**Ceremony & Celebration Family Edition, Maggid Books, 2023:**
*Nirtza* means “parting,” and with this passage we reach the concluding section. We pray that next year we may be able to celebrate Pesaḥ in a rebuilt Temple according to the original biblical rituals (which we can no longer fulfil). This passage is taken from a liturgical poem (*kerova*) composed by Rabbi Joseph Tov Elem in the eleventh century CE. Originally, it was said in the synagogue on *Shabbat HaGadol*, the Shabbat preceding Pesaḥ, to conclude a detailing of the laws of Pesaḥ. It was transferred to the Haggada in the fourteenth century.
