Prayer is returning to its Roots PART III

In Mitzrayim, after many years under the heavy yoke of the back-breaking decrees of Pharaoh, the Children of Hashem, the Israelites, "groaned" and "cried out" –

"And the L‑rd heard our voice" as it said: "And G‑d heard their groaning, and G‑d remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob."

From the Haggadah:


Are we now not under the oppressive government with its decrees (constrictions) against its citizens:

"Supreme Court orders State to explain: Why not enlist yeshiva students?…Supreme Court justices demand State explain why yeshiva students should not enlist, freezes reduction of military service for haredim."  


Is there a difference between Pharaoh and the Israeli Memshelah? This could turn out to be "oppressive ruler like in the days of Haman" and his anti-semitic decrees.

What will be next?

Did you vote for the same old same? If so, that’s what you’ll get!
Only maybe worse!
