The Jewish Festival of
PESACH
![Page 8: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pesach is one of the most important Jewish festivals and takes place in the spring.
Pesach is also sometimes known as “Passover”
![Page 9: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The festival lasts for eight days
The exact date of the festival changes each year according to the moon.
![Page 10: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Pesach remembers the story of the Exodus – the time when the Israelites were slaves in Egypt…
![Page 11: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
…and God sent 10 plagues on the Egyptians
![Page 12: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The last plague was the death of the first born son of each Egyptian family
![Page 13: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
To protect themselves from this plague, the Israelites had to kill a lamb…
![Page 14: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
…and paint its blood above the doorways of their houses.
![Page 15: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Then the Angel of Death would know to ‘pass over’ their house
![Page 16: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Moses parted the Red Sea...
![Page 17: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
…and led the Israelites out of Egypt and into the wilderness.
![Page 18: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
These events are remembered during Pesach and read from the Hagadah book during the first meal of Pesach.
![Page 19: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
This meal is called the Seder meal, and each item of food on the Seder plate has an important meaning.
![Page 20: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
For example, bread without yeast is eaten to remind Jews that the Israelites left Egypt in a hurry…
…and had no time to take yeast with them for their cooking.
![Page 21: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The youngest member of the family will ask why they are eating these items and the oldest member will explain the reason.
![Page 22: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Before the festival begins, families will spring clean their houses…
![Page 23: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
…all leaven (yeast) is removed from the house and it is not used in any cooking during the festival…
![Page 24: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
…and on the first and last day of Pesach no work is permitted.
![Page 25: Religious Studies Celebration - The philosophy site...Pesach The Passover story The Seder Meal Part 1 The Seder Meal Part 2 The Seder Meal Part 3 The Seder Meal Maror Charoset Karpas](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022090604/6058b945d9d3d2027312e9a6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Jews see this event of being rescued from slavery in Egypt as important to remember because it shows God keeping his promise made in the covenant with Abraham - that God would guide and protect them.
