Passover Holiday

Passover is a Jewish holiday commemorating the Israelites’ liberation from slavery in Egypt, an event described in the biblical Book of Exodus. Celebrated annually for eight days, it involves retelling the story, special prayers, and rituals like a Seder dinner featuring symbolic foods that represent aspects of their history and freedom. The holiday also includes removing leavened bread from homes to symbolize humility and renewal. Passover fosters reflection on themes of freedom, justice, and resilience, serving as both a religious observance and a cultural tradition shared across generations.
