Greetings from the צפרדע, or: Happy Passover

How could one of these guys ever be a plague?

I’ll probably be in and out. I’m going to shul tonight and to the Fuzzies tomorrow.

I’ll leave you with he text of my favorite portion of the liturgy, the invitation to all to come share our celebration of freedom.

This is the bread of affliction that our fathers ate in the land of Egypt.

Whoever is hungry, let him come and eat;

whoever is in need, let him come and conduct the Seder of Passover.

This year we are here; next year in the land of Israel.

This year we are slaves; next year we will be free people.

Pursuing liberation is still a struggle, I find. But I hope we’re all getting somewhere. Chag v’kasher sameach to my Jewish friends, a blessed triduum to my Christian friends, and liberation and the assurance of divine redemption to everyone in and out of Armitageworld.
