  1. Shalom and welcome back to Israel with Aline! And welcome back to my home here in Jerusalem, the Jewish Passover - Pesach, is coming
  2. so today we are going to talk about how this Biblical holiday is celebrated nowadays, so if you’re ready, let’s get started!
  3. Like all Jewish feasts, it starts with the lighting of candles, the women of the house light two candles and then the whole family goes to the Synagogue, and on the way back from the Synagogue, the whole family
  4. gathers around the table, and here starts the fun part and the ceremony itself that we call Leil Haseder, and here, we have several special elements that I brought for us to see
  5. and we are going to talk about them, there are more guys, and everything that we are going to do and talk about is in this book which is called Hagada Shel Pesach - the story of Pesach, I will also put in the description of this video a little bit of sources for
  6. those who want to read the texts in Portuguese. And everybody will read the book together, while we do the ceremony, and each family does it at a different pace, in my husband's family,
  7. I mean, my father-in-law is a Rabbi, in his house this dinner together with the ceremony is usually four hours long, of course there are people who do it faster and there are people who do it more slowly
  8. but in our house it's usually four hours, so, everybody, there are a lot of things to do. And the first one is Kidush, it’s the prayer of wine, and a question that I often receive is in relation to the wine,
  9. if it is alcoholic or not, the wine in Judaism is alcoholic in the biblical times and also nowadays. But not necessarily, for those who can't or don't want to drink alcoholic wine,
  10. you can, without any problem, make with grape juice. Also guys, because this is the first of the glasses, while reading the Haggada, you drink four glasses of wine per person,
  11. so not everybody wants or can drink this amount of wines; and also the size of the glass varies, so you can also do it with a smaller glass but the idea is
  12. that during the ceremony we will drink four glasses of wine. The next prayer is the Shecheianu, which has an even more special meaning this year, the prayer is as follows:
  13. "BARUCH ATÁ A-DONAI ELOHEINU MELECH HÁOLAM SHECHEYANU VEKIMANU VEHIGUIYANU LIZMAN HAZÉ", we are thanking you for our lives, and that we arrived until this moment, I think that this last year that we are living that started even before the last Passover,
  14. before the last Easter, I think that it's even more important than in any other year to give thanks for our lives, and also indirectly for our health. And after Shecheianu,
  15. we start with Keara, Keara is this dish with all these elements, and the first one we takes is the Karpas, which can be different vegetables, here at our house
  16. it is a radish, and we get Karpas and we get a little pot of water and salt, and we dip it in water and salt. Now what a strange thing this water with salt and radishes, what has one thing to do with the other?
  17. The water with salt, it reminds us of the tears and suffering of our ancestors in Egypt, and the radish, in reality it doesn't have much to do with anything, the idea of ​​the radish is precisely to awake children's curiosity.
  18. A good part of what we do in this ceremony is to awake children's curiosity. And the next song that is sung is Ma Nishtana, which is sung by the younger children of the house, this year we won't have children
  19. because the party is going to be reduced. But in my out-of-tune way, how is the song: MÁ NISHTANÁ HALÁYLA HAZÊ MICOL HALELOT? That is the first verse that is repeated several times, and it means
  20. what is different on this night from all the other nights? I'll put here on the side the lyrics of the song here for those who want to read the whole song, but the idea is to tell why this night is different from all
  21. the other nights, because every night of the year we can eat bread, and unleavened bread. And on this night we only eat unleavened bread, and why all this? Because through the children's questions, they will arouse curiosity
  22. and so we can tell them the story of Pesach, and I want to tell you also the story of Pesach, the story is freedom, is the end of slavery in Egypt, so another name for Pesach is Chag Hacherut - the feast of freedom
  23. now what does Pesach mean, Passover in Hebrew? Pesach means to pass over, because in Egypt God sends the ten plagues and the last plague will be the death of the firstborn, and the Angel of Death will pass
  24. between the houses of Egypt, and enter inside the houses of the Egyptians and kill the firstborn but the Jews will mark their doors, the thresholds of their doors with blood, and the Angel of Death will pass over
  25. from the house of the Jews, and this is the name of the holiday: Pesach, because the Angel of Death jumped, passed over the house of the Jews, and did not harm our firstborn,
  26. and the readings follow, we read about slavery in Egypt, that we were slaves in Egypt, slaves of the Pharaoh, and we will continue reading talking about slavery, about texts both from the Torah
  27. and from the book of Exodus itself, and also written by Rabbis, until now. The next part, which talks about the ten plagues of Egypt so here guys, is written in red
  28. the ten plagues, and when we read, we read each or each one, and then we take our little finger and for example, we say "dam" which is blood, and we take our finger, put it in the wine, take a drop and put it in the napkin
  29. wich I don’t have at the moment, I’ll put it in the corner of the plate, and so we go and take ten drops from each of the glasses, each one takes from his own glass because the wine symbolizes joy,
  30. so we are diminishing our joy, because we can't be happy for someone else's suffering. Even though it was the suffering of the Egyptians, and even though it was suffering of Pharaoh, the one who enslaved us,
  31. we cannot be happy because of their suffering, so in the ten plagues we diminish our joy a little also in solidarity, in solidarity with them. And of course we couldn't miss the Matzah, the unleavened bread
  32. I'll leave a recipe up here for those who want to try to make it at home, but unleavened bread is actually a bread that is not leavened, and that's why it looks like a giant salt and water cracker.
  33. And because the people of Israel, they left Egypt quickly, they didn't have time to let the bread ferment. And we have specifically three Matzot, which is the plural of Matzah, we have three unleavened breads,
  34. they represent the entire people of Israel. One is for the Levites, another for the Cohen, who are the family of priests, who are part of the Tribe of Levi, and the third is the rest of the people of Israel
  35. so all the people are represented here. Both the priests and the Levites and all the rest of the people of Israel. And now let's go back to Keara, to our meal and we have now the bitter herbs,
  36. the Maror, so we have here two types of bitter herbs here: this one is called Chazeret, which is a strong root, it is really strong guys! And the other bitter herb can actually be any bitter plant, it can be a lettuce
  37. a little bit more bitter, it has different traditions. But then we will eat two types of bitter plants and they literally remind us of the bitterness and suffering that our ancestors went through.
  38. And what else is there in Keara? There's the Charoset, which as you can see, it doesn't come out. It is a mixture of apples with dates, nuts, it’s super delicious, but as you can see it doesn't look like the best thing in the world, because it just
  39. looks like mortar. And the idea is to remind us exactly of the mortar used in the constructions that were made in Egypt, and there is an egg and a Zroa here, Zroa is literally an arm, it’s usually a bone,
  40. or a little piece of a chicken wing, and they remind us of the sacrifice, the sacrifice of the Passover lamb that was made in the Temple of Jerusalem. There are people even today
  41. that yes, eat lamb at that dinner, but most families do not, neither in our family. And yes, these two elements remind us of the lamb. The sacrifices they were made in the Temple of Jerusalem,
  42. and the moment the Jerusalem Temple ceases to exist, when it will be destroyed in the seventies after Christ, the sacrifices stop and even nowadays, Judaism does not make animal sacrifices. And precisely
  43. it's a great discussion, we made videos here talking about the Third Temple in Jerusalem, so it is a discussion of whether or not there will be animal sacrifices in the Third Temple, that is to say whether Judaism
  44. will you return to sacrifices or not? But for now sacrifices they don't exist, and yes we have reminders for the sacrifices. My favorite phrase
  45. I'll save it for the end, but before that just remember that everything we do on Passover has a symbolism and reminds us of the biblical passages that we are remembering, of the exit from Egypt,
  46. the suffering, the tears, the mortar of the constructions, the heavy work, the hurried exit from Egypt, also the people of Israel, I mean, everything here has a symbolism.
  47. As I said, the dinner takes four hours, I am not going to keep you with me for four hours, but there is a phrase that is said in the Passover that is the following: L'SHANA HABA'AH B' YERUSHALAYIM, that next year
  48. we will be in Jerusalem, and it is the dream and it is the prayer that was made by Jews over two thousand years! I mean, the Jews were in exile for almost two thousand years, and they spread around the world,
  49. and the phrase that my father spoke, that my grandparents spoke, that my great-grandparents spoke always praying and asking, that maybe next year at Passover we will be in Jerusalem, and we are here! I am now in Jerusalem,
  50. I'm going to celebrate another Easter in Jerusalem, so a prayer that has been said for generations which is being fulfilled, I think it has great power and is something that is said all over the world.
  51. And I also hope that next year, you can be in Jerusalem maybe at Easter, maybe on another date, but Jerusalem is really the heart of the people of Israel, the heart of the Bible,
  52. so many passages happens here, and the last thing is when we are in Jerusalem, how do we make this prayer? How can I in Jerusalem be praying that I want to be in Jerusalem
  53. if i'm already here? So when we are here in Jerusalem, we add a little bit at the end, so we say: L'SHANA HABA'AH B 'YERUSHALAYIM HABNUIA, that next year we will be in Jerusalem,
  54. but we say Yerushalayim Habnuia, that we will be in Jerusalem rebuilt , that we can return to the glory of Jerusalem at the time of the Jerusalem Temple, and that the Temple may be rebuilt. so with this
  55. I want to close my Haggadah here, close my book and wish you all a Happy Easter! Jewish Easter, Christian Easter, Felices Pascuas! I wish that we may have much health
  56. that we may thank for our freedom, for so many good things that we do have and that's it, CHAG PESSACH SAMEACH, a Happy Easter party to everyone,
  57. and see you all next time, everybody!
