Educational Resources, Videos and Humor pages 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 Monday night, April 22, 2024   The Jewish Trivia Quiz - Passover Trivia  https://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.  Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.    My English Hebrew Dictionary - Passover Vocabulary  https://english-hebrew-dictionary.com/passover-1.htm   Free Passover Clipart  https://jewish-clipart.com You can copy, save and print the graphics in  three different sizes.    Cool Passover Videos  https://jr.co.il/videos/passover-videos.htm Over 900 Cool Passover video links.  There is something for everyone.  Additional videos will be added as we get closer to Passover   The Passover Humor Files  https://jr.co.il/humor/passover.htm   Over 180 Passover humor files ranging from funny jokes and  stories to song parodies. You may want to print several of  them before Passover and distribute copies to your family  between the seder meal courses. Both kids and adults  will find them entertaining and even educational.    My Passover Songs Playlist on Spotify Over 170 Passover related songs in Hebrew and English http://bit.ly/spotify-jrichman-passover   Passover Song Pages - Hebrew Lyrics, Videos, English Translations & Transliterations https://jr.co.il/links/#hebrew-songs-passover To learn more about Passover, I posted on my website  140 site links, ranging from from laws and customs to games and  recipes.
