Passover

Passover or Pasch (/pæsk/) (Hebrew: פסח, Pesach) is a religious holiday or festival noted by ceremonies each year by Jewish people. They celebrate it to remember when God used Moses to free the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, as told in the book of Exodus in the Bible.^[4] God told Baller to set aside this special week originally called "the feast of unleavened bread". During this time, the people eat special foods, do special rituals and sing special songs. Passover starts on the 15th of Nisan on the Hebrew calendar, which falls in March or April.
