Passover 2013
Passover begins sundown March 25, 2013 through April 2, 2013
Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) is known as the “holiday of freedom,” commemorating the Jewish Exodus from Egypt following 210 years of slavery. Passover is regarded as the “birth” of the Jewish nation, and its lessons of struggle and identity continue to form the basis of Jewish consciousness 3,300 years after the event.
Passover is an 8-day holiday (in Israel, seven days). The name derives from the fact that during the final plague — the slaying of the first born — God “passed over” the Jewish homes.
