Educational Resources for Passover


Hi Everyone!

Passover is a Jewish holiday, of Biblical origin, marking the birth of the Jews as a people and their emergence as a unique
nation in history, devoted to G-d's will. It celebrates the liberation of the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt
over 3000 years ago, under the leadership of Moses.

This year, Passover begins on Friday night, March 30, 2018.

The Jewish Trivia Quiz - Passover Trivia
http://www.jewish-trivia.com

In which Hebrew month is Passover celebrated ?
Why do we eat matzah during Passover ?
How old was Moshe's mother when she gave birth to Moshe ?
How long did the Jews' exile in Egypt last ?
Where did the Jews live in Egypt ?
How many days did the plague of blood last ?
What happened to Pharoh's daughter, Batiya, when the
Jewish people left Egypt ?

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
