This is the Exodus of the 21st Century
We are creating the Passover of the 21st century, and this all-important thing, can be a part of your history…
For years we have been telling the story of the Exodus, a week full of family gatherings around the story, from Sunday to Monday.
We read the Haggadah together, turn to the left, take the matzah wrapped in lettuce and dip in charoset – the sages of the generations simply knew that in order to assimilate memory, it is not enough to tell history, there is a way to tell, and the way must pass with active message and action.
But it’s not a big secret for any of us… Every beginning psychology student will explain to us that active memory is preserved 4-8 times more than passive memory. All in all, it makes sense, because that’s how we did about each of our attempts at extermination, almost…
Precisely in relation to the greatest extermination attempt of the Jewish people, the one that took place less than 80 years ago, the one in which they tried to exterminate us not only in one country, but in 3 different continents, both in Europe, Asia and Africa. The one that followed us all to the Land of Israel, again.
Precisely for him we are still passive, we hear and see history, instead of experiencing the story through hands and feet – but no more!
We invite you to take part with us in creating an active tradition for Holocaust remembrance – just as we sang “We were slaves” a few days ago, come walk with us on Holocaust and Heroism Day and remember that everyone was heroines and heroes.
10 parallel parades will be held throughout the country, from Eilat to the Galilee, and will illustrate a memory on foot!
With quiet songs and a lot of power in the heart.
