Freedom on Pesach Night

Rav Tzadok haCohen:

Pesach evening:
We see ourselves as the slaves in Egypt. We go from being bound up to being liberated.


In micro, the experience of liberation...

is in the questioning and answering that is the theme of the evening:


People who have questions are bothered.

Why is this happening? Why do I have to do this?

Why? Why? Why?

Constricting and containing.

When my question is answered there is a sense of liberation. A sense of freedom.

There is a feeling of process - of going from slavery to freedom.

Resolution. Freedom.

Ain mi sheBen Chorin, elah mi sheOsek baTorah

Cheirus, freedom comes through understanding...
