"Whoever expands on the narrative of the exodus from Egypt, this person (harei zeh) is to be praised" (Haggada). The Hebrew word zeh ("this") indicates a state of holiness, as in the phrase, "Here, this (zeh) is our G-d" (p. 336). Whoever expands on the narrative of the exodus, his zeh, his element of holiness, is enriched.
