Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:
What does Pesach teach us today?

  • How do the miracles and redemption of Pesach empower us in dealing with our current challenges?
  • What is the main theme of Pesach?
  • Is it the joy of freedom from slavery or the lessons in humility from eating the matzoh?
  • Why don’t we do a thorough internal cleansing of any chometz left in our bodies before Pesach?
  • What is the best way to run a Seder?
  • Is it better to have an enjoyable experience even if we compromise some of the more stringent details?
  • Why are we constantly reminded that we were slaves in Egypt and idol worshippers when we’re not supposed to remind someone of their past sins?
  • Is the Egyptian exile a deeper concealment than that of the tzimtzum harishon?
  • Why are we not all wealthy today as the Jews were when they left Egypt?
  • Why are matzos, and Pesach food in general, so expensive? Is there a spiritual reason for this?
  • Is that why we call matzah “the bread of the impoverished”?!
  • Since Pesach and Nissan represent freedom and redemption, why are some of us bogged down with financial and other problems that make us feel like slaves? Where are our miracles?
  • How can we access the energy of Pesach to resolve our challenges and constraints – financial and otherwise?
  • What do we have to do to earn and deserve the geulah today? What can we learn from Geulas Mitzrayim in this regard?
  • Which was a bigger miracle, being saved from genocide at the hands of the Persians on Purim or at the hands of Pharaoh and the Egyptians on Pesach?
  • What can we learn from the way Moshe dealt with Egypt how we should deal with Hamas and Iran today?
  • What is the best way to thank G-d for the miracles of saving Israel from the Iran attack?
  • When we say Hallel during the seder can we have in mind the miracles of being protected from the Iranian missile attack?
  • Should we avoid celebrating the deaths of our enemies, learning from G-d rebuking the angels for singing when the Egyptians were drowning?
  • What benefit are the prophecies if they're vague and cryptic?
  • Can we give tzedakah on the condition that the hostages be released?
  • Is it possible that our prayers for the hostages are being blocked because of our own inequities?
  • Should we accept teshuva from the Hamas terrorists?
  • Why do we say that the generation that left Egypt had great Emunah?
  • Can Rabbi Jacobson please present a synopsis of a Pesach maamar?
