Passover, or Pesach, is a significant Jewish festival commemorating the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, as narrated in the Book of Exodus. Lasting for seven or eight days, depending on tradition, Passover begins with a Seder meal where symbolic foods and rituals are shared. The festival emphasizes themes of freedom, redemption, and renewal. Families and communities come together for prayers, storytelling, and feasting on unleavened bread (matzah). Passover serves as a time for reflection, gratitude, and the transmission of cultural heritage, symbolizing the triumph of hope and resilience over adversity.
