Rabbi Cosgrove: A Night of Questions (April 12, 2025)


What makes the seder different from all other nights? Rabbi Cosgrove teaches that above all, it’s the questions that frame the entire evening. He urges us to listen to everyone’s questions with open hearts and minds and to allow that every question can have more than one right answer.

Featured Song

Magen Avot (Shield of Our Ancestors)

The Magen Avot prayer speaks of awe, rest, Shabbat, peace, and remembering creation. Seeking a summary of keeping Shabbat, it’s hard to think of a better one! As we keep Shabbat in the midst of Passover, this classic style of Hazzanut singing evokes the world of Jewish music and tradition like no other, and we hope it helps you look back as we approach the Yizkor service and Yom HaShoah.
