The Seder plate typically contains six items, each with symbolic significance:

  1. Maror (bitter herbs) - represents the bitterness of slavery in Egypt.
  2. Charoset - a sweet mixture of fruits and nuts symbolizing the mortar used by the Israelites in their forced labor.
  3. Karpas (parsley) - signifies spring and rebirth; it is often dipped in salt water to represent tears.
  4. Z'roa (shank bone) - symbolizes the Passover sacrifice, a reminder of the lamb's blood that marked the doors of the Israelites.
  5. Beitzah (roasted egg) - represents the festival sacrifice and the cycle of life and death.
  6. Chazeret (additional bitter herb) - often romaine lettuce, reinforcing the theme of bitterness in the story of oppression.
