Passover belongs to one of the most ancient holidays. The order of its celebration is defined in the holy Book of the Jews, the Torah. It means not only gaining freedom after centuries of Egyptian captivity, but also serves as a reminder that Jews all over the world are one people. In addition, it is a spring festival, symbolizing renewal and the beginning of a new life.
Every year, the Jewish Passover is celebrated on the 14th of the Jewish month of Nisan, corresponding to the first month of the biblical year. According to legend, it was in this month that the exodus of Jews from Egypt took place. In Israel, the celebrations last a week, while outside the country they last for eight days.

Happy Passover: what to say and what to respond to the Jewish Passover
Traditionally, on Passover, Jews congratulate each other with the words: "Hag Pesach sameach!" ("Happy Passover!"). You can also use the universal greeting "Hag sameah" in Hebrew or "Gut Yom Tov" in Yiddish. Both greetings mean "Happy Holiday" and can be used for any Jewish celebration.
You should respond to these words in the same way. But there are other phrases that can be used to congratulate you on the Jewish Passover. For example, you can wish "Hag Pesach kosher ve sameach!" ("Joyful and kosher Passover!") or "Ihulim hamim le Pesach" ("Warm wishes for Passover!").
Since Passover is also a spring holiday, you can also say "Hag aviv sameach!" ("Happy Spring holiday!").
