This morning we discuss a remarkable story concerning Nechama Leibowitz, one of the great Torah teachers of modern times, and the lesson she imparts to deflect frustration or irritation during the Passover Seder, during Yom Tov, and at any other time. We also discuss Rabbi Avraham Kook's novel translation of "Pesach," as God hovers and hugs each of us during the Seder and beyond.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.

Rabbi Whitman shares his thoughts and inspirations through online lectures and shiurim, which are available on:
