Fast Food Nation: The Talmud on the Pesach Seder, Lesson 12

In this class, we embark on a literary journey into the backstory of the biblical terminology used for Matzah, the unleavened bread we’re commanded to consume on Pesach. We discover the deeper messages kneaded into hallowed Torah etymology about the hastily baked bread that serves to define Passover’s narrative! From edible props, to broken spirits and empty pantries, we learn to appreciate the Seder table settings on another level. This Talmud class is on tractate Pesachim page 115b-116a.
