Passover 2020

from *HATIKVAH: The Hope by Steve Shapiro

/

lyrics

Passover is a holiday with a message of liberation from slavery. We remember that many generations throughout history have endured tyranny and that they have survived. The plagues that befell Egypt may seem distant – locusts, frogs, hail and fire raining down on earth.

Our current servitude is not to a Pharaoh but to an invisible enemy – a virus – forcing us to live in lockdown. The miracles of Passover provide a recipe for surviving the current pandemic. They teach us patience and resilience. They teach us to trust that the situation will get better. They also help us remember previous generations who suffered through other dark times.

This pandemic will PASS OVER us. It will end. We have been tested before and we have survived.
