BS”D
Probably the biggest lesson that
we can take from the seder on Pesach is its name.
Why is it called the seder
(literally, the order)? On a simple level – because we have so many mitzvos to
fulfill that is we don’t perform them in a pre arranged order – we may forget
one or more.
I think there is a deeper reason
as well.
The message of the entire story
of the exodus and the crippling punishment of the Egyptians is precisely that –
that there is an order to the world. Events are not happenstance and there is a
choirmaster that directs everything. If there is one message that we
must internalize on this holy, holy night – this is it.
Have a very meaningful seder
!
