I'm working on a short piece for a Haggadah and part of it hinges on finding something unique about Rachtzah, the ritual washing before the Motzi during the seder.
If anyone has a tradition to do the waching at the table, that's not unique as it would have been done that way at Urchatz. And we wash before bread the whole year round. So what can be said to be different, special or unique about this particular washing in its mode, logic or execution?
(just to give a context, Kadeish is something we do year round, but we don't lean when we drink during the rest of the year; the same is true of motzi -- we make it but we don't lean when we eat it).
Ideas appreciated!
