For Passover: a bit of history and humor

Passover is a home-based celebration. At our home, we gather 10-30 people–Jews and non-Jews–to celebrate freedom, spring, rebirth. And, a long history. (Sadly, this year, no gathering in my home…but next year, yes, in DeKalb.) Thanks to SLU professor Bruce Weiner for the link to this very good article about the Haggadah–the text that guides the Passover seder.Lots about the history of the Haggadah, and the holiday. Reproductions from an old Haggadah, photos of a related museum display. Check it out.

Now that you’re properly up to speed on Passover, you’re ready for this lighter note:

Happy Passover. Peace.
