Rabbi Jonathan Tawil | Before Your Passover Seder Starts… Invite Someone Who Needs a Place

Before your Passover Seder begins, there is a powerful Jewish tradition that reminds us of the true spirit of the holiday: opening our homes to others. On Seder night, families gather to tell the story of the Exodus from Egypt, eat matzah, and celebrate freedom. But the Passover message is not complete if someone nearby has nowhere to go. That’s why the Haggadah begins with the invitation: “Let all who are hungry come and eat.” In this video, we explore the beautiful mitzvah of inviting guests to the Pesach Seder—neighbors, students, travelers, or anyone who might otherwise spend the night alone. A simple invitation can turn a meal into a moment of kindness, unity, and true Jewish connection. As you prepare for Pesach, remember that the greatest way to celebrate freedom is by sharing your table. ✨ May this Passover Seder be filled with joy, faith, and meaningful connections.
