Community Wide Online Seder

Wednesday, April 8, 2020
5:30 PM - 6:15 PM
Community-Wide Online Seder
Before the Yom Tov festival begins, Rabbis Yanoff and Markowitz will host a community-wide online seder at Zoom Meeting ID 412-654-929.   It will be a fast-paced seder - not stopping for the meal, which you can enjoy after we log out of the online seder! (Okay, maybe a bite of gefilte fish, but that’s it.) 

 

This Zoom seder will be recorded, and will then be available on HERE on YouTube - so that if you choose to do your seder later, you can replay it and follow along with us then!

Community-Wide Online Seder Resources

BEST TO HAVE, IF YOU CAN (OKAY IF NOT):
  • A printed version of the haggadah we are using.  You can also have it up on your screen (but then you may not be able to see our faces! -- You can also open it up on a different device.)  Note: This haggadah download is available in these exigent circumstances because Adath Israel owns physical copies.)
  • Wine or grape juice – enough for four cups per person, plus a little for the 10 plagues.
  • Matzah – One box should be more than enough for the ritual stuff.  If you want more of it, that’s on you.  (It will certainly help with the TP shortage.)
  • Bowl with pitcher or cup to wash hands (and a towel)
  • "SEDER PLATE STUFF":  Your Rabbis will have one shankbone and roasted egg, as well as the other items, so that’s optional (see below).  You should try to get:
    • Parsely/salt water and/or boiled potato in salt water
    • Maror (horseradish) – jarred or preferably a grated root
    • Charoset
    • Note that Chef Daniel Israel is offering a seder plate with all ritual items for $36 LINK TO GOOGLE FORM
OPTIONAL ITEMS:
  • Parts of the seder plate that are for SHOW:  shankbone, Roasted Egg, Lettuce, Orange, Purel (!)
  • Other ritual items that we will SHOW:  Elijah cup, Miriam cup
  • Whole scallions (uncut for now – can cut for your charoset if you’d like)
  • Strawberry and chocolate sauce
  • Jumping frog toys, bugs, animals, plague masks, etc.
  • Pillow
  • Gefilte fish or something small for the “meal”
  • A full meal for your household, after we log off (approx. 6:15 PM)
