Maimonides Minute Special: Avadim Hayinu – Would We Really Still Be Slaves Today?
10:38 pm
In the paragraph that begins Avadim Hayinu – We were slaves to Pharaoh – we assert that had G-d not taken us out of Egypt, we would be enslaved to Pharaoh to this day. But is that really likely, when most countries have freed their slaves, and Pharaoh himself is long gone? How can we better understand what this paragraph actually means?
