I might make some matzo ball soup and puree it real thin, and then eat it through my tube.

Anyways, anyone having a Passover Seder at their assembly? Anyone leading a Passover Seder in their house? What are you all eating? Lamb? Matzo ball soup? Gefilte fish? Any other good foods? Details, details...

Hope my brethren celebrating Pesach have a blessed holiday!

You know Alex, I think I've been taking too many things for granted lately. Your story about "Passover through a straw" really made me think.

I pray that you have a blessed Passover and Resurrection Sunday this year. Who knows? You may be eating steak by Pentecost!

I haven't done anything for Passover.

I have been thinking though, about the meaning and the fulfillment of this Feast. It's pretty awesome stuff.

No smiley in your post, so I have to assume you're serious,...

It is the yearly observance of two things:
1) Israel's deliverance from Egyptian bondage.
2) Our personal deliverance from spiritual bondage by Yeshua (Jesus), our Passover Lamb.

Fewer things in life are as Apostolic as celebrating Passover the way the Apostles did (in spirit and in truth) at the Last Supper. We do it in remembrance of Him.

Although the actual DAY of Passover was on Wed. Apr. 8th, the absence of the Holy Temple allows it to be extended somewhat into the 7-day Festival of Unleavened Bread. A seder (Passover service) is still appropriate throughout the week until the end (Wed. night Apr. 15th) of the festival. It teaches us beautiful lessons about Jesus, especially His identity as the Suffering Servant of Isaiah 53.

Hope this helps.

Chag s'meach Pesach!
Happy Passover, everyone!

Hey Neubill I am trying to find the Yiddish spelling for the Mirkat Hachama (Blessing of the Sun). I have it in Hebrew and was trying to find out the Yiddish spelling of it and I am having a terrible time working the Yiddish and Hebrew dictionary a friend of mine sent me. You happen to know it?

ברוך אתה ה' אלהינו מלך העולם עושה מעשה בראשית

I had pureed matzo ball soup tonight, it was pretty good.

Nakoe, does your assembly have a Seder?

Yep, but I won't be there.

I have a bit of an issue with Christians celebrating Jewish holidays.

I have more than a bit of an issue with Christians celebrating Pagan holidays.

LOL... ain't that the truth.

And we are told to remember his death... and it did occur at passover... so if there is ever one we have a reason to remember... passover is it.

You assume I don't have an issue with that.

So remember his death...does that mean you have to go through all the rituals of the passover celebration? I think not.
