Quote:We don't have a Seder plate, but we go through what each item meant, and we do remove all leaven, and recite what Christ said to do in remembrance of him..

Which items would that be?

a. a bitter herb (the bitterness of slavery)
b. chopped nuts w/brown sugar and cinnamon (the mortar)
c. parsley dipped in salt water (tears shed during slavery)
d. a roasted shank bone (temple sacrifice); Christ is our sacrifice
e. hardboiled egg (festival sacrifice)
f. a dish of salt water.

We don't make the plate, but go through the list of items that would be on the plate, recalling what they went through, and why each item is there.
