We Are What We Do — Why the Torah Shapes the Soul Through Mitzvot P esach

The wise son asks the most thoughtful question of the Seder: Why so many mitzvot? Why all the rituals, details, and commandments connected to the Exodus from Egypt? The Haggadah answers with an unexpected halachah: “Ein maftirin achar haPesach afikoman.” In this morning's breakfast and a class we uncover the profound message behind that answer. Through the teachings of the Sefer HaChinuch and classic sources from Chazal, we explore how Judaism transforms a person through action — and why the Torah insists that redemption be not only remembered, but reenacted.
