I believe that Chazal carefully fulfilled the?chiyuv of "V'hegadta lvincha bayom hahu"by finding?a text that contains the formula (ie. the Cheftzah) of "V'hegadta". ? By Bikurim the Chumash tells us?that the bringer introduces?his statement of thanksgiving by "Hegadti hayom laShem Elokecha" and continues with four verses that describes the history of the Exodus? The Chumash thereby tells us that these four verses constitute a "hagadah".?? Thus Chazal use the Cheftzah of Hagadah by Bikurim as the Cheftzah of Hagadah by Pesach, fulfilling the Mitzvah of Hagadah.
