Passover To Begin
Wednesday, April IL


The Feast of Unleavened Bread,
otherwise known as Passover. begins
this year on Wednesday, April IL, and
will be observed by all Jewish people
for a period of seven or eight days,
| according to their Interpretation of
| the Biblical injunction in Exodus
23:14.
During the Passover week all Jew
ish families abstain from eating leav-
en- in any form and in its stead use
the MatZoth, concluding the festival
on April 49,
The first and last days are days of
holy convocation. That Is, services
are held on these days in the syna-
gogues. The evening OF the first day
of Passover is particularly import
ant.
This evening is known in Jewish
circles as "Scder Night" It's intent Is
to unite members of household
about the festive board and there
read together the ritual compiled for
the occasion and known as the 'Hag-
gadah." This liturgical composition
recites the chief events Of the Exc
dus OF the Children Of Israel from
Egypt and with many quaint song
and story revives memories of hard

people of Israel were delivered by

reaches back to remote antiquity
when it was observed by the Hebrew
tribes in the dawn OF history as an
agricultural festival incident to
Spring. At an early period in the
history of these tribes they attained
n degree OF self consciousness and
associated historical events with
their career. The Exodus from
Egyptian bondage was commemorate
cd in this Pesach feast. An entirely
new content was invested in the
feast which became message Of
freedom and a memorial of deliver
ance from slavery and oppression.
The festival Of Pesach was used by
the synagogue as means OF conse-
Grating the Jewish home to God, the
Redeemer and Protector Of Israel.
The story Of the deliverance Of their
forefathers from bondage and slavery
reminded the Jews of Gods provi-
Dental guidance and gave them con-
fidence in the final redemption OF all
humanity from tyranny and injus-
tice.
The Passover Feast Is keyed to
this dominant thought Of liberty and
redemption from bigotry. ignorance
and oppression. The importance Of
the feast lodges in the emphasis
placed on the quality OF freedom an
