My taxi driver invited me to his seder
By
Rebecca Zeff
Israelis often think everyone has somewhere to go to — because they nearly always do; Avshalom went the extra mile, but would I take him up on it?
Andres Spokoiny
The messenger who can’t speak
Pharaoh, with all his glib self-assurance, was brought low, while Moses, with his vulnerable, faltering speech, was chosen by God to lead
Doron Perez
Dayeinu — absurdity and the art of appreciation
The very fact that not one of those stages of the Exodus would have been enough without all of them is what teaches us to value each step of the way
Michael S. Diamond
The four hermeneutical children of the seder
In the middle of a meal whose very name means ’order’ comes the moment when we ask, are we having fun learning now?
Why I hate Passover
By
Michal Yudelman O’Dwyer
The militant gloating at our ancient enemy’s downfall in the most influential Jewish text has no place in modern Israel
Rachel Sharansky Danziger
Carpe diem: Passover and maple syrup
When ’seizing the moment’ became absolutely necessary, it’s likely that matzah wasn’t the only thing not quite ready to go
Op-Ed

Naomi K. Eisenberger

Nicole Nevarez
After Steinhardt, now what?
The Jewish community has so far resisted embracing the systemic change needed to build a gender reality rooted in equality and respect
Dan Perry
Israel’s election was not democratic
The country is now a bi-national state and the right stays in power because a quarter of its population is barred from voting
Andrew Silow-Carroll
Is ‘goy’ a slur?
Sure, the term just means non-Jew or gentile, but when it’s used to separate ’us’ from ’them,’ it’s anything but neutral
Nancy Strichman
Imagine big
From an underprivileged community? Have a startup? Here’s a leg up with the CEOs of major tech companies — but only if you’re in high school
Michelle Orrelle
Invisible threads
My grandmother sewed costumes for Habima after she came to Palestine from Odessa in 1919; in 2019, I think I spotted them in the theater’s window
Monkeys, a car accident, and my 28th birthday
By
Bazy Swirsky Rubin
When breaking the rules means a monkey might die, there’s no way we’re going to risk it; who would?
Top Ops
Yael Unterman
Without the wicked child, it ain’t no seder
I’ll apply ’wicked’ to those I find dogmatic, those who ask rhetorical questions to make their own points, and have no interest in mine
Steve Brown
Into and out of earth’s shadow
My father, an aerospace engineer, wrote of the same problem that caused the Beresheet crash in a language that touched my soul
Yoseif Bloch
Four Daughters
Biblical women represent royalty and redemption, passion and compassion — themes that are surely welcome at any seder
Lisa Keys
The ultimate Passover dessert is made with Peeps
How my Easter candy envy led to joining the sweet, sticky ’hot mess’ of Peeps S’mores Skillet with the bread of affliction
