Urchatz

Wash hands without reciting the blessing.

Washing hands, Venice, 1609

Commentary:

Urchatz

We wash our hands with a washing cup, without a
blessing, before dipping the karpas. This is to symbolize

what they used to do in the days of the Temple. It is also
to stimulate questions. Why? In some families, everyone

washes their hands and says a blessing when bread is

eaten. Now, we are washing hands, but not eating bread
(matza!), or making a blessing! And if you aren't familiar

with washing hands before eating bread, you might just
want to know what's going on.
