One of the most significant Jewish holidays, Passover, or Pesach in Hebrew, recalls and rejoices over the Israelites' redemption from slavery in Egypt. The symbolic elements of the feast cause us not only to look back and remember what the Lord did for our people in the past; they also foreshadow a greater redemption through Jesus, the Passover Lamb.

Jewish people around the world have celebrated Passover for thousands of years; however, most do not understand the ultimate significance of the festival. In this section, you'll find several articles and explanations of the meaning of this traditional Jewish feast that Jesus celebrated with his disciples.

If you already believe that Jesus is the Lamb of God, you may become inspired to have Jews for Jesus share a "Christ in the Passover" program at your congregation, have your own Passover Seder meal at home and share the true meaning of Passover with Jewish people you know.

If you don't yet believe that Jesus is the Messiah and Lamb of God, why not check out some of our articles and resources.

I would love to have overheard the Bible study Y'shua (Jesus) gave His disciples just after He rose from the dead:

"Then He said to them, "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me. And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures." (Luke 24:44-45) 

There is a lot of partying going on this month in some Jewish and Christian circles and most of it will not honor the God of Abraham, Moses and Jesus.
