Passover, or Pesach, is a major Jewish festival commemorating the Exodus from Egypt and the liberation of the Israelites from slavery. It begins on the fifteenth day of Nisan in the Hebrew calendar and is observed for seven or eight days depending on community practice. The first night is centered on the seder, a ritual meal with readings, symbolic foods, questions, and storytelling. During the festival, many Jewish households avoid chametz, leavened grain products.
