The Four Sons: The Oneness of HaShem
Reb Zvi Elimelekh of Dinov (a grand nephew of Reb Elimelech of Liszensk) custom was to visit someone’s house on the first night of Passover in order to see how he was making the Seder. So he stopped in front of one Yiddele’s house and listened to the Yiddele read from the Haggadah. He was chanting, “In regards to four sons the Torah speaks: One who is wise, one who is wicked,. .” and every time he would read the word “one” he would shout out in a loud voice “O-N-E” as if he were saying the Shema.Afterward, Reb Zvi Elimelech recounted his experience, saying that this little Yiddele was making such a holy prayer from the “four sons” - by the way he was saying “O- N - E-”that Reb Zvi realized that even the wicked son knew the Oneness of HaShem.
