Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:
 Yud Alef Nissan 

Pesach 

• Do we say Gut Yom Tov today? 
• How do we honor the Rebbe’s birthday? 
• What is the single most important thing each of us should do on this special day? 
• How did the Rebbe celebrate his birthday? 
• What were the events that led to the things done for Yud Alef Nissan 5742 – eighty years? 
• What is the significance of the number eleven? 
• Is it significant that “peace in Israel” are the last words in Tehillim chapter 125, which we begin reciting today? 
• Do some people receive answers from the Rebbe more than others?  

Miracles and Iran Seder 

• What is the relevance of the war in Iran to Pesach? 
• What's the underlying message of Pesach? 
• What does it truly mean to be free?  
• How is the energy of Nissan and Pesach different than that of ani l’dodi v’dodi li of Elul and Tishrei? 
• Do I have to observe the holiday if I am experiencing financial difficulties, which cause stress and anxiety, antithetical to the theme of Passover? 
• Why is Passover celebrated on the day the exodus happened, unlike Purim and Chanukah which are celebrated the day after the miracles happened?   
• Why do we celebrate it every year? 
• Why does Passover have three names? 
• What can we learn from the great miracle of Shabbos HaGadol and the other miracles of the time about today’s miracles? 
• How do we reconcile Chizkiyahu being criticized for not praising G-d's for His miracles with the ruling that one should not say Hallel every day – how do we find the right balance of acknowledging miracles in our lives? 
• What can each of us do physically and spiritually to help protect all the innocent people and bring victory in the war against Iran? 
• As an American who moved to Israel I am bemused by people questioning the safety of living here. 
• How do we resolve a major conflict between husband and wife of how extreme we should be with our Pesach cleaning? 

• Can you please share some memories of the Rebbe visiting different public Seders in Crown Heights? Why did he do so? 
• Why did the Rebbe ask an artist to illustrate a special edition of the Haggadah for children?
