Abstract

Few of the memories of my youth stand out as clearly as those of the Seder nights when my family gathered, much as Jews have for millennia, and read from the Haggadah, the book that retells the story of the Exodus from Egypt and the creation of the Passover holiday. Most of all, I remember the following passage from the Haggadah, a responsive reading between the leader and those assembled: Leader : The struggle for freedom is a continuous struggle, for never does man reach total liberty and opportunity. Assembled : In every age, some new freedom is won and established, adding to the advancement of human happiness and security. Leader : Yet, each new age uncovers a formerly unrecognized servitude, requiring new liberation to set man's soul free. Assembled : In every age, the concept of freedom grows broader, widening the horizons for finer and nobler living. [ ARTICLE][1] [1]: /lookup/volpage/71/650?iss=9
