Mitzvah of Sippur Yetsiat Mitzrayim

  1. There is a positive mitzvah from the Torah to explain the story of the Jewish people leaving Egypt (Sippur Yetziat Mitzrayim) on Pesach night. [1] Some suggest that if no one asks any questions, there is only a rabbinic mitzvah to discuss the story of Yitziyat Mitzrayim. [2]
  2. One should have intent before beginning Maggid that is fulfilling the mitzvah of Sippur Yetsiat Mitzrayim. [3]
  3. One should only start the Haggadah after Tzet HaKochavim. [4]
  4. The mitzvah of Sippur Yetsiat Mitrayim is to explain to one’s sons and daughter according to their understanding. [5]
  5. The entire Haggadah from Ha Lachma Anaya can be said in the common language so that everyone understands. [6]
  6. One’s son should ask the questions in order to explain Yetsiat Mitzrayim. If one doesn’t have a son, one’s daughter should ask. [7] If one doesn’t have children, one’s wife should ask. If two people are together, they should ask one another. If one is alone, one should ask oneself. Grandchildren are like children regarding this mitzvah. [8]
  7. Not everyone at the table must say over the story of Yetsiat Mitzrayim or read the entire Haggadah but rather it’s sufficient that one person at the table explains the story of Yetsiat Mitzrayim and reads the Haggadah while everyone else listens and pays attention. [9]
  8. Women are also obligated in Sippur Yetsiat Mitzrayim, yet they shouldn’t fulfill the obligation of men by reading it aloud and having men listen, nonetheless after the fact men have fulfilled the obligation. [10]
  9. Blind people are also obligated in reading the Haggadah. [11]
  10. Even if one doesn’t have Matzah and Maror should still say the Haggadah. [12]

Someone who has small children

  1. Someone who doesn’t have time and has to say Maggid in a big rush should say the paragraph of Avadim Hayinu עבדים היינו which fulfills the mitzvah Deoritta of Sippur Yetsiat Mitzrayim. [13]
  2. If one has little children who can’t stay up too late, one should go through the Haggadah quicker so that the children are able to participate in the other מצות of the night. [14]
  3. For a person who has small children and the essentials of the Haggadah to be said are Kiddish, Ha Lachma Anaya, Mah Nishtana, Avadim Hayinu, Metechila Ovdei Ovoda Zara, Baruch HaMakom, 4 sons, Arami Oved Avi, (Rabban Gamliel), the beginning of Hallel, Birkat HaMazon, and the end of Hallel.

Mah Nishtana

  1. One should remove the Kaarah from the table before Mah Nishtana to get the children to ask.[18] Some have the custom only to remove the broken piece of Matzah. Others have the custom to announce the removal of the Kaarah but not actual do so. [19]
  2. When the children ask why is the Kaareh being removed one should answer that this is to show that one is not to eat before fulfilling Sippur Yetsiat Mitzrayim. [20]
  3. Nowadays when it’s unclear from our actions of dipping the food and by leaning while eating that we are displaying actions of royalty, the after should answer the child’s recital of the Mah Nishtana with an explanation of such. [21]
  4. If the child said Mah Nishtana, some say that the one running the Seder doesn’t have to repeat the Mah Nishtana [22], while others suggest that one should do so. [23]
  5. Even if the child asks a question related to the seder the one running the Seder should still read the Mah Nishtana. [24]
  6. The second cup is poured after the Mah Nishtana to get the children to ask. [25]
  7. The captions underneath the pictures on the side of the Haggadah is permissible to read on Yom Tov. [26]

Vehi She'amda

  1. During Vehi She’amdah and Lefikakh, one should raise the cup of wine and cover the matzot. [28]

Ten Macot

The central part of the mitzvah, continues Rambam, is for a parent to tell his or her children the story

  27. ↑ Shulchan Aruch 473:7; the Gemara (Pesachim 115b) explains that the matzah is called lechem oni since it is bread that we speak about, onin alav, during the Seder. Accordingly, Maharil (cited by Bet Yosef 473:7) writes that we leave the matzah exposed for the recital of the Haggadah since it should be present as we speak about Yetziat Mitzrayim.
  28. ↑ Shulchan Arukh 473:7. The Tur (473:7) writes that the Ashkenazic minhag is to raise the cup of wine at Lefikakh so Hallel can be said over a cup of wine. The Shulchan Arukh (473:7) agrees. Shl”ah (Pesachim, ch. “Ner Mitzvah” n. 41) writes that one should raise the cup of wine while saying Vehi She’amdah because Vehi She’amdah is a praise to Hashem for saving us time and again. This is cited by Mishna Brurah (473:73). Rabbi Yaakov Landau in the Agur (cited by the Beit Yosef 473:7) writes that while the cup is raised, the matzot should be covered to not “embarrass” the matzah that it is being consumed only after the wine is drunk (See Mishna Brurah 271:41).

  32. ↑ Halichot Shlomo (pg 272 note 241), Chazon Ovadyah (pg 58). Rabbi Moshe Isserles in Darkhei Moshe (473:18) explains that the custom to remove a drop of wine for each of the makkot and its related phrases kabbalistically represents the vengeance Hashem took against Egypt. For this reason, he writes that one should use the pointer finger, etzbah, in accordance with the verse etzbah Elokim hiy (Shemot 8:15). The Shaar HaTziyun (473:81) writes that obviously if a person is fastidious and will be disgusted to drink the rest of the cup of wine, and will have to spill it out, one should simply pour from the cup for each makkah and not use his finger to minimize a waste of wine. Rav Ovadia Yosef (Chazon Ovadia, Pesach p. 152), however, cites the opinion of the Rabbi Chaim Benveniste in Pesach Me’ubin (n. 261) who writes that under all circumstances, one should pour out the remaining wine, for after all the makkot were said over this wine.
