On the other hand it is bread of revelation. It was the product of the rush of our ancestors to leave Egypt. The Matzah absorbed this tremendous revelation and it is this Matzah that we are commanded to eat. Through eating we are reliving the suffering, and then the highest elevation, all in one fell swoop. We eat the bitter herb.
Revelations are nice.
They are, however, short lived. To truly internalize the message of Passover on the level of action, we must once again humble ourself. With remembering the pain of our forebearers in Egypt, we also recall our own emotional and spiritual pain. We open our heart to the Divine revelation of the evening. We are finally at the point where we can combine the anguish and the revelation.
