What are the positive (ta'asay) mitzvot for the Pesach Seder?

Question

I need a list for extra credit. Or a link would be good.
And I tried chabad.org.

Answer 1

Here's some I found - hope this helps!

- "Korban Pesach" - the Passover sacrifice must be made by each family. The slaugher was on the 14th of Nissan and was eaten on the 15th with maror and matzah. (Exodus 12:8). Modern day, this is replaced by the shankbone on the seder plate.

- Eat Matzah on the first night of Passover and only eat matzah during Passover - no leavened bread/chametz. (Exodus 12:18)

- Remove all chametz from the home. (Exodus 12:15)

- Refrain from eating chametz. (Exodus 13:3, Exodus 12:20, Deuteronomy 16:3)

- Eat maror (bitter herbs) with matzah and Passover sacrifice. (Exodus 12:8)

- Tell the story of the Passover Exodus.

- Drink 4 cups of wine during the seder. (Rabbinic obligation - not Torah.)

- Not "commandments" but still followed: Conservative & Orthodox Jews observe a Shabbat like holiday in the first & last days (two days in diaspora) where there is no work. Also, a seder is done on the first night in Israel, first and second night in diaspora.

Good Luck and Happy Almost Pesach!!

Answer 2

Some positive mitzvots are to recline when you eat matzaot and kiddush.And to tell the passover story.Also to have a seder

Answer 3

Another thing that was half mentioned was the afikoman that has to be eaten before midnight (the afikoman represents the pesach sacrifice that is not done today)

Answer 4

To eat the matzah is a positive mitzvah; to tell the story of the exodus to children is interpreted as a positive commandment (mitzvah).

Answer 5

Everything was already said and I agree with them BUT fhiding the afokoman and then finding it is one that was forgotten. [ Afokomen is the hidden matza)

Answer 6

That's eseh or aseh, not ta'asay.
