    Peres updated Yosef on his meetings with US President Barack Obama, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, and the upper echelons of the US administration. The two men also discussed various developments in the Middle East.

    Peres requested the assistance of all three rabbis in advancing peace and stability in the region and declared: “The rabbis have a significant and decisive part to play in the quest for peace. We must not allow the Israeli- Palestinian conflict to become the flag of hatred for Israel of the entire Arab world.”

    Peres added that this Pessah was different from others because this year the Egyptians themselves were attempting to exit the house of bondage.

    “This Passover is different than any other. This year the Egyptians themselves are struggling to be liberated from slavery,” said Peres and wished the Egyptian people to “quickly emerge out of the hunger, shame and deprivation they were in.”
