During this busy season, keep the complaints to yourself
P esach is also called Passover. “Pass over” as we know means to ignore something to skip it to move on. At this time of year this concept is especially important.
Husband to wife: “Look at this plate you just washed — it’s still got bits of cheese on it.”
Wife to husband: “You’re talking about bits of cheese on a plate that I — not you mind you but I — just washed after washing hundreds of plates peeling dozens of potatoes cooking tens of kugels to feed all your relatives because they can never make the Seder themselves and certainly not invite us and you have the nerve to talk about cheese on a plate?”
See what we mean? It would have been better if he had just let the cheese issue pass over for now.
