Passover (Jewish)


Passover begins on the 15th day of the month of nisan , the first month of the hebrew cakendar's festival year according to the hebrew Bible.In the narratibe of the exodus , the Bible tells that YHWH inflicted ten plagues upon the Egyptians before pharaoh would release his hebrew slaves , with the tenth plague being the killing of all of the firstborn, from the pharaoh's son to the firstborn of the dungeon captive , to the firstborn of cattle . The Hebrews were instructed to mark the doorposts of their homes with the blood of a spring lamb and ,upon seeing this , the spirit of the Lord passed over these homes , Hence the term "Passover" .
