However, I feel uncomfortable doing that; as long as my home is in the Diaspora, I act in Israel as I do in New York City, praying the holiday prayers and observing the holiday restrictions for two days instead of one. This means finding a second-day <em>chag <\/em>minyan while most men in my friends\u2019 <em>Chareidi<\/em> neighborhood are at a Chol Hamoed worship service on the second day of Pesach and Sukkot or, in the case of Shavuot, a weekday minyan. It also means additional <em>yom tov<\/em> meals.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>minyanim<\/em> are easy to locate. Within a mile\u2019s walk, in a neighborhood that is home to several <em>yeshivot<\/em> serving students from overseas, and countless visitors like me from abroad, a choice of second-day <em>minyanim<\/em> are available. I usually walk to one up the hill from my adopted family, while the streets are filled with Chassidic and <em>Yeshivish <\/em>folks shopping and driving cars, activities that someone keeping <em>yom tov<\/em> obviously would not do. On the way to shul I\u2019m always reminded that I\u2019m a guest in Eretz Israel, not yet a resident of the Jewish homeland. I\u2019m further reminded when my hosts, inevitably forgetting that I\u2019m still in <em>yom tov<\/em> mode, ask me to turn on a light or go shopping for them or do something else that one does not do on<em> chag<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Then there are the meals. My hosts are always glad, on Sukkot, to set me up in their sukkah for a <em>seudah<\/em> while they go about their non-<em>yom tov<\/em> activities. One year, Meyer Birnbaum<em> z\u201dl,<\/em> of Lieutenant Birnbaum fame, the one-time member of the US Army who wrote a popular book about his experiences as a <em>frum<\/em> officer in uniform, graciously invited me to join him in his sukkah, a ten-minute walk from where I was staying, on what for me was the second night of the holiday. It wasn\u2019t <em>yom tov<\/em> for him, but for a few hours he sat with me and regaled me with tales of the army and life afterwards in Israel. It\u2019s a memory I\u2019ll always treasure. Another year, on Pesach, a student from my <em>rosh yeshivah<\/em> host\u2019s <em>kollel<\/em> invited me to a second Seder he and his wife were making for one of their parents from Europe who was spending Pesach with them. One year I had nowhere else to go, so I decided to make my own Seder at my friends\u2019 apartment.<\/p>\n<p>When I came back from shul that night, my hostess Shulamis, a native of Phoenix who came to Israel for seminary and never went back full-time to the States, had set up a small table with a tablecloth and Kiddush cup as well as two covered matzahs and the other accoutrements of the festive meal. A wonderful cook, she\u2019d prepared a scrumptious meal for me. At the larger main table, the rest of the growing family ate their Chol Hamoed meal and went about their Chol Hamoed duties, making phone calls and plans for the rest of the holiday. I sat down at my table, opened my Haggadah, and prepared to make my own, truncated solo Seder.<\/p>\n<p>Then Chaim came over.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s one of the family\u2019s dozen children. He was about nine years old then, a student in a <em>Chareidi<\/em> school. I\u2019d known him most of his young life. \u201cI don\u2019t want you to make a Seder by yourself, Steve,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ll eat with you.\u201d His parents had not pushed him to sit with me; he simply had learned in school to be a mensch. Chaim, in his <em>yom tov<\/em> suit, pulled up a chair next to me, opened his own Haggadah\u2014probably a Hebrew-only one, unlike mine in Hebrew and English\u2014and we started reading. Over the next few hours\u2014I didn\u2019t have to rush, since I had someone to share the Seder with me\u2014he told me what he had learned in school about the night\u2019s readings and rituals, he told me stories about the <em>Sedarim<\/em> he had been a part of in his Jerusalem home, he helped me understand parts of the Haggadah that he as a kid understood better than I as an adult did. And he helped me feel totally at home.<\/p>\n<p>His insights may not have been as profound as those of the adults who usually surround me at a Seder table, but his enthusiasm and his desire to make sure that his honorary uncle didn\u2019t sit by himself, provided a stronger lesson. A lesson that with the right company, one Seder does not have to be like all other <em>Sedarim<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em>A frequent contributor to Jewish Action, Steve Lipman is a staff writer for the Jewish Week in New York.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWhy is this night not like all other nights?\u201d we ask ourselves at the Seder each year.
