Who Knows Four?: Inclusion and Exclusion in the Passover Seder

Thu, March 18, 2021 at 3:00 pm4:30 pm

Why is the number four so important in the Passover Seder? Join Rabbi Bill Plevan to study the passage of the four children from the Haggadah and similar Rabbinic texts. Are these texts inclusive or exclusive? What can we learn from these texts about the tension between maintaining standards of behavior (moral or religious) and achieving inclusive community?
Rabbi Bill Plevan holds rabbinic ordination from the Jewish Theological Seminary and a doctorate in Religion from Princeton University where he wrote his dissertation on the German-Jewish philosopher Martin Buber. He has taught Jewish philosophy, theology and ethics at the Jewish Theological Seminary, Gratz College, Hebrew Union College, and in a variety of adult educational settings.
