I think the first question should be: who has the minhag of saying the
pasuk "va'e`evor `alayich" at all, as opposed to only "revava
ketzemahh hasade". I don't remember ever hearing it in England, but
many haggadot in Israel seem to have it. R. Shlomo Gaguine says in
Keter Shem Tov volume 3 that it's an Ashkenazi and Baghdadi minhag. So
who here says it and who doesn't?
BTW, I only just noticed that the order of the verses in the haggada
is reversed: "revava ketzemahh hasade" is Ezekiel 16:7, and "va'e`evor
`alayich" is 16:6. Do any commentaries address this?
