THE SHORT VERSIONS!

It is not unusual for some Seders to take six or more hours – enough time for a baseball double-header (without the hot dogs)! Some Seders, though, take less than a half-hour, not counting the meal. To satisfy those who would rather be watching the game (you know who you are!), here is the Seder, in all its glory, presented in the Abridged, Very Abridged, and Hyper-Abridged versions.

The 30-Second Seder

 

We were slaves in Egypt, now we are free. Let’s have a Seder!

What’s on the Seder plate? Egg, herbs, bone, greens, Charoset.
