Shabbat HaGadol: "Being Here, Being There"
2022-04-09 19:00
The late anthropologist Clifford Geertz once described the great challenge of studying remote civilizations as learning to straddle between “here” – the immediate world that a scholar inhabits – and “there” — the distant world that is being analyzed. A successful scholar is able to be simultaneously both here and there.
This dialectic resonates on Pesach night. We live in the present moment. Yet, we are charged to also inhabit a very different world from more than three thousand years ago. The Seder allows us to build a bridge between these two loci —here and there— by affirming our present reality even as it enables us to return to a time and place that is far away. In fact, only by constructing such a bridge can we fully understand the past, succeed in the present, and achieve a redemptive future.
In this year’s Drasha we will explore how the Seder facilitates this process by its deliberate structure, rich biblical and rabbinic sources, diverse ritual commandments, and progression of themes.
All men and women of the community are invited to attend.

GUIDE TO PASSOVER
Bedikat Chametz – Search for Chametz
This year the search for Chametz will take place on Thursday, April 14 after 8:15pm. All homes should be cleansed of Chametz prior to the search. After sundown the search for any leftover Chametz takes place. This search is customarily done with a candle but contemporary authorities instruct us to use electric lights as well to ensure that no crumb escapes our sight. The head of the household renounces possession of all Chametz unknown to him/her remaining in the house.
Erev Pesach – Fast of the first born
This year the eve of Passover occurs on Friday, April 15. All first-born Jewish males are to fast as an expression of gratitude to God who spared the Jewish first-born when their Egyptian counterparts were slain. Participation in a siyum, the completion of the study of a Talmudic tractate, is accepted in lieu of fasting. On Friday, April 15, Morning Services will take place at 7:30am followed by Rabbi David Flatto’s siyum on a Tractate, followed by a festive breakfast. The traditional biur chametz, the burning of the Chametz, will take place on Friday, on the third floor terrace, no later than 11:40am. No Chametz may be eaten after 10:43am on Friday, April 15. All leftovers must be disposed of by 11:46am.
Chametz can be consumed starting Saturday, April 23 at 9:00pm.

Based on true events in 1948, two cultures have their values tested as an Egyptian filmmaker is tasked with documenting a raid on an isolated kibbutz commune. As the situation escalates and takes unexpected turns, both sides must re-evaluate everything they know about life and war.
“In more than two decades of professional movie reviewing and even more of movie-going, it is one of the best movies I have ever seen.” Hannah Brown, Jerusalem Post (Click to read full review)
