Passover and The Four Sons - Rabbi Asher Weiss

[Music] [Applause] This is a short message for our dear friends at Oroak. A message. What brings us all together at is the vision. The vision of the late shashiva. A vision of Kiruim. A vision of bringing Bringing all of Kesh Bo's kind all of Kesh Bo's precious children back home. Lea say that is a magnificent night. It is a night of education. It is a night of we all wish we all hope. We all d and we all aspire that all our children should be but not always is it the way that will be. It is the nature of the human condition. Sometimes part of the family. We have the tum, we have the and to our dismay sometimes we have the Russia and at the lea we hope to see them all. Yes, we hope that the Russia is also going to be there with us. He's part of our family. We cannot ignore him. We hope he's going to sit around the table. And sometimes it'll be unpleasant to hear what he has to say. The Russia is even more blunt and more annoying. He says, What do you want from my life? What is this all about? What is this burden you put on my shoulders? Hurts, pains to hear, but we want him to be there. And sometimes it might not be pleasant for him to hear what we have to say, but we invite him and we very much hope he's going to be there with us. And our prayer and our hope is when the seder is over. The went on and on telling the story of when did they feel we got there. We achieved our goal. When all said time has come, time has come to be then they knew this is our sed. When all the Talmid will say with one voice, time has come to say time has come to save you. That is what the Seder is all about. We want them all around the table. They're all part of our family and we care for them all. We love them all and we hope when it'll be over they all will say one additional thought not about maybe what we define as pes is the very first we got by and pes is unique unique different than any other carbon. Any lambda knows that there are two different categories of carbonas and cibbed individuals bring that carbon aid. What is It's ahead. It is upon each individual. But unlike any other, you cannot bring it by yourself. You need a group. An individual can bring this carbon. Everybody agrees. You cannot do this on your own together with others. There's an additional regarding if you are part of one, you're stuck with that. And you cannot decide when you come into the room and you look around. I don't like these people. They're not enough. I would like to sit with my with my with my rebi. No, this is your and these are the people you're going to sit with at this most magnificent night of the year as a special and that is you do with your neighbors. You cannot choose whom you going to spend the night with. You cannot choose I want I'm a great I want to sit with my with my no you and your neighbors regardless of who they are what they're called and how they look those are your neighbors and it is with them that you're going to bring the carbon pes and why it was that so important we went down to as a family. We came out of Mitim as a people, as a nation. No longer one little family, no longer one tribe, a people. And the fundamentals of nationhood is caring togetherness. You have your and it is with them you're going to spend this most magnificent night. We went out of and the says these are your neighbors. You see them, you care for them and it is with them that you're going to spend This magnificent night and together share the carbon pes is the call of our times is just as important. And when we hope that a keshb will be malaris that our phyis would go up to the andesh will respond to our phyis. He who loves his neighbors regardless of who they are. And he's m his relatives, his family. will answer your prayers and all your will be. So my dear friends at keep up your holy work and of love your neighbors have all family members sitting around the table and let us hope that at the end of this night all together will say all together will call outu Have a beautiful.
