The focus of the Seder should be the father telling the story of Yetzias Mitzrayim, with a focus on Ikrei Ha’emuna. This is the bedrock of our Emuna.

Both bekius and iyun – you need to cover the whole story, and focus on a few details and lessons to learn.

Who decided this? The story of Yetzias Mitzrayim – yup. Sippur Yetzias Mitzrayim. But who decided that Pesach is a time to ‘focus on Ikrei Ha’emuna’? Where does that fit into the Mitzvah of Ve’Higadto La’vincho Bayom Hahu?

(Although parts of the Haggadah are sorely about Bitachon – i.e. Vehi Sheamda…)
