היינועבדים (We were slaves). Shmuel and Rav disagreed about the perspective of the central story to be shared at the Seder table. Why was it that that the rabbis disagreed on how the story of Pesach should be shared at the seder? I believe that this was because Shmuel proposed that the story was to explain of how the Jews came from physical slavery to liberation and Rav showed that the main lesson of the seder was of our turning away from idols to following one, true god. Both of these conclusions are accepted, but there are two different versions with Shmuel’s story beginning with “We were slaves” and Rav’s with “In the Beginning”.
