The Vision of Freedom
The Hagadah instructs us to imagine ourselves as Jewish slaves in Egypt who experienced the miraculous Exodus. We are not expected to visualize the actual redemption because we do not have a conscious knowledge of the event. However, imagining the great Exodus, as best we can, brings the redemption to life -- and fills us with new inspiration and love of HaShem.
Lesson: The technique of visualizing that we personally were redeemed from Egypt helps us experience the joy of our own personal redemption.
App: Envision yourself as a slave in Egypt and see yourself cry out to HaShem. Imagine the holy Shechinah rescuing you and surrounding you with miracles, freedom, light, and joy.
