Passover,
or Pesach (from: פֶּסַח in Hebrew,
Yiddish), /ˈpesaχ/ Pesah,
Pesakh, Yiddish: Peysekh, Paysakh, Paysokh) is an important Biblically-derived Jewish festival. Historically,
together with Shavuot
("Pentecost") and Sukkot
("Tabernacles"), Passover is one of the three pilgrimage festivals (Shalosh Regalim)
during which the entire population of the kingdom of Judah made a pilgrimage to
the Temple in
Jerusalem.
Samaritans still make this
pilgrimage to Mount
Gerizim,
but only men participate in public worship.Passover commences on the 15th of
the Hebrew
month
of Nisan and lasts for either
seven days (in Israel) or eight days (in
the diaspora). In Judaism, a day commences at dusk and lasts until the
following dusk, thus the first day of Passover only begins after dusk of
the 14th of Nisan and ends at dusk of the 15th day of the month of Nisan. The
rituals unique to the Passover celebrations commence with the Passover Seder when the 15th of
Nisan has begun. In the Northern Hemisphere Passover takes place in spring as the Torah prescribes it:
"in the month of [the] spring" (בחדש האביב Exodus 23:15). It is one of the
most widely observed Jewish holidays. The Jewish people celebrate Passover as
a commemoration of their liberation over 3,300 years ago by God from slavery in ancient Egypt that was ruled by the
Pharaohs, and their birth as a
nation under the leadership of Moses.
It commemorates the story of the Exodus as described in the Hebrew Bible especially in the Book of Exodus, in which the Israelites were freed from
slavery in Egypt. In the narrative of the Exodus, the Bible tells that
God helped the Children of Israel escape from their
slavery in Egypt by inflicting ten plagues upon the ancient Egyptians before the Pharaoh would
release his Israelite slaves; the tenth and worst of the plagues was the death of the Egyptian first-born. The Israelites were
instructed to mark the doorposts of their homes with the blood of a slaughtered
spring lamb and, upon seeing this, the spirit of the Lord knew to pass over
the first-born in these homes, hence the name of the holiday.There is some
debate over where the term is actually derived from. When the Pharaoh freed the
Israelites, it is said that they left in such a hurry that they could not wait
for bread dough to rise (leaven). In commemoration, for the duration of
Passover no leavened
bread
is eaten, for which reason it is called "The Festival of the Unleavened
Bread".Thus Matzo (flat unleavened bread) is eaten during Passover and it
is a symbol of the holiday. The Passover Seder (Hebrew: סֵדֶר order, arrangement"; Yiddish: Seyder) is a
Jewish ritual feast that marks the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Passover.
It is conducted on the evenings of the 14th day of Nisan in the Hebrew
calendar, and on the 15th by traditionally observant Jews living outside
Israel. This corresponds to late March or April in the Gregorian calendar. The
Seder is a ritual performed by a community or by multiple generations of a
family, involving a retelling of the story of the liberation of the Israelites
from slavery in ancient Egypt. This story is in the Book of Exodus (Shemot)
in the Hebrew Bible. The Seder itself is based on the Biblical verse commanding
Jews to retell the story of the Exodus from Egypt: "You shall tell your
child on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I
came out of Egypt.'" (Exodus 13:8) Traditionally, families and friends
gather in the evening to read the text of the Haggadah, an ancient work derived
from the Mishnah (Pesahim 10).The Haggadah contains the narrative of the
Israelite exodus from Egypt, special blessings and rituals, commentaries from
the Talmud, and special Passover songs. Seder customs include drinking four
cups of wine, eating matza, partaking of symbolic foods placed on the Passover
Seder Plate, and reclining in celebration of freedom. The Seder is performed in
much the same way by Jews all over the world. The Haggadah (Hebrew: הַגָּדָה,
"telling", plural: Haggadot) is a Jewish text that sets forth the
order of the Passover Seder. Reading the Haggadah at the Seder table is a
fulfillment of the Scriptural commandment to each Jew to "tell your
son" of the Jewish liberation from slavery in Egypt as described in the
Book of Exodus in the Torah. ("And thou shalt tell thy son in that day,
saying: It is because of that which the LORD did for me when I came forth out
of Egypt. " Ex. 13:8) Sephardi and Mizrahi Jews also apply the term Haggadah
to the service itself, as it constitutes the act of "telling your
son." ebay3887 / 122
