Shouts & Murmurs: New Questions for Passover Seder
At every Passover Seder, the youngest child asks the Four Questions, including “Why is this night different from all other nights?” and “On all other nights, we eat either sitting or reclining, but why on this night do we recline?” In order to make this year’s Seders more user-friendly, the United Council on Reform Judaism has suggested adding the following bonus questions:
1. Is the fact that Gwyneth Paltrow is only half Jewish really a blessing in disguise?
2. Was there anyone in the Talmud named Madison?
3. If Lucky Charms were a Jewish cereal, would the box have a picture of Rahm Emanuel?
4. In a Jewish family, isn’t “tiger mother” just another term for “amateur”?
- Above, the first four new questions that Paul Rudnick provides in this week’s Shouts & Murmurs. Add these, and an additional 15, to the existing four questions at your Passover seder this year. For the rest: http://nyr.kr/H6YjbR
