The “Four questions” is a text that features prominently at the Passover seder, opening up the portion of the evening in which the exodus story is discussed. Also referred to as “Ma Nishtanah” (“why is this night different”) after its two opening words, the questions highlight the differences between the seder night and all other nights. The text’s origins are in the Mishnah, with variant versions in different rabbinic texts and haggadahs. It is commonly recited or sung by the youngest person at the seder.
