Tomorrow night, Jews around the Bay Area will observe the eve of Passover in an unprecedented way: Telling the story of the Exodus from Egypt and eating the symbolic foods of the seder via Zoom or Google Hangouts.

Yes, it will be challenging to feel connection over a laptop instead of around the table. But families, educators and religious leaders are facing the challenge with intention, finding meaning by rewriting haggadot, the text used during Passover, to reflect COVID-19 and drawing parallels between the Israelites’ captivity and our own quarantine.
