This is the most incredible year in the history of the world. 
And you are there.

Well, not quite. But as you read the "diary" of Amiasaf, a Jewish boy living in Mitzrayim, you will feel like you're with him, and with all Bnei Yisrael.

You'll cry with Amiasaf, as his brutal Egyptian master torments him. You'll laugh, as Amiasaf's younger brother is forced by Egyptian thugs to drink the water of the Nile that has turned into blood, and instead the little Jewish slave gets cool, clear water. You'll travel to a yeshivah of Levi'im in Goshen and walk with lions and bears during the plague of arov. Most important of all, you'll learn the secret of how Bnei Yisrael held on to their belief that they would be freed from slavery, no matter how dark things looked.

You've heard the story of Yetziyas Mitzrayim so many times. Now you can really feel it!

Yes, dear diary. Can you believe it? We’re going to be free! After centuries of slavery ... the dream that we have dreamed for generations is finally coming to pass. We have merited, finally, to emerge from the darkness to the light — from slavery to freedom!

So begins nine-year-old Amiasaf ‘s diary, as he continues to bring the story of Yetziyas Mitzrayim to life.

Our children will be there when the Jews bravely tie up the lambs for Korban Pesach. They will accompany the former slaves as they retrieve the Egyptians’ treasures during Makkas Choshech, watch the idols of Mitzrayim collapse into nothingness, eat of the Korban Pesach at the world’s very first Seder. We will travel with Amiasaf and his family to the banks of the Yam Suf, facing its waters in front of them and the fearful Egyptian army at their backs, awaiting Hashem’s miracles.

Based on the Torah narrative and many midrashim, Leaving Mitzrayim will enhance our children’s Seder, and their appreciation for one of the most important events in our history. Learn More

How does matzah heal the neshamah?

How does Shir HaShirim channel the energy of spring?

What is it about Pesach Sheini that includes even the tamei Jew?

How does Lag B’Omer include even the lowest Jew?

What is the connection between Yirmiyahu HaNavi and Shlomo HaMelech?

Amos Hanavi (8:11) predicted that preceding Mashiach’s arrival there would be a famine — not for bread and water, but for the word of Hashem. This explains why more and more people find themselves needing the nourishment of the deeper layers of Torah.

Festivals of Faith, presenting the Torah of Rav Moshe Wolfson, shlita, Rav of Beis Midrash Emunas Yisrael and Mashgiach Ruchani of Mesivta Torah Vodaath, attempts to satisfy this hunger and quench this thirst.

Written in a light and engaging style, the Festivals of Faith series draws from the mystical layers of Torah as transmitted through the channels of Chassidus.

Sprinkled throughout are astounding gematrios, marvelous sidebars, and next-level appendices — and each chapter ends with a practical takeaway.

This series opens up the rich resources of the Jewish year, enabling our emunah to blossom with the Festivals of Faith. Learn More
