V'hi She'amda - Timeless Haggadah Song Illusrated in Sand Drawing by Aharon Bernstein

The artist and painter Aharon Z. Bernstein paints scenes in sand to accompany a music video of Yonatan Razel's song V'hi Sheamda.  

The sand drawings illustrate the way that God saves us from our enemies, from the evil pharaoh through Haman, Greeks, Romans, Inquisition, the Holocaust, to our present day.  

And this is that (promise)
which sustained our fathers and us.

That it is not one (enemy) alone
that stood up against us to destroy us.

But that in each generation there are those
standing up against us to destroy us.

But the Holy One Blessed Be He
saves us from their hand.
 

We will be celebrating the first days of Pesach with family and friends at home and in the synagogue, so we will not be posting tomorrow and Wednesday. We'll be back on Thursday with more Passover content.

Enjoy, and have a happy and kosher Pesach!
