Not Just Exodus: Hebrew Sources in the Seder

Have you ever wondered about the story behind the story of the Pesah Seder and the Haggadah? How did a group of Rabbis in Lod re-fashion the narratives of the Torah to create this ritual? What spiritual ideas do they hold?

In this class we will have a chance to explore 4 texts--not the Exodus story--that sit behind the curtain of the Haggadah. This class is designed for people who want to study text in Hebrew. We will be reading and working through 4 texts together ( that magic Pesah number) and then discussing how they might lead to some deeper levels of understanding of the Pesah and the seder.
