Pesach – Passover
Physical Salvation
Deuteronomy 16
1 Observe the month of Aviv and celebrate the Passover of the Lord your God, because in the month of Aviv he brought you out of Egypt by night. 2 Sacrifice as the Passover to the Lord your God an animal from your flock or herd at the place the Lord will choose as a dwelling for his Name. 3 Do not eat it with bread made with yeast, but for seven days eat unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, because you left Egypt in haste—so that all the days of your life you may remember the time of your departure from Egypt. 4 Let no yeast be found in your possession in all your land for seven days. Do not let any of the meat you sacrifice on the evening of the first day remain until morning.
Calendar for Shalosh Regalim
While there are more holidays celebrated by Jewish communities, my work here is focused on Shalosh Regalim. Shalosh Regalim is composed of three required festivals; Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles/Booths.
I see these three festivals fitting into two arcs. The “Salvation Arc” moves from physical salvation, as seen in Passover to spiritual salvation, as seen in Pentecost. The second arc is the “Living in Joy Under God Arc” as seen in Sukkot, Booths.”
- 1st Arc – “Salvation Arc”
- Shabbos haGadol
- Pesach, Passover
- Counting Omer
- First Fruit
- Pentecost
- 2nd Arc – “Living in Joy Under God Arc”
- Rosh haShanah
- Yom Kippur
- Sukkot, Booths
- Hoshana Rabbah
- Shemini Atzeret
- Simchat Torah Arc
