PASSOVER IN ISRAEL APR 12-20, 2025
What Is Passover (Pesach)?-Passover 2025 will be celebrated from April 12-20
When Is Passover?
Passover 2025 will be celebrated from April 12 - April 20.
The first Seder will be on April 12 after nightfall, and the second Seder will be on April 13 after nightfall.
Passover is celebrated by eating matzah (unleaven bread) and maror (bitter herbs).
For
the duration of the 8 (or 7 days in Israel) of Passover, which
celebrates the emancipation of the Hebrews from Egyptian slavery,
chametz (leaven) is strictly avoided.
What Is Passover?
The
eight-day Jewish holiday of Passover is celebrated in the early spring,
from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan, April 12 -
20, 2025. Passover (Pesach) commemorates the emancipation of the
Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. Pesach is observed by avoiding
leaven, and highlighted by the Seder meals that include four cups of
wine, eating matzah and bitter herbs, and retelling the story of the
Exodus.In Hebrew it is known as Pesach (which means “to pass over”),
because G‑d passed over the Jewish homes when killing the Egyptian
firstborn on the very first Passover eve.
Passover History in a
Nutshell-As told in the Bible, after many decades of slavery to the
Egyptian pharaohs, during which time the Israelites were subjected to
backbreaking labor and unbearable horrors, G‑d saw the people’s distress
and sent Moses to Pharaoh with a message: “Send forth My people, so
that they may serve Me.” But despite numerous warnings, Pharaoh refused
to heed G‑d’s command. G‑d then sent upon Egypt ten devastating plagues,
afflicting them and destroying everything from their livestock to their
crops.At the stroke of midnight of 15 Nissan in the year 2448 from
creation (1313 BCE), G‑d visited the last of the ten plagues on the
Egyptians, killing all their firstborn. While doing so, G‑d spared the
children of Israel, “passing over” their homes—hence the name of the
holiday. Pharaoh’s resistance was broken, and he virtually chased his
former slaves out of the land. The Israelites left in such a hurry, in
fact, that the bread they baked as provisions for the way did not have
time to rise. Six hundred thousand adult males, plus many more women and
children, left Egypt on that day and began the trek to Mount Sinai and
their birth as G‑d’s chosen people.In ancient times the Passover
observance included the sacrifice of the paschal lamb, which was roasted
and eaten at the Seder on the first night of the holiday. This was the
case until the Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed in the 1st century.
How Is Passover Celebrated?
Passover
is divided into two parts:The first two days and last two days (the
latter commemorating the splitting of the Red Sea) are full-fledged
holidays. Holiday candles are lit at night, and kiddush and sumptuous
holiday meals are enjoyed on both nights and days. We don’t go to work,
drive, write, or switch on or off electric devices. We are permitted to
cook and to carry outdoors (click here for the details).The middle four
days are called Chol Hamoed, semi-festive “intermediate days,” when most
forms of work are permitted.No Chametz
To commemorate the unleavened
bread that the Israelites ate when they left Egypt, we don’t eat—or
even retain in our possession—any chametz from midday of the day before
Passover until the conclusion of the holiday. Chametz means leavened
grain—any food or drink that contains even a trace of wheat, barley,
rye, oats, spelt or their derivatives, and which wasn’t guarded from
leavening or fermentation. This includes bread, cake, cookies, cereal,
pasta, and most alcoholic beverages. Moreover, almost any processed food
or drink can be assumed to be chametz unless certified
otherwise.Ridding our homes of chametz is an intensive process. It
involves a full-out spring-cleaning search-and-destroy mission during
the weeks before Passover, and culminates with a ceremonial search for
chametz on the night before Passover, and then a burning of the chametz
ceremony on the morning before the holiday. Chametz that cannot be
disposed of can be sold to a non-Jew (and bought back after the
holiday).Matzah-Instead of chametz, we eat matzah—flat unleavened bread.
It is a mitzvah to partake of matzah on the two Seder nights (see below
for more on this), and during the rest of the holiday it is optional.It
is ideal to use handmade shmurah matzah, which has been zealously
guarded against moisture from the moment of the harvest. You can
purchase shmurah matzah here.The Seders-The highlight of Passover is the
Seder, observed on each of the first two nights of the holiday. The
Seder is a fifteen-step family-oriented tradition and ritual-packed
feast.The focal points of the Seder are:Eating matzah.Eating bitter
herbs—to commemorate the bitter slavery endured by the
Israelites.Drinking four cups of wine or grape juice—a royal drink to
celebrate our newfound freedom.The recitation of the Haggadah, a liturgy
that describes in detail the story of the Exodus from Egypt. The
Haggadah is the fulfillment of the biblical obligation to recount to our
children the story of the Exodus on the night of Passover. It begins
with a child asking the traditional “Four Questions.”Why Passover Is
Important-Passover, celebrating the greatest series of miracles ever
experienced in history, is a time to reach above nature to the
miraculous. But how are miracles achieved? Let’s take our cue from the
matzah. Flat and unflavored, it embodies humility. Through ridding
ourselves of inflated egos, we are able to tap into the miraculous well
of divine energy we all have within our souls.Passover FAQ-Passover,
also known as Pesach, is the 8-day Jewish holiday celebrated in the
early spring that commemorates the Israelites’ emancipation from slavery
in ancient Egypt.What is the history of Passover? After decades of
slavery to the Egyptian pharaohs, G‑d saw the Israelites’ distress and
sent Moses to Pharaoh to demand their release. Despite numerous
warnings, Pharaoh refused to heed G‑d’s command. G‑d then wrought upon
Egypt 10 devastating plagues. By the last, Pharaoh’s resistance was
broken and he virtually chased his former slaves out of the land.Why is
it called Passover? During the last of the 10 plagues, death of the
Egyptian firstborns, G‑d spared the children of Israel, “passing over”
their homes—hence the name of the holiday.How is Passover celebrated?
During Passover, chametz (leavened bread) is strictly avoided, and
matzah is consumed instead. The highlight is the Seder, a ritual-packed
feast conducted on the first two nights,during which we eat matzah,
drink four cups of wine, recline, and recount the story of our freedom.
