Passover is one of the most widely observed Jewish holidays and is     commemorated as a time to contemplate the endurance of the Jewish people     throughout history. Passover begins on the 15th day of the month of Nisan     (equivalent to March and April in Gregorian calendar).<br \/>\nIn the narrative of the Exodus, the Bible tells that God 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&#8217;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 &#8220;passover&#8221;. When     Pharaoh freed the Hebrews, it is said that they left in such a hurry that     they could not wait for bread to rise. In commemoration, for the duration     of Passover, no leavened bread is eaten, for which reason it is called     &#8220;The Festival of the Unleavened Bread.\u201d Matza (flat unleavened     bread) is the primary symbol of the holiday.<br \/>\nPassover is one of the three pilgrimage festivals during which the entire     Jewish populace historically made a pilgrimage to the Temple     in Jerusalem.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"margin-left: 52px;margin-top: 577px;width: 726px\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma;color: #cc0066;font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: Tahoma;color: #cc0066;font-weight: bold\" lang=\"EN\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-106\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/vac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2010\/03\/images-1.jpg\" alt=\"images-1\" width=\"101\" height=\"130\" \/>Good Friday, also called     Holy Friday, Black Friday, or Great Friday, observed primarily by     Christians commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
