From JIMENA:
These traditions—while beautifully varied—are also deeply interconnected, much like the Jewish people themselves. Our shared stories of resilience, liberation, and celebration unite us across geography, language, and time.

The guide features:
Traditional and contemporary Passover recipes from across the MENA region
Rituals and customs from countries like Morocco, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Egypt, Libya, and beyond
Links to stories, videos, and cultural content to deepen your holiday experience

From Kabbalah Experience:
When seen through a spiritual lens, the Seder provides you an opportunity to experience a process of personal liberation from whatever holds you back, from whatever of your past keeps you captive.

That is what we are attempting through this Haggadah: to pass over, pass through, innovate and move beyond. By transforming the meaning of these time-honored rituals, this experience becomes a vehicle for you to transform your life.

How do we do it: We shift attention from literal story to metaphor, from an ancient past others experienced to your present experience, and from external reality to the subtle workings of inner life.

This recipe substitutes potato starch and egg whites for the traditional wheat flour to keep within the Passover kosher rules. They give the cake a light texture, with the wonderfully fresh syrup keeping it moist and giving a unique flavor. You can use almond flour for a gluten-free cake, which can be served all year around.

"As we learned more about #Christian #seders, it quickly became clear that not all of the seders are alike. In this #seder tutorial, Pastor Scott Stewart of Agape Church of Little Rock, Ark., explains how to celebrate #Passover, with barely any recognition that this is a #Jewish holiday. It felt like Stewart was even telling #Jews the proper way to lead a Passover seder.

However, other Christian seders focus on exploring the Jewish roots of #Christianity. For example, in this recording, Pastor Tom Holladay of Saddleback #Church teaches his congregants about how #Jesus, who was a #Jew, and his followers would have celebrated Passover in their time."

Unpacked · Why are Christians celebrating Passover and hosting non-Jewish Seders?Passover is gaining in popularity in Christianity. Why are many churches holding Passover seders and what do Jews think about it?

Excellent article on #DaraHorn's new children's #book and more!

"When are #children ready to encounter a #Jewish #history of persecution and slaughter?

One answer is provided during the seder itself, which often ends with the traditional song “Chad Gadya,” or one little goat in #Aramaic. It’s a “cumulative” song about a baby goat that is eaten by a cat, who’s killed by a dog, who’s beaten with a stick, culminating with the Angel of Death being slain by God. One interpretation is that the goat represents the Jewish people, and the climax of the song signals the redemption of the #Jews. It’s a dark theme smuggled into an upbeat, if macabre, children’s song.

Making light of the #seder’s darker themes is a #Passover tradition all its own, and Horn is on board with it.

“By the time children are old enough to appreciate [the darkness], they own the #story. They’re characters in the story, and they know that about themselves and that this is a story about us,” said Horn."

It is a positive commandment of the Torah to relate the miracles and wonders wrought for our ancestors in Egypt on the night of the 15th of Nissan, as it is written (Exodus 13:3): "Remember this day when you left Egypt," similar to the obligation (Exodus 20:8): "Remember the Sabbath day."

How do we know this is on the night of the 15th? This is taught by the words (Exodus 13:8): "And you shall tell your child on that day, saying: 'It is because of this..." which indicate it is to be done at the time when matzah and marror are placed before you.

This mitzvah applies even when one does not have a child to tell. Even wise sages who know it well are obligated to tell about the Exodus from Egypt. Whoever elaborates upon the events which transpired is worthy of praise.

(Mishneh Torah, Chametz and Matzah 7:1)

No matter how you spell the bread of affliction, Passover is coming!

Matzoh is the unleavened bread that Jews eat during Passover. We eat matzoh and matza and matzo and matzah to remind us that our ancestors who were slaves in Egypt were freed and had no time for the bread to rise when they left. This funny Jewish Passover design makes a perfect gift!
