Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Maror ( O' * O u mA ror) also Marror, refers to the bitter herbs eaten at the Passover Seder in keeping with the Torah commandment with bitter herbs they shall eat it. (Exodus 12:8). The word derives from the Hebrew word mar ( u - bitter ). Freshly grated horseradish, romaine lettuce, and endive are the most common choices for maror. According to the Haggadah, the traditional text which is recited at the Seder and which defines the Seder's form and customs, the maror symbolizes the bitterness of slavery in Egypt. The following verse from the Torah underscores that symbolism: And they embittered (ve-yimareru * u ' * ) their lives with hard labor, with mortar and with bricks and with all manner of labor in the field; any labor that they made them do was with hard labor (Exodus 1:14).
