The Talmud on the Pesach Seder, Lesson 3 (Daf/Page 108a-b) This Talmud class traces the roots of the four cups through a tangled vine of sacred Torah traditions. Discover why this grape-based alcoholic drink is such an important component of the Passover Seder for both men and woman alike, as we shed new light on the leadership role the women played in catalyzing the Exodus. See how these cups should be filled with both wine and freedom—and how it’s possible to sometimes experience one without the other!
