift of the Land in a way that they would live an independent national life in it.
