Passover, also known as Pesach, commemorates the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt, as described in the Book of Exodus. Central to this story is the theme of divine intervention, where God delivers His people through a series of plagues. This culminates in the sparing of the Israelite households that were marked with lamb’s blood. The ritual meal, known as the Seder, emphasises memory, identity, and gratitude for freedom. Therefore, Passover is fundamentally a celebration of both physical and spiritual emancipation.
