Rabbi Moshe Haber Pesah: From Darkness to Light: The Essence of the Seder Night 4.1.26 · Rabbi Moshe Haber - Daily Mussar/Weekly Perasha

• 0:00
  The angle is you have the classic question monitor not
• 0:04
  Lila is in because I love why is this night different All the
• 0:08
  nights you know the kid is asking is asking because you see
• 0:11
  notice for differences that made him ask questions.
• 0:15
  But according to many that those words have a lot of deeper
• 0:19
  meaning. So take it this way.
• 0:20
  They got one of them this way. Monitor not Lila is actually
• 0:24
  means why is this night different than any other nights
• 0:29
  in which way? Because we have a rule across
• 0:31
  the board. Holiday mitzvot, special holiday
• 0:35
  mitzvot. I always performed during the
• 0:38
  day Shofar during the day love during the day right how I'll
• 0:45
  during the day always the whole year how it was only done during
• 0:49
  daylight. In fact, again Mara Miguela says
• 0:51
  maybe it's Mishnah Miguela. You do not say how little at
• 0:54
  night. They're always done during the
• 0:57
  day. Shafar, lulav, other mitzvot
• 1:02
  that are without that mitzvot, they're always done during the
• 1:05
  day. So the question that the sun is
• 1:07
  asking, the deeper sense says the gong of Venice, Manish
• 1:10
  Nahalila haze, what makes this night special?
• 1:15
  That it's a kind of night that although it's dark and although
• 1:18
  it's night time, it's still as season on mitzvot where really
• 1:22
  the rule across the board is special mitzvot only done during
• 1:25
  the day. That's the question in a deeper
• 1:27
  sense. So in order to answer that
• 1:29
  question, you have to dig a little deeper into the whole
• 1:31
  depth of the night and that is the following.
• 1:35
  How do you answer what makes this night different in all the
• 1:39
  nights? You answer with the following
• 1:41
  concept and that is a right before Macapejorot, right before
• 1:46
  Macapejorot, the last maca. Macapejorot is considered the
• 1:49
  maca that took us out of my sign, the maca that was
• 1:53
  beforehand, that led us to gardens on the final plague
• 1:58
  before the galah was Horshak. And during Horshak, during that
• 2:02
  pitch black, thick dark, we know the whole Binet sail.
• 2:08
  The Jewish people had a clear light, so they had darkness and
• 2:12
  we had light. During that darkness we had a
• 2:15
  certain sense of light. That was what's going on in the
• 2:18
  Makat. Horshik is nepesukim.
• 2:21
  The last makah before the Gula was that makah, and the setting
• 2:24
  was clear. They had darkness and we had
• 2:27
  light. So how do you explain the fact
• 2:30
  that on this night which is dark, tonight is a night we are
• 2:34
  doing special with sport. And even though we don't do
• 2:36
  special with sport typically at night, the real answer is
• 2:40
  tonight is not really darkness. The night of Izzi Ahmed Sain.
• 2:44
  There's the rabbi's brain at night.
• 2:45
  Izzi Ahmed Sain is actually not light laser.
• 2:50
  It has order. It has light to this night.
• 2:53
  That is a sense. There's not, because in this
• 2:55
  darkness Hashem brought light. In fact, the Basu says Lila
• 3:00
  Kayam Yahir, darkness was lit up like day.
• 3:05
  And the sense is that during this night Hashem brought a
• 3:09
  special light, and that light is our connection to Him.
• 3:13
  When other words, in a deeper sense, God took us from a World
• 3:17
  of Darkness and brought us into a world of light.
• 3:19
  That's the real message, which is He connected us to Him, he
• 3:23
  gave us his emunah, he gave us his personal relationship to him
• 3:27
  and he brought light into our lives.
• 3:29
  So in a World of Darkness, cardboard light.
• 3:31
  So specifically we celebrate Siamat Saim during the light,
• 3:35
  lazer during the night to recognize the fact that from
• 3:39
  darkness we were born into a world of light.
• 3:41
  That's the overall theme of this night.
• 3:43
  So why are you having It's what? Why are you saying I'll at
• 3:46
  night? The answer is you're not really
• 3:49
  saying I'll at night. He's saying I'll during the
• 3:51
  light of this time. In fact, the bazook says when
• 3:56
  your son comes to you and you tell him by your maze, the
• 4:02
  bazookie talking telling us about telling our sons says we
• 4:06
  talked our son by Yom. He got to live in ha.
• 4:10
  He tell him by Yom. It's not Yom, it's Lila, but
• 4:14
  it's Yom. In this sense, it's all
• 4:16
  considered daylight. This is one of the greatest
• 4:18
  sources, and this one makes this night different than all of the
• 4:21
  nights because although it was night, it was really light.
• 4:24
  And when we say that those rabbis, we're told by their
• 4:29
  students of Latino, the morning has come, it's the Manchuria
• 4:34
  Shahrit. How could they not tell?
• 4:37
  The answer is the same theme, rabbi say, because they were so
• 4:41
  delved and so involved in the time in time, in this talkative
• 4:45
  time, they brought back that feeling as if it was light
• 4:48
  outside. And that's the overall theme a
• 4:49
  person has to realize that's a very unique, a special night.
• 4:53
  This night is a more special night and year in a certain
• 4:55
  sense. And you're bringing back that
• 4:57
  recognition of the light. One other example is I'm real
• 5:02
  Dhaka that would say his words, Uber Moraga dole, zagi lui,
• 5:07
  remote team also Moraga dole. They have the great light, the
• 5:12
  great wonder, Zagi lui Shakina. That was the revelation of the
• 5:17
  Shakina. Moraga.
• 5:18
  Dole also means that there was a wonder there was a light, which
• 5:21
  means that Hashem came close to us through this gila.
• 5:26
  It was symbolizing the fact they went from a World of Darkness to
• 5:31
  a world of light. God.
• 5:33
  God brought darkness into this light by connecting Himself to
• 5:37
  Him. Taking us out of a world of my
• 5:40
  time into a world of Hashem is going from a world of black into
• 5:45
  a world of light. That's the sense that's
• 5:48
  happening tonight and that is why we're able to say hello at
• 5:51
  night. That's all we have season on
• 5:54
  mitzvot at night. That's why this Lila has, it is
• 5:58
  different than call had a lot because it's a Lila that really
• 6:02
  has or it's a night that has a bright light to the night.
• 6:06
  That's the overall theme and a person's going to feel that.
• 6:08
  Now, that's the important thing to know is that we should feel
• 6:12
  this not only in a reflective manner, we should feel this
• 6:16
  literally tonight because we know, as it says Nagada Hayab
• 6:21
  Adam, a person is obligated to see himself Kilo as if he
• 6:27
  himself left Messiah. So that means I left Messiah
• 6:31
  tonight. I should feel that.
• 6:33
  I should feel this light in my life.
• 6:37
  I should feel this change that would came over me by the fact
• 6:42
  that I haven't shared in my life.
• 6:43
  I should celebrate that and I should feel that tonight.
• 6:46
  That should be how I'm feeling. All right.
• 6:48
  How strong should this feeling be tonight?
• 6:51
  Another note, if you're feeling that you came at him inside him
• 6:54
  tonight, then you're going to feel as if you were want a slave
• 6:59
  and you're going to appreciate the fact that I sham took this
• 7:02
  out and we have to relive this. How far is this reliving go?
• 7:07
  I'm telling you, I learned yesterday the khatams affairs.
• 7:12
  You know, it's a well known question.
• 7:14
  Before any mitzvah, you make it baraka.
• 7:17
  Why don't we make it baraka on the story of Itzahn Mitzahn?
• 7:21
  What do we say, Baraka at the beginning of Margit on the story
• 7:26
  of Itzahn Mitzahn? Your question?
• 7:29
  Oh no, you're about this one mitzvah.
• 7:31
  It's a very big mitzvah. Say baraka.
• 7:34
  I'll tell you what you do make it Baraka.
• 7:38
  But that is said after after at the end of Maggie we say I said
• 7:42
  God, Allah knew I said you took us out of Messiah Mughala
• 7:45
  Davutano. You took our forefathers out.
• 7:48
  You took us out. OK, good answer.
• 7:50
  So why didn't I say that? But a hobby for him.
• 7:52
  You always make a better heart before them at for not after.
• 7:56
  This is a Hatam Safair, a convert originally a goy.
• 8:02
  He's about to become a Jew. He doesn't say that, but a hobby
• 8:06
  boy goes to McVeigh. He can't say that.
• 8:08
  How well is it going? So he waits till he becomes a
• 8:11
  Jew and then he says the Baha. Afterwards he says tonight,
• 8:17
  Lily, it's Ahmad's time. We are reliving that
• 8:22
  development. We're reliving our Gullah.
• 8:25
  And if we're reliving it, we cannot make the Baha the
• 8:29
  beginning of Magid, because you cannot say, my God, if as you're
• 8:38
  saying these words, you are reliving the fact that you were
• 8:41
  at that point or a slave, you didn't have the Torah, you
• 8:44
  didn't have Hashem, you didn't have our development.
• 8:47
  So we wait until the Gila and the night, and then we say the
• 8:53
  barakah because we're reliving the feeling so much that we're
• 8:59
  saying to ourselves, I am actually going from slave to
• 9:02
  freedom. I'm going from bondage to
• 9:05
  freedom. And if I'm going in that degree,
• 9:08
  I cannot say. But aha, before I come out, I
• 9:11
  need to relive the fact that I came out.
• 9:14
  I need to then celebrate it. And then I make a, just how far
• 9:19
  does tonight's reliving go? So now connect these two points.
• 9:22
  We said today #1. And night is a night of light.
• 9:27
  It's a special night. We bring light into this night
• 9:29
  and #2 in this night in our own home, we are reliving that
• 9:34
  feeling in the fullest extent. You're going from a slave to
• 9:37
  freedom. You're going from bondage to
• 9:40
  becoming a Jew. And because that's the reliving
• 9:43
  that you're doing, you are reliving that feeling so much so
• 9:46
  that you cannot even make up an aha.
• 9:48
  These are the two overall themes that are happening tonight.
• 9:52
  What I want to bring out from these two themes, these good to
• 9:55
  ranted out regardless, but I want to bring out from these two
• 9:58
  themes is that a person should realize that the feeling tonight
• 10:02
  is special. The feeling in your homes is
• 10:06
  very unique and that is you are appreciating in your homes, as
• 10:10
  you say over the story, you're appreciating everything that
• 10:13
  exists in your life. You're stopping as you talk and
• 10:17
  you're really saying, I'm thanking God for the life that I
• 10:20
  have. I am feeling the sense of light
• 10:23
  in my life, the unique order that exists in my home, in my
• 10:27
  family, in my life because of God finding us, taking us out.
• 10:33
  That's really when you're celebrating your night is going
• 10:35
  from darkness to light and we're appreciating that.
• 10:38
  You're going from non Jew to Jew and you're appreciating that.
• 10:41
  And that needs to be the tone and the feeling in our homes.
• 10:44
  Like we said in the Shiva morning speech, like a person
• 10:47
  has to think that I feel that I am lucky to be in this position.
• 10:52
  I look around the world, I see darkness everywhere.
• 10:55
  I look around the world, I see evil, evil everywhere, I see
• 10:59
  destruction everywhere. Then I look in my home, I look
• 11:02
  in our community, I look at my family, and I see production,
• 11:05
  beauty, purpose, development, light, being a Jew.
• 11:11
  And I stop and I celebrate. And that is how you can relive
• 11:15
  the feeling in the fullest extent.
• 11:17
  And that is how you could take in the beauty of Isaiah Musan.
• 11:20
  Tonight is in a certain sense the most beautiful and tomorrow
• 11:24
  night the most beautiful nights of the year.
• 11:26
  In what way? Because you reliving the
• 11:29
  development of becoming a Jew, you're reliving everything
• 11:32
  beautiful in your life. And he's saying to Hashem over
• 11:35
  the course of the night, thank you.
• 11:37
  That's what's happening. This is the idea.
• 11:41
  You'll notice this when you get to Diana.
• 11:44
  You'll notice this when you get to Halil.
• 11:46
  You'll notice these themes. You feel that would have been
• 11:49
  enough. That would have been enough.
• 11:50
  That would have been enough. Halil, thank you, Hashem, I'm
• 11:54
  singing a song. These appreciation statements
• 11:58
  are recognitions of what you have and I have in my life.
• 12:01
  And because of that, that's what makes this night special.
• 12:05
  So tonight we need to celebrate. Tonight we need to have that
• 12:08
  feeling. I recognize that although it's
• 12:10
  Lila, it's dark outside, but it's probably light in my home.
• 12:15
  The same way on me is still high that it was dark outside.
• 12:19
  By Makat Roger but among the Jewish people hoping they saw I
• 12:23
  ordered them a short time, they are light.
• 12:25
  We too have the exact same story in our homes tonight, which is
• 12:30
  something that really represents our entire lives there may be
• 12:34
  darkness in the world, but it's light in our homes and in our
• 12:37
  lives and that's why we're celebrating and that's how you
• 12:40
  explain how we have halal and Shu tonight.
• 12:43
  That's how you explain how we have halal by Amazon tonight
• 12:46
  even though halal is never Saturday night.
• 12:48
  This is a theme of our night tonight.
• 12:50
  Follow Nice to be here. Appreciation that.
• 12:54
  Thank you.
