It is Passover, and my friend Jaqui from New Zealand reminded of it. Because she lives in NZ, she is ahead of the curve in all my opportunities to spread the news of a holiday.Jaqui wrote to me about the song "Dayenu," which in all its verses goes through all the movement of the Hebrew people through the wilderness pilgrimage: being brought out of Egypt; judgment upon Egyptians; executed judgment upon the gods of Egypt; God split the Red Sea; walked the people through on dry land; provided for the needs of the Israelites; were given Shabbat; taken to Mt. Sinai; given Torah; given a land of milk and honey. It is a song of the Israelites' pilgrimage!
Da-da-ye-nu!
Bien camino!
Pilgrim peace,
Brett
