1. The Cup of Kiddish (Setting Apart) [Fill the first cup.]

Leader: Baruch atah YaHuWaH Eloheinu Melech HaOlam boreh pree

hagafen.

Together: Blessed are You YaHuWaH our Mighty One, Sovereign of the

Universe, Creator of the fruit of the vine.

Leader: You have set us apart and exalted us with Your

commandments.

Together: In love You have given us days of joy and seasons of

gladness. Even this Feast of Unleavened Bread, a memorial of my

departure from Mitsraim (Egypt).

Leader: You have chosen us for your service and made us sharers in

the blessings of your set apart festivals.

Together: Praised be You Oh YaHuWaH, who set your children and this

festival season apart.

[All drink the first cup.]

Leader: We have before us this Seder Plate. On it have been placed

the main symbols of this celebration.

Participant: First is the Karpas (parsley), the green vegetable, used to

remind us that Passover comes in the Spring. The green represents

new life.

Leader: We will each take some parsely, dip it into the salt water and

say the blessing together. We dip it into the salt water to remind us

that a life without redemption is a life immersed in tears.

[Each person take some parsley and dip it into the salt water.]


Universe, Creator of the fruit of the earth. [All eat the greens]

Participant: Next we have the Matzah Tash with three Matzos in it. As

believers in Yshua, we believe this could represent the Triune

Elohim (Mighty One)The Father, the Son, and the Ruach

HaQodesh.

Note: Our view is that the Matzah Tash could represent the Oneness

(echad) of Elohim. There are 3 matzos in the Matzah Tash.

(Creator-Messiah-Spirit). We are told by the rabbis that the Matzos

must be striped and pierced to be useable for Passover. They

cannot satisfactorily explain why the middle Matzoh is taken out,

broken, hidden (buried) returned, and each person must partake of

a piece of the Matzah when the Cup of Redemption is taken.

Yeshayahu (aka Isaiah) 53 says the Messiah would be beaten

(striped) and (Zecharyah 12) pierced for our sins. We believe the

middle Matzah represents Messiah (Yahushua). That He returned

(resurrected), and that each must take Him or reject Him for


4/10

personal salvation.

Together: Hear Oh Yisrael, YaHuWaH is our Mighty One, YaHuWaH is

One. (DeBarim, aka Deuteronomy 4:6)

Participant: This next symbol is the roasted shank bone which reminds

us of the Paschal Lamb, Whose blood caused the Angel of Death to

pass over the homes of our ancestors (Shemot, aka Exodus, 12:13) .

Together: Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain to receive power, and

riches, and wisdom, and honor, and esteem, and blessing. (Rev.

5:12) The Lamb of Elohim, Whose Blood provides for my personal

Passover from the Angel of Death.

The Afikomen (breaking of the middle Matzah)

Leader: [breaks the middle Matzah from the Matzah Tash into 2 parts.

One part is laid on top of the Matzah Tash. The other part becomes

the Afikomen and is wrapped in a linen cloth; it is then buried away

until later.)

Together: (concerning the 2nd part of the Matzah) Behold the Matzah,

the bread of affliction our fathers ate in the desert. Let all who are

hungry come and eat thereof; and all who are in need come and

celebrate the Passover.

Participant: Next we have the Moror /more-or/, the bitter herbs, which

reminds us of the bitterness of slavery, which our ancestors were

compelled to endure.

Together: Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from

my sin. For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before

me. Without your salvation my sin would be a bitter end.

Participant: We have Charoset /har o set/ made to resemble mortar,

used at this time to remind us of the mortar that our ancestors used

to make bricks while slaves in Egypt.

Together: It is sweet to remind us that the most bitter of labor is

sweetened by the promise of redemption.

2. The Cup of Deliverance [Fill the second cup.]

The 4 Questions

Mah nishtanah hallailah hazzeh mikkot hallaylot?

Why is this night different from all other nights?

1.Shebbchol halloylot anu ochlin chametz umatzah hallailah hazzeh

kullo matzah.

Other nights we may eat either leavened bread or unleavened

bread: this night only unleavened bread.

1.Shebbchol halloylot anu ochlin shar yrakot: hallailah hazzeh

maror.

Other nights we may eat all kinds of herbs, this night only bitter

herbs.

2.Shebbchol halloylot anu matbeelin afeelu pa-am echat: hallailah

hazzeh shtay famim.

Other nights we do not dip herbs even once, this night do we dip

herbs twice.

3.Shebbchol halloylot anu ochlin bayn yoshvin uvayn msubin:

hallailah hazzeh kulanu msubin.

Other nights we eat or drink either sitting or leaning, this night do

we

all lean.

[For the sake of brevity, we will dispense with the story of the 4 sons

expressing 4 attitudes toward Pesach]

Leader: We shall now answer the four basic questions asked about

Passover, which you have asked.

Together: Once we were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt, and YaHuWaH in

His goodness and mercy, brought us forth out of Egypt with a

mighty hand and outstretched arm, with great terror, and with signs


6/10

and wonders. Therefore we gather year after year to retell this

ancient story. For though it is ancient, it continues today in spirit as

it proclaims mans need for redemption.

Together: The first question asked regards the use of Matzah. We eat

these unleavened cakes to remind us that our ancestors were

redeemed so swiftly that the yeast did not have time to cause the

dough to raise. So the bread was flat when baked in the baked in

the desert. (Many times in the Scriptures yeast or leaven is used to

represent sin. Yet, being redeemed, there is no sin found in us).

Participant: We partake of the Moror on this night to remind us of how

bitter is the lot of one caught up in slavery to sin.

Together: We dip twice in this service, greens into salt water and

bitter herbs into Charoset. The greens to remind us that a life

without redemption is a life immersed in tears, and Moror into

Charoset to remind us that even slavery is sweetened with the

promise of redemption.

Together: The fourth question is, why do we recline when eating on

this night? In ancient times only the free person could eat in a

reclining position. Slaves were to eat standing. On Passover, we

are Redeemed. YaHuWaH has provided our freedom through His

Paschal Lamb.

The Story of the Exodus

Leader: Our fathers went down into Mitsraim with only 70 persons

(Debarim 10:22) YaHuWaH gave them many strong boys and girls

and they became a great nation. (Debarim 26:5)

Together: Then the Mitsrites feared us because of our numbers and

over-powered us. They made us slaves in their land. (Debarim

26:6)

Leader: Our people, the nation of Yisrael groaned under the

oppression. Their cries and prayers went up to YaHuWaH. (Shemot

2:23)


7/10

Together: Then we cried out to YaHuWaH, Mighty One of our fathers,

and YaHuWaH heard our voice and looked on our affliction and our

labor and our oppression. (Debarim 26:7)

Leader: Yah heard their groaning and Yah remembered His covenant

with Abraham, with Yits-hak, and with Yaaqob. (Shemoth 2:24)

YaH saw the condition of His children and Yah cared.

Together: Yah sent 10 terrible plagues as a sign10 chances for the

Mitsrites to obey Yah and set our people free.

Leader: the 10th plague would be the death of the first born person in

each family. Yah in His mercy provided protection for thos who

trusted Him. The people were to take a spotless, white, male lamb

and hand feed it four days. Then the lamb was to be killed. The

blood was to be put on the top of the front of each house, and on

both side posts of the door. When the Angel of Death came to the

houses that night, death passed over the blood marked doors. (Is it

any surprise that the blood dripping from the doors that night

formed a cross).

[We read aloud the plagues and deposit a drop of wine onto a napkin

or saucer.]

Together: blood frogs gnats (lice) flies (scrub beetles) pestilence

(diseased livestalk) boils hail locusts (grass hoppers) darkness

slaying of the first born

[Set cups down.]

Leader: A full cup of wine represents full joy. Though we are happy

that we have been redeemed, our joy is diminished because our

brothers the Mitsrites had to suffer for not listening to Yah.

Therefore we have removed some of the wine from our cups to

show our sorrow because those around us suffer.

Together: We praise the Mighty One of Abraham, Yits-hak, and

Yaaqob who kept His faith with His people Yisrael. YaHuWaHs

promise of redemption in ancient days sustains me now as I know


8/10

that His promise remains forever true.

[For the sake of brevity, we will dispense with singing Dayenu]

Leader: With this 2nd cup, we recall the second promise of redemption.

As it is written, I will deliver you from their bondage..no

temptation will confront you , but that YaHuWaH will provide a way

out.

[All drink the 2nd cup and sing a song. Then the all hold up a piece of

Matzah]

Together: Blessed are You, YaHuWaH our Mighty One, Sovereign of

the Universe, Who brings forth bread from the earth.

[All eat the Matzah, then put some horse raddish with Charoset on a

piece of Matzah and hold it up]

Leader: We shall now partake of the bitter herb, combined with

Charoset. Thus, we remember how bitter is slavery, yet the most

bitter of labors is sweetened by the promises of redemption. [All

take the Moror (horse radish) and Charoset. Then all take only the

Matzah and bitter herb]

Together: Blessed are You, YaHuWaH our Mighty One, Sovereign of the

Universe, Who sets our lives apart by your commandments, Who

has commanded us to eat the bitter herb.

(All partake of the Moror.)

[The meal is now served. Then, after the meal]

[Fill the third cup. Psalm 126 can be recited here. Now the Afikomen

is found, returned to the leader and distributed. Each person must

eat from the Afikomen. Just as each person must come to Yahushua

HaMashiyach for his or her personal salvation.]

Leader: As it is written, After the meal, Yahushua took the bread and

broke it and said, [holding up the Matzah] This is my body, which is

broken for you, take and eat. [All eat the Afikomen] [Fill the third

cup. Psalm 126 can be recited here. Now the Afikomen is found,

returned to the leader and distributed. Each person must eat from


9/10

the Afikomen. Just as each person must come to Yahushua

HaMashiyach for his or her personal salvation.]

Leader: As it is written, After the meal, Yahushua took the bread and

broke it and said, [holding up the Matzo] This is my body, which is

broken for you, take and eat. [All eat the Afikomen]

3. The Cup of Redemption

Leader: [holding up the cup] As it is written, then Yahushua took the

cup and said, this us a Renewed Covenant in my blood. Take and

drink.

Together: I will lift up the cup of redemption and call upon the name of

YaHuWaH. Praise and thanksgiving to the Yah of Abraham, Yits-hak,

and Yaaqob Who has provided the Lamb for my redemption.

Hallelujah! Amen! [All drink the Cup of Redemption]

4. The Cup of Praise [Fill the fourth cup.]

Leader: Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of YaHuWaH, Praise the

Name of YaHuWaH. [Play Song ]


Universe, Creator of the fruit of the vine. [All drink the Cup of

Praise]

5. The Cup of Eliyahu [Fill the fifth cup.]

Leader: In the book of Malachi, we are told that the Prophet Eliyahu

will come as a forerunner to the Messiah. The people asked

Yahushua if Yahuchanan the Immersion Witness was Eliyahu.

Yahushua replied, If you accept it, he came in the power and spirit

of him. We set a place at the table in thankful remembrance of

when he was here to herald the freedom our Yahushua has given us

through His death on the cross and in thankfulness for His

resurrection from the dead which assures us of eternal life. We also

look forward to the time when Eliyahu will herald the 2nd Coming of

the Messiah. As the Emissary Shaul stated (ISR Version), For as

often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, You proclaim the


10/10

death of the Master until He comes. I Cor. 11:26 [Send the son out

to see if Eliyahu has come. The son returns to report that Eliyahu

has not come] Since Eliyahu as not come, the Messiah will not

come this year. We have completed the Pesach Seder according to

its law and custom.

As we have lived to celebrate it, so may we live to celebrate it again.

Pure One, Who dwells in His habitation, redress the countless

congregation. Speedily lead us of your stock, redeemed, to Tsion

(aka Zion) singing praise to you.

Together: Next year in Yahrushalayim!

Post Script: Although there are seven promises that YaHuWaH related

to Moshah in Shemoth 6:6-8, only five of them are represented in

the Pesach Seder by the first five cups. I have a work in progress

coming out soon entitled The Seven Tiys: 7 Hebrew Words That

Unfold The Pattern of The Grand Design. It goes into this 7 part

promise that YaHuWaH gave to Moshah, how it relates to a pattern

that underlies Scripture from Bereyshith (aka, Genesis) to

Revelation.
