Understanding Your Jewish Neighbour: Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread

Passover is a significant Jewish festival that foreshadows the story of Easter, helping Christians see more clearly how Jesus’ death and resurrection fulfil God’s plan of redemption. Read how this can open doors for meaningful connection with Jewish neighbours and thoughtful gospel-centred conversations.
The house has been scrubbed clean and cleared of every last crumb of leavened bread. The table is set with a beautiful cloth, the good china, and heirloom candlesticks. The air is filled with the aromas of beloved family recipes simmering in the kitchen. Some gatherings are so large that every leaf must be added to the dining room table. Others are smaller and more intimate.
But whether large or small, most Passover gatherings begin the same way. The youngest person present asks a question that has echoed in Jewish homes for centuries:
‘Why is this night different from all other nights?’
