After singing piyots and sacred songs, Rabbi Pinto spoke about the virtues of the Passover days and quoted from the words of the sages of Israel, "There are two holy nights in a year. The night of Yom Kippur when there is power to do teshuvah out of fear and the Seder night when there is power to do tshuva out of love," he explained.

In the words of Rabbi Pinto: "During Passover, a person's destiny is determined, whether that year he will have miracles above nature or God forbid, therefore everyone should properly prepare for Passover and get stronger."
In addition, Rabbi Pinto called for strengthening ourselves with free love and helping the weak, "We are in a reality where we need miracles every day. This is the time to multiply free love and stay away from controversy like you stay away from fire," added Rabbi Pinto.
