It is unclear what Hallel was being recited during the korban Pesach. Some say that it is what we call Hallel – the Hallel ha-Mitzri, which focuses on the exodus from Egypt (Ps113-118). Others say that Hallel ha-Gadol (Ps 136) was also included. Either way we examine the history of Hallel then and during the Shoah and COVID.
