In Vain

What are the Ten Commandments?


When It Rains, It Pours

It is forbidden to carry a covering made to use as a protection against the sun or rain, that is, an umbrella, on Shabbat. Opening the umbrella over one's head would be a violation of the prohibition against creating a canopy. [Torah.org] ... Even if there is an Eruv.

Ashkephardic


Ashkenazic Jews are the Jews of France, Germany, and Eastern Europe. Sephardic Jews are the Jews of Spain, Portugal, North Africa and the Middle East.

Sephardic Jews may eat rice, corn, peanuts and beans during Pesach, while Ashkenazic Jews avoid them.

The Fourth Question


Why do we recline? One of the Four Questions asked during Maggid.

It is a mitzvah to recline (to the left side) at the seder, to show a relaxed feeling of freedom and royalty.

Seder: Lit. order. 1) The family home ritual conducted as part of the Passover observance.
