"Therefore, say to the Israelites: 'I am the Lord, and I will bring you out
from under the yoke of the Egyptians.'"
Deliverance:
"I will free you from being slaves to them, and
Redemption:
“I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with Mighty acts of
judgment."
Completion:
"I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will
know that I am the Lord your God, Who brought you out from under the
yoke of the Egyptians."

The Main Seder Plate with all the elements:
1. ZeRoah - the roasted shank bone of a lamb, a symbol of
the paschal lamb that was roasted and eaten on the seder
night in Temple days.
2. Bettzah - an egg, hard-boiled and roasted, to symbolize
the festive seder meal in Jerusalem of old. It is also a
symbolic food eaten by mourners. Its oval shape
(denoting no beginning and no end) symbolizes eternal
life.
3. Maror - bitter herbs, like horseradish, to denote the bitter
suffering of the Hebrew slaves in Egypt.
4. Charoset - a sweet mixture of chopped apple and nuts,
mixed with cinnamon and moistened with wine or juice.
This symbolizes the mortar and clay with which the
Hebrews did their grueling work.
5. Karpas - parsley or celery, to be dipped in salt water and
eaten at ease.
6. Korech - ground horseradish or romaine lettuce, to be
eaten with matzah as a sandwich. It is similar to the
maror.
7. Salt Water - water containing much salt, used for
dipping the karpas (parsley).

The Hostess was responsible to light the candles to began the Seder ....while lighting the candles she recites the scriptures....
one for 'creation', "Remember the
Sabbath" (Exodus 20:8), and one for 'redemption', "Observe
the Sabbath" (Deut. 5:12).

On the Seder table, there are three matzot (plural), specially baked for seder use, are put
on a large plate and covered with a cloth. Matzah is
unleavened bread. Three whole matzot are required to be set
at the head of the table. Placed in cloth that have three compartments, one for each matzah.
Before the Seder starts the Host (father) takes from the middle of the cloth a piece of matzah and breaks it in half, wraps it back up in a separate cloth and hides it for later....At the end of dinner the children will go find it and bring it back to the Seder table. At that we break and passed out to the family to be taken in remembrance of our Lord and his sacrifice on the cross for our sins.....
Mike breaking the matzah in half so he can hide it.
Partaking in the Seder elements....
By looks on a few face's....we just had the bitter herb or the parsley dipped in the salty water!!
After celebrating the Seder it was then time for some YUMMY dinner.... chicken, potatoes, veggie and salad. For desert there was fruit and sweet bread!!!
Thank you Lord!
When I looked at this center piece it represents to me the Marriage of the Jew and Gentile......
I pray Lord your truth be known to ALL....
I pray Lord your truth be known to ALL....
Blessed are You, O Lord our God,
King of the Universe....
