Two Ways to Remember the Exodus

Sep 29, 2025

2:19

In this talk, Rabbi Yaakov Rahimi explains the difference between remembering the Exodus and speaking about it in detail. According to the Zohar, there are two mitzvot: to recall the leaving of Egypt day and night, and to retell the story with words, with conversation, and with detail. Rabbi Rahimi compares it to how we listen in relationships—just fulfilling the duty or truly engaging. He also shares why preparation matters for the Seder, and why the mitzvah is meant to be lived as an ongoing story, not just a passing memory.Website: BacktoSinai.com and TorahAnytime.comInstagram: @backtosinaiTikTok: @backtosinai Hosted on Acast.
