Observe the month of Aviv, and keep the Pesach unto Hashem thy God; for in the month of Aviv Hashem thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night.

Today’s Israel Inspiration

The origins of Pesach (Passover) lie in the Springtime celebrations of the first grain harvest. The holiday celebrates God’s great redemptive act of the Jews’ exodus from slavery in Egypt to freedom. According to Jewish law, it is forbidden to eat or even possess any food that can contain leaven, chamtez, on Passover. Therefore, a major part of the preparations for Pesach consists of removing all traces of leavened foods from the home. Many begin to clean for Passover and stock their kitchens with special kosher-for-Passover foods weeks before the holiday. With only a few weeks remaining until Passover begins on April 10th, start your preparations now!

Today’s Israel Photo

Today’s photograph by Ilan Rosen is of a herd of camels in the Negev desert. Camels have been an important part of the Holy Land’s landscape from Biblical times as described by Isaiah, “they carry their wealth…and riches upon the camels’ hump” (30:6). Visitors to Israel today can enjoy a camel safari in the footsteps of the patriarchs.
