Last night I was privileged to share in a Passover Seder with dear friends. We read from the Reformed Haggadah where God chastised the angels for their shouts of joy at the Egyptians' drowning. Sometimes freedom comes at the end of so great a nightmare and at so great a cost that the shouting of anything - including the shout of victory - rings falsely. Only silence is true. May we never forget.
