Title

Celebrating Passover in the Shadow ofCoronavirus

Description

But then another part of me thinks that if this is G‑d’s Master plan, there is an opportunity here. If I let go of the disappointment, the loneliness, the unfamiliar turf, I’ll be open to the unique experiences and possibilities of this Passover. Every holiday has a body and a soul. The body of the holiday is the external dimension, our expectations of what the holiday should look like. The soul is the core of the holiday, the connection to G‑d that is accomplished through all the mitzvahs of the holiday. So yes, the body of my Passover is certainly less exciting or glamorous than usual. But hey, I’m almost forced to focus on the soul of the holiday, the part that doesn’t change under any circumstances.
