It is so easy to care about garbage!

 It is so easy to care about garbage! It is so easy to care about that! It is so easy to care about things that have no heavenly significance! Vain and vapid things - you can easily get people to care about those things. How many people will be willing to care about the things of eternity? How many people will be willing to be concerned about those things? Nobody! Nobody ever can care about those things.

The Four questions

 How is this night different from all other nights?

On this night, the air whispers secrets to the moon, and the stars gather in solemn assembly. The darkness enfolds the world, cradling both dreams and fears. It is a night pregnant with possibility, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. Perhaps it is different because you asked the question, and in that inquiry lies the magic of curiosity. 🌙✨

On all other nights, we eat chametz (leavened foods) and matzah. Why on this night, only matzah?

On all other nights, we eat chametz (leavened foods) and matzah. But on this special night, we partake only in matzah. Why? Because it symbolizes the haste with which our ancestors left Egypt during the Exodus. When they fled, there was no time for the bread to rise, so they baked unleavened matzah. It serves as a powerful reminder of their journey to freedom. 🍞🔓

As we gather around the Seder table, the matzah becomes a central element, connecting us to our history and the resilience of our people. Its simplicity carries profound meaning, and its taste echoes the bittersweetness of liberation. So, on this night, let us break the matzah together and share in the story of our shared past. 🌟

On all other nights, we eat all vegetables. Why, on this night, maror (bitter herbs)?

This question echoes through generations, A tale of liberation, of ancient celebrations. When the Israelites fled from Pharaoh’s cruel hand, Their journey to freedom, a story so grand.

On Passover eve, as the matzah we break, We taste the maror, a bitter herb’s wake. Its sharpness reminds us of slavery’s chains, The tears shed in bondage, the hardships and pains.

Why maror? Why this bitterness we embrace? To honor our past, to remember our grace. For in bitterness lies strength, resilience, and might, A reminder that freedom is worth the fight.

So we dip it in charoset, a sweet mixture divine, Balancing the bitter with sweetness, a sign. As we recline at the Seder table, hearts full of pride, Maror connects us to history, our heritage, side by side. 🌿

On all other nights, we don't dip even once. Why on this night do we dip twice?

This question echoes through generations, A Passover tradition, a sacred sensation. As the matzah crumbles and wine is sipped, Why this change? Why this double-dip?

Listen closely, my friend, to the tale I’ll unfold, Of ancient freedom, of miracles untold. In Egypt’s dark grasp, we were slaves, oppressed, Our cries reached the heavens, our hearts sorely stressed.

Moses, our leader, with courage so grand, Demanded our freedom, a bold, righteous stand. Pharaoh resisted, his heart hard as stone, Ten plagues rained down, a power unknown.

And then came that night, the fateful eve, When we prepared to leave, our spirits to relieve. The lamb’s blood on doorposts, a sign so divine, Death passed over our homes, a blessing benign.

We dipped our greens in saltwater tears, Remembering the bitterness of those years. Once, we dipped for slavery’s cruel plight, But now, we dip twice, both day and night.

The first dip, parsley or lettuce in hand, Symbolizes spring, renewal, and the Promised Land. The second, charoset, a sweet mixture we taste, Recalling the mortar that bound us in haste.

So, my friend, on this night, we dip with care, To honor our past, our ancestors’ share. Twice we dip, a reminder profound, Of freedom’s journey, on hallowed ground. 🌟🍷🌿

On all other nights, we eat either sitting upright or reclining. Why on this night do we all recline?

On this special night, we recline because it symbolizes freedom and liberation. The act of reclining during the Passover Seder represents our transition from slavery to freedom. It’s a powerful reminder of our ancestors’ journey from bondage in Egypt to redemption. So, as we lean back, we connect with their story and celebrate our own liberation. 🌟🍷🌙

From Physics by Aristotle

  

04:54 minutes left to register for free

when the objects of an inquiry, in any department, have principles, conditions, or elements, it is through acquaintance with these that knowledge, that is to say scientific knowledge, is attained. For we do not think that we know a thing until we are acquainted with its primary conditions or first principles, and have carried our analysis as far as its simplest elements. Plainly therefore in the science of Nature, as in other branches of study, our first task will be to try to determine what relates to its principles.

The natural way of doing this is to start from the things which are more knowable and obvious to us and proceed towards those which are clearer and more knowable by nature; for the same things are not 'knowable relatively to us' and 'knowable' without qualification. So in the present inquiry we must follow this method and advance from what is more obscure by nature, but clearer to us, towards what is more clear and more knowable by nature.

Now what is to us plain and obvious at first is rather confused masses, the elements and principles of which become known to us later by analysis. Thus we must advance from generalities to particulars; for it is a whole that is best known to sense-perception, and a generality is a kind of whole, comprehending many things within it, like parts. Much the same thing happens in the relation of the name to the formula. A name, e.g. 'round', means vaguely a sort of whole: its definition analyses this into its particular senses. Similarly a child begins by calling all men 'father', and all women 'mother', but later on distinguishes each of them.

“When the princes in Israel take the lead,

 “When the princes in Israel take the lead,

    when the people willingly offer themselves—
    praise the Lord!

“Hear this, you kings! Listen, you rulers!
    I, even I, will sing to[a] the Lord;
    I will praise the Lord, the God of Israel, in song.

“When you, Lord, went out from Seir,
    when you marched from the land of Edom,
the earth shook, the heavens poured,
    the clouds poured down water.
The mountains quaked before the Lord, the One of Sinai,
    before the Lord, the God of Israel.

“In the days of Shamgar son of Anath,
    in the days of Jael, the highways were abandoned;
    travelers took to winding paths.
Villagers in Israel would not fight;
    they held back until I, Deborah, arose,
    until I arose, a mother in Israel.
God chose new leaders
    when war came to the city gates,
but not a shield or spear was seen
    among forty thousand in Israel.
My heart is with Israel’s princes,
    with the willing volunteers among the people.
    Praise the Lord!

10 “You who ride on white donkeys,
    sitting on your saddle blankets,
    and you who walk along the road,
consider 11 the voice of the singers[b] at the watering places.
    They recite the victories of the Lord,
    the victories of his villagers in Israel.
