Issue 3

A lot of time, thought, and effort has gone into delivering a first class publication. This edition is themed, appropriately for the time of year, around ‘freedom’. We hope that you find in it ideas and per- spectives that are stimulating, challenging, and thought provoking. Above all, we hope that it will enrich your Pesach and provide extra material for discussion and debate.

Pesach is a time when we as Jews relive the first week of our nationhood. The pinnacle is the first night that literally re-enacts the last night in Egypt as the proto-Israelite nation sat poised between slav- ery and freedom. But the key mitzvah of the night is oriented around a conversation: the Haggadah.
