Maror

(Dip the Maror in the Charoset and make a sandwich with Matzah)

Leader:

This carries out the practice that was done at the time of the Temple.

"With unleavened bread and with bitter herbs, they shall eat it."

Group:

BORUCH ATTO ADONOI ELOHENU MELECH HO‘OLOM ASHER KIDD’SHONU B’MITZVOSOV V’TZIVONU AL ACHILAS MOROR.

Praised are you, Adonai, our God, sovereign of the universe, who has made us holy through His commandments, commanding us to eat the bitter herb.

Leader: 

For us, the Maror represents the bitterness we have felt about what is valued for us women. 

For us, the Charoset represents the physical hardships we go through to try and meet these values. 

 (Eat the festive meal)
