# One doesn’t have to lean when eating the Maror<Ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 475:1 </ref> but if one wants to one may do so. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 475:14. Magen Avraham (475:6) writes that if one did indeed lean while eating maror one nonetheless fulfills his obligation. Rabbi Shmuel Loew in Machatzit Ha-Shekel finds support for this from the fact that Hillel must have leaned while eating maror since he ate it together with the matzah. However, Mishna Brurah (475:14) writes that if one so desires one may lean while eating the maror. Rabbi Hezekiah Silva in Pri Chadash (475:1) defends this approach by arguing that leaning is not a contradiction to slavery, for after all even the matzah and the first two cups of wine serve as partial symbols of slavery and are nevertheless leaned for. </ref> | # One doesn’t have to lean when eating the Maror<Ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 475:1 </ref> but if one wants to one may do so. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 475:14.
