In spring, Jews around the world celebrate one of the main holidays — Passover, or the Jewish Passover, dedicated to the liberation of Jews from Egyptian slavery and the formation of a nation. In 2026, the celebration will begin at sunset on April 1 and last until the night of April 9. At the same time, the celebrations in Israel will end on April 8. Izvestia has prepared postcards and greetings for this date, which can be shared on messengers and social networks.

The meaning and traditions of Passover: what does the Jewish Passover mean?

Passover is dedicated to the central event of sacred history — the exodus from Egypt, the liberation of the Jewish people from centuries of slavery and the attainment of freedom. Its name (from Hebrew "pasakh" — "passed by", "passed by") It refers to the event of the tenth Egyptian plague, when, according to the biblical text, God struck the firstborn of Egypt, but passed by the houses of the Israelites, marked with the blood of a sacrificial lamb.

This holiday is considered the birthday of the Jewish people, when disparate tribes found a common destiny and faith. The celebration of Passover is filled with deep symbolism and strict traditions that have been carefully preserved for thousands of years.

The central event is the Passover Seder, a family meal held on the first (outside of Israel, also on the second) night of Passover. At this time, family members gather together, say special prayers and eat special ritual dishes, each of which has its own symbolic meaning.

So, matzo (unleavened tortillas) reminds of the bread that the Jews ate after leaving Egypt, maror (bitter greens) symbolizes the bitterness of slavery, and haroset (a mixture of fruits and nuts) — clay, which slaves used in the construction of structures. One of the key prescriptions of Passover is a ban on Chametz products with sourdough. They should not be consumed or stored in the house during the holiday.

Despite strict prohibitions, Passover remains not only a religious holiday, but also a family holiday, reminding of the value of freedom, historical memory and continuity of traditions. Congratulating on the celebration, they usually send wishes related to its main meaning. Congratulations themselves can be both religious and neutral.
