The Fixing of Generations

On Seder night, we don’t just tell the story of leaving Egypt. We repair what Egypt broke.

Drawing from a powerful ma’amar of Rav Avraham Tzvi Kluger, this shiur reveals how the four cups of wine are  part of a spiritual tikun that reaches back to the earliest cracks in humanity. From the generation of the flood to the sins of Cham, the raven, and the dog, something broke in how we saw ourselves. Pesach night gives us a chance to fix it.

Rav Shlomo Katz walks us through this multi-generational healing, showing how the act of drinking on this night reminds us of who we became and who we’re still becoming. It’s not about looking back with guilt. It’s about remembering we have the tools to move forward, not just for ourselves, but for the entire chain of generations that came before us.
