A thought about Passover this year.

In a world of six degrees of separation, my son's friend has a friend from childhood who is currently a hostage. The Israeli government has told the family that it is believed that this person is alive.
I will have a photo of this person and place it along with its own place setting at the seder table.
Maybe others here who celebrate Passover can also have an empty place setting in honor of the hostages who are spending Passover this year in captivity.

Next year in Jerusalem will take on a special meaning as we say it for them.

I am not religious or belong to any denomination but I am very concerned for humanity and the hate towards others. I know it exists but I don’t understand why
