Pesach is the feast of freedom. This year we share with you a prayer proposed by the Shalom Bayit Program in Atlanta, Georgia to introduce the issue of gender violence in our festivities.
_________
By including this prayer, we begin to recognize the pain that many women and children feel; By saying it out loud, we begin to eliminate the myth that it doesn't exist; and by taking it to our hearts, we begin our individual journeys toward ending violence.
“Every year at this time, it is our responsibility to look at ourselves as if we really came out of Egypt.
The fight for freedom continues and in all ages there are new freedoms to win. Tonight our hearts turn to those who suffer the pain of living in a house where peace has been shattered. Let us confront this violence and unite in the effort to liberate those who suffer it.
There are boys and girls who are sexually, physically and / or verbally abused; there are women who live in terror of their partners; there are elderly people who are ignored or imprisoned in their own homes. Tonight, when we celebrate the miracle of liberation, it is up to us to understand the meaning of these slavery; listen to their cries and help them in their fight for freedom.
Some of us at this table are survivors; Others of us know survivors and victims of violence. We must come to know their silence and sadness; their loneliness and the shame they feel; bitterness and the longing for liberation.
As we celebrate the memory of that first Exodus that unfolded in the heart of Egypt, let us actively and with clear intention allow ourselves to chart a new path, so that those women who are tied to the chains of domestic violence can free themselves and come to know in their lives the taste of liberation and the experience of peace.
