Q: Why was arami chosen over more complete passages in shmos re: Exodus?<br>
<br>
A: Because every am ho'oretz was literate enough for vidduy bikkurim! And thereofre it was a passage known by all as opposed to parshas bo.<br>
<br>
This explains the ability to say arami and still not be able to say Hallel which was my question.</blockquote></div><br>I don't understand. This seems to be contradicted by Bikkurim 3:7, which says that the kohen would prompt everyone who brought bikkurim word by word, in order to spare the feelings of those amei ha-aretz who did not know how to read parshas bikkurim.<br>
