It’s always there, sitting quietly on the Seder plate. A simple egg. But what’s it really doing there?

Rav Shlomo Katz delves deeply into the soul of this mysterious symbol, following Rav Kluger's teachings. Why is the egg a sign of mourning, yet placed front and center on the night of redemption? Why does Tisha B’Av always fall out on the same night of the week as the Seder? What’s the deeper connection between exile and geulah, between heartbreak and hope?

The egg whispers a hidden truth: Hashem’s love was never severed, even as we were sent into galut. On this night of freedom, the egg invites us to remember that every shattered moment holds the potential for reunion, for rebirth, and for love that lasts forever.
