In reimagining Exodus or using the rich symbolism of the seder to make meaning for contemporary readers, poets have succeeded in fulfilling the haggadah's maxim that in every generation we are obligated to see ourselves as if we ourselves had left Egypt. We will look at several of these poems, some of which will be appropriate for our seder tables. On-line only with Rabbi Pam Wax. Pre-register to receive the Zoom link.
