Chevre, tonight is פֶּסַח (Pesach/Passover). For most of the Jewish world, we’ve spent some amount of time over the past few days (or some cases weeks) preparing the house for Pesach. We clean and rekasher the kitchen, flip over from the chametz dishes, pots and pans, etc to what we use on Pesach. At the Seder, we are supposed to feel as if we were slaves and leaving slavery to freedom. Given that we have been scrubbing and cleaning for the past number of days, and/or cooking up a storm from the family and whatever guests are coming. It often feels like we have been slaving away. Throughout the week of Pesach, we don’t work or try to work less and spend time with friends and family doing fun things. Another sign of slavery is the Matzah that we eat. It is the bread of affliction that we eat during Pesach. So while we may feel like we are slaving away at work online most days, and it does take mental effort, it doesn’t compare to what we do to prepare for Pesach and the freedom we feel during the holiday. Chag Kasher and Sameach.
