The Jewish festival of Passover is a very special holiday celebrating the Jewish peoples' freedom from the pharaoh of Egypt over 3,000 years ago. This year it begins on the evening of April 5th.
And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover. For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, Exodus 12:11-12a
