Now let us recognize the other objects on the Seder plate.

The shank bone represents the special lamb sacrifice made in the days of the Temple for the Passover holiday. It is called the pesach, from the Hebrew word meaning “to pass over.” Lamb blood was used to mark the houses that were skipped by the plagues.

One day a Rabbi said that "a woman has just as much business reading from the Haggadot as an orange has on a Seder plate." So now we put an orange on the Seder plate.

This concludes the Seder. Now we eat! Yay!
