# Some explain that it's called [[Shabbat]] HaGadol because that was the [[Shabbat]] when a miracle occurred for the Jews in Egypt that the Egyptians didn't say anything when the Jews took sheep, which was the Egyptian god, in order to slaughter them for [[Pesach]]. < | |||

#As Am Yisrael left Mitzrayim on the 15th of Nissan (Thursday),<ref name=":0">Shabbat 87b</ref> the previous Shabbat would have been the 10th of Nissan, the same day Moshe asks K'lal Yisrael that "''they shall take every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for a house''." <ref>[https://www.aish.com/tp/i/moha/48942426.html#4 Aish.com] citing Shemot 12:3</ref> Tosfot <ref name=":0" /> explains that this action interested and angered the Egyptians, and so the firstborn pleaded to Pharaoh to free Am Yisrael, but he refused. And so, as a result, the firstborn attacked their fathers. The greatness is derived from the damage Hashem did to Egyptian society in this sense.<ref>[https://www.aish.com/tp/i/moha/48942426.html#5 Aish.com] citing Midrash Tehilim 136:6 and Ancient Tanchuma Bo 18</ref> | |||

#On [[Shabbat]] HaGadol, the minhag is to read the Haggadah from Avadim Hayinu until LeChaper Al Avonotanu. <ref>Rama 430:1 based on Ravyah 225 writes that the minhag is to read the Haggadah from Avadim Hayinu until LeChaper Al Avonotanu on [[Shabbat]] HaGadol. This is quoted by Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 107:3. However, Beiur Halacha s.v. BeMincha quotes the Gra (Maaseh Rav #173) who didn't have the minhag to read the Hagadah on [[Shabbat]]. </ref> | |||
