As for the One Who Does Not Know How To Ask, you should open the
discussion for him, as it is written: "And you shall explain to your child on that day,
'It is because of what God did for me when I came out of Egypt." (Exodus 13:8).
Do you see yourself in any of these children?
At times we all approach different situations like each of these children.
How do we relate to each of them?
Our story starts in ancient times with Abraham, the first person to believe
in one God. The idea of one God, invisible and all-powerful, inspired him
to leave his family and begin a new people in Canaan, the land that would
one day bear his grandson Jacob’s adopted name, Israel.
God had made a promise to Abraham that his family would become
a great nation, but this promise came with a frightening vision of the
troubles along the way: “Your descendants will dwell for a time in a land
that is not their own, and they will be enslaved and afflicted for four
hundred years; however, I will punish the nation that enslaved them,
and afterwards they shall leave with great wealth.”
