The Torah was commanded to us by Moses "Blessed be He" corresponding to four sons the
Torah spoke "one wise" and "one wicked" and "one simple" and "one who does not know
how to ask"
A here He is blessed "Blessed is He who blessed

He, corresponding to four sons the Torah spoke, one wise and one
wicked and one complete and one who does not know how to ask ::

you? And you also say to him according to the laws of the Passover, one does not conclude after
the Passover with a dessert ::
Passover
Page 27
Wise
What does he say? What are these testimonies,
statutes, and judgments which the Lord
our God commanded you? And you shall answer him according to the laws of the Passover sacrifice,
that nothing may be eaten after it as a dessert.
Wicked
What does he say? What is this service
to you? To you and not to him. And because he excluded himself
from the collective, he denied the essence. You also blunt his teeth and say
to him: It is because of this that the Lord did for me when I went out of Egypt. For me and not for him; had
he been there, he would not have been redeemed.
Simple
What does he say? What is this? Tell
him, with a strong hand ⟦the Lord⟧ brought us out
from ⟦there⟧
Page 28
And His children saw His might, they praised and gave thanks to His name, and also His kingship
and with desire they accepted upon themselves; Moses and the children of Israel answered You in song
with great joy and all of them said:
Who is like You among the gods, O Lord, who is like You
awesome in praises, doing wonders
Completed
Mighty heights:
Have pity O God, have pity, shine, shine and we shall curse ⟦illegible⟧
with the strength of a hand established ⟦illegible⟧
perfectly
with God the mighty:
Knower of mysteries
as it is said, and it shall be for you like the day

Passover Haggadah
It says, "Because of this did the Lord do for me when I came out of Egypt." One might think [this starts] from the New
Moon; the teaching says, "On that day." If [it says] "On that day," one might think while it is still day;
the teaching says, "Because of this." I only said "Because of this" at the time
when Matzah and Maror are placed before you.
And [in Judeo-Arabic dialect]
When this answer to the wicked one begins
it is necessary to answer the wicked one on Yom Kippur
For from the new month he went out in our exodus from Egypt; it is possible from the head
of the month; the teaching says "On that day." If "On that day," it is possible
from before the day; the teaching says "Because of this." I only said "Because of this"
at the time when Matzah and Maror are placed before you.
In the beginning
our ancestors were idol worshipers, and now
He has brought us near

⟦...⟧
Brought us before Mount Sinai and gave us the Torah
And did not bring us into the Land of Israel, it would have been enough for us
How much more so is the double and multiplied goodness that the Omnipresent has bestowed upon us
That He brought us out of Egypt and executed judgments upon them
And executed judgments upon their gods and killed their firstborn
And gave us their wealth and split the sea for us
From
The words of Rabban Gamliel
Rabban Gamliel used to say: Anyone who has not said these three things on Passover
Has not fulfilled his obligation, and these are they: Passover offering, Matzah, and Maror
The Passover offering that our ancestors used to eat when the Holy Temple was standing
For what reason? Because the Holy One, blessed be He, passed over the houses of our ancestors in Egypt
And I took
I am the partner whom we took, O group
As it is said: And you shall say, It is a Passover sacrifice to the Lord, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel
In Egypt when He struck the Egyptians and saved our houses; and the people bowed and prostrated themselves
Jacob

Jacob went down to Egypt and sojourned there with a few people, and there he became a nation, great, mighty
and numerous: And he went down to Egypt ::
And it was taken
to the assembly to the creation from
Jacob and he went down to Egypt and sojourned there in a small group
and became there a great nation, strong and numerous: And he went down to Egypt
to the assembly that went down to Egypt: And he sojourned there
and lived there: With a few people: In a small group as it is said
With seventy souls your forefathers went down to Egypt, and now the Lord your God has made you
as the stars of the heaven for multitude ::
Blessed be
the one who keeps His promise to Israel, blessed be He
for the Holy One, blessed be He, calculates the end
to do as He said to Abraham our father at the Covenant between the Pieces, as it is said
And He said to Abram, you shall surely know that your seed will be a stranger in a land not theirs
and they shall serve them

And spread a shelter of peace over us and over all His people Israel
May these faces help, and afterwards he shall take his cup in his hand:
And he shall say pleasantly and with a loud voice
He shall bring you near and choose you, He is with you
Its explanation:
You are our Lord, O Lord our God and our King, You are the one who
has increased upon us favors, goodness, and blessings more than we desire,
we shall truly belong to You and we do not fulfill our duties to You, O Lord of lords,
O King of kings, O Holy One, O Worshipped One, O Merciful One, O Kind One,
I am a humble servant desiring Your service, O God.
The congregation answers and says to him, O our master,

against us to destroy us, but the Holy One, Blessed be He, saves us from their hand :.

Go out and learn what Laban the Aramean sought to do
to our father Jacob, for Pharaoh only decreed

He brought us out, and God our Master brought us out from Egypt, not by the hand of an angel, nor by
the hand of a seraph, nor by the hand of a messenger, but God—blessed be His name and exalted be His majesty—
He Himself in His own glory brought us out from Egypt, as it is said in Your Torah:
"And I will pass through the land of Egypt on this night."
And He went down, and in Your Torah it is written: Say, O Lord, we went down, he went down
with our ancestors to Egypt, and he resided there, and he settled
down there; he settled to be made [a nation], not like Pharaoh, for the sake of a great multitude in the land
in a time of wandering, and he lived there to inform you of the magnitude of the hardship, as
it is said: "And he became there a nation, great, mighty, and numerous."

Behold, more ancestors in the mouth and heart of trust, and He ⟦erases⟧ they will finish the grace
Captivity in mouth and heart of sayings:
In my contempt at the time of burning, for they divined among servants
A serpent descended to Hebron, righteousness and understanding
Draw in your God among the plunderers of the nations in abundance:
In the trough I shall call at the time of strength in looking wearied
Their wisdom was hidden for help and rages

as it is said: And they set over them taskmasters to

Pithom and Raamses.

Our toil, this refers to the sons, as it is said:
And
every son that is born you shall cast into the river.
Perhaps [the decree] of Pharaoh [was like] Nimrod, and every son etc. :
And he saw
our distress, this refers to the oppression, as it is said: And I also
have seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress
them :
From here it is precise that for 'oppression' they say 'severe oppression' :

oppress them :

to bring forth, and not a seraph to destroy, and not a messenger, but
His essence and His glory, He in His soul and His being, as He said: And I will pass

The explanation of 'be strong and courageous' is like a great voice, and its meaning is with the mouth, meaning a teller of everything said here
and here regarding Pharaoh, and his name shall be magnified etc. its meaning is a loud blast as written 'the Lord' ::

shall glorify and exalt Your remembrance, our King, continually; from eternity to eternity
You are God, and besides You we have no King, Redeemer, Savior, Liberator, Deliverer,
Provider, and Commiserator in all times of trouble and distress; we have no King but You.
God of the first and of the last, God of all creatures, Lord of all generations,
Who is extolled with many praises, Who guides His world with loving-kindness and His creatures with mercy.
The Lord neither slumbers nor sleeps; He awakens the sleepers and rouses the slumberers,
He makes the mute speak, sets the bound free, supports the falling, and raises those bowed down;
to You alone we give thanks.

And in the arm
the meaning of it is this sword as it is written

And with great terror
this is the revelation of the Shekhinah, as it is said
Or has God ventured to go and take for Himself a nation from the midst of
another nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by an outstretched arm,
and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes
