This weekend on "The Chosen People," celebrate Resurrection Day with Dr. Mitch Glaser and Robert Walter as they uncover the deep connection between Passover and redemption. Explore God's promises to Israel in Exodus and how they find ultimate fulfillment in Jesus. Learn the rich symbolism of the Passover Seder elements—unleavened bread, bitter herbs, and the four cups—and their prophetic significance. Discover how Jesus transformed this ancient celebration into a powerful picture of His sacrifice as the true Lamb of God!

Pastor Bruce Zachary leads us through the traditional Passover Seder showing us how the entirety of the Old Testament points to the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.

  A Place Called Gethsemane The Passion Week account of Jesus happens during the annual feast of Passover for the Jews.  This is one of three times that every Jew was required to travel to Jerusalem to celebrate the feast.  Jesus being a devout Jew went to the city as well not only for the feast but to complete His awesome mission. Not every Jew in the world could possibly come but it is estimated that 1 to 1.5 million people would be in the city during Passover.  The picture below from the Temple Institute in Israel shows the 1000's entering the city at Passover.  Since Jerusalem was a city of perhaps an estimated population 35,000 to 80,000 depending on the archaeologist, it is clear that the city could not handle such a dramatic increase in population.  Every extra room was rented and those not finding rooms camped out on the hills nearby or they sought lodging in nearby towns like Bethlehem or Bethany.  Many of those who camped out in the hills around Jerusalem would more than likely camp on the beautiful slopes of the surrounding hills like Mount of Olives east of Jerusalem. (Vander Laan 177)       After Jesus and His apostles had completed the Passover Seder meal they went to the Mount of Olives to a place called Gethsemane at the Mount of Olives in an olive grove.  The account can be found in Matt 26:36, Mark 14:32, Luke 22:39 and John 18:1.  The word Gethsemane is the English transliteration of a Greek word which was based on two Hebrew words.  (Picture below from Permaculture Research Institute, is a good idea of what the side of the Mt. of Olives would have looked like in Jesus' day). The first was GAT.  The Hebrew word stands for a press.  The second word is SHEMIN which means oil – like olive oil.  The plural in Hebrew is Sheminim.  Thus, Gat Sheminim means a press for oils and referred to in most cases an olive press.  (Vander Laan 178) Today in Israel one can visit Tel Maresha in the Negev.  At this tel archaeologists found the remains of a perfectly intact olive press.  Olive presses were built in caves close to an olive grove.  The cave itself would have “windows” cut into the walls and an air shaft in the roof.  These “windows” and the airshaft were used to control the airflow and temperature since processing olives required a certain temperature range.  The olives themselves were processed by first smashing them with a millstone to break open the skins.   The smashed olives were then put into special porous bags and crushed under the weight of huge weighted down cypress logs in the main press room.  The olive oil would run down into a basin which had a drain directly into a collection jar below the pile of bags of crushed olive pulp.  The jar of oil would be sealed when filled and made ready to be taken to market.  (Vander Laan 178)  The picture below is of the Gat Sheminim at Tel Maresha Israel courtesy of Israel Travel Inc. Where is this exact location of where Jesus prayed and is there a connection to the Gat Sheminim and the word Gethsemane?  As far as location is concerned, “Christian tradition has always placed Gethsemane on the lower slopes of the Mount of Olives – though today the Roman Catholic and Russian Orthodox churches hallow different sites.”  (Reader's Digest 186)  Recently, however, archaeologists working at the base of the Mount of Olives made a very interesting discovery.  “A cave nearby was recently identified as containing an ancient olive press.  Early 6th century tradition supports this cave as being Jesus' Gethsemane.” (Vander Laan 179)   Moreover, no archaeological evidence nor evidence from ancient descriptions of the city of Jerusalem and its surroundings as ever found a place called the Garden of Gethsemane.  This name is a modern label attached to an area that tourists would come to experience what the place called Gethsemane in the Bible was like.  “The designation ‘Gethsemane' does not occur outside the gospels.  Even Luke 22:39 omits the name, using the more general description, ‘the Mount of Olives.'”(Flusser 251) What we know for a fact is that the Mount of Olives had an olive grove and near olive groves one will find a Gat Sheminim or an olive press.   One might conjecture the following based upon the fact that in the Jewish culture God taught His people difficult theological truths with the use of pictures – as in the case of the word tekton and 1 Peter 2:4-6.  Jesus went to the Mount of Olives and entered the gat sheminim, or the olive press, to find a secluded place to pray.  He would prefer the seclusion of the press since there were many possible pilgrims camping out on the slopes of the hill for Passover and the press would be located in a quiet cave.  Perhaps Jesus knew the owner and was able to gain private access to the olive press.  Again, all of this is conjecture but it is based on the archaeological evidence that is factual.   In the gat sheminim, or in a location very close, we know that Jesus prayed and was in deep stress and anguish.  In the account found in Luke 22:44 Jesus' sweat was like drops of  blood.  What is intriguing about this picture is a verse found in Isaiah 53:5.  This verse for us Christians says He was crushed for our inequities.  When one makes the connection between the discovery of the olive press and how it was used and these verses it would seem that God is showing us how Jesus was crushed – like an olive crushed by the weight of a huge cypress log with heavy weights attached.  It would seem that God Himself is making use of the archaeological discoveries to open up the world of the Bible to us so that its meaning is enhanced.  Do we know for a fact that Jesus was in the olive press or the Gat Sheminim?  No we do not.  But, these discoveries perhaps are given to us to intensify our understanding of His word and the picture of the gat sheminim can simply be used to help us understand the scope of Jesus' stress and anxiety that horrible night.

Each year, thousands of Greater Bostonians observe Passover through Seder, the ceremonial meal of prayers, blessings and wine retelling the story of the Jews' exodus from ancient Egypt. It's a tradition passed down from generation to generation all over the world, but it didn't reach the White House until 2009. Author Richard Michelson wrote about this unique seder in his new children's picture book, “Next Year in the White House: Barack Obama's First Presidential Seder.”

On this Friday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid ramps up the hype heading into one of the holiest weeks of the year for Jews worldwide, the celebration of Passover and the telling of Moses' heroics, leading the Israelites out of slavery under the Pharaoh in Egypt to the promised land of Israel after 40 days and nights trekking through the dessert. To proud Jews, the Passover Seder is more than just a meal, but a guide to the continued survival of the Jewish people. In other news of the day, House Republicans pass the budget framework for President Trump's "big, beautiful bill", the Supreme Court rules that the Trump administration must facilitate the return of a Maryland man that seemingly was mistakenly deported, the NYPD introduces its new "Quality of Life Division", and New York Governor Kathy Hochul is demanding that Long Island schools do away with their mascots and logos that reference Native Americans who formerly populated the greater Long Island area. Yehuda Kaploun, Caroline Glick, Curtis Sliwa, Anthony Cumia and Cory Zelnik join Sid on this Friday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.

With 59 hostages still in Gaza, both dead and alive, Jon Polin, the father of slain Israeli-American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin, doesn’t believe it’s appropriate for any Jew to have a festive Passover celebrating freedom this year. "The point," he says, "is let's lean into the pain this year, and not even try to sugarcoat it for our kids" Polin and his wife Rachel became prominent international advocates for their son Hersh’s release until the tragic news of his murder by Hamas terrorists in an underground tunnel last August. The couple continue to advocate tirelessly for the release of the remaining hostages. On the Haaretz Podcast, Polin spoke with host Allison Kaplan Sommer about how his family is facing their difficult first Passover Seder since Hersh’s death and how he believes others should treat the holiday. “We've talked about symbolic things that people should do: Maybe put a lemon on your table. A lemon because it's yellow, the color of the hostage struggle, and because it's bitter - to reflect the bitterness that the hostages and their families and all the Jewish people are going through,” he said, also suggesting “instead of just dipping our greens in the salt water, let's drink some salt water, because we know from testimonies of recently released hostages that is what they are drinking." In recent weeks, Polin made headlines in Israel by calling for members of the coalition to refrain from wearing yellow ribbon pins symbolizing solidarity with hostage families and on the podcast, explained his rationale. “If you're in a position of authority and you are not willing to do the things necessary to bring home hostages, that's your political choice. But then, don't wear the pin.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with filmmaker, Accidental Talmudist and longtime “Jewish Journal” contributor Salvador Litvak. Litvak's Passover classic, “When Do We Eat?” stars Max Greenfield, Ben Feldman, Shiri Appleby, Lesley Ann Warren, Michael Lerner, and Jack Klugman. Litvak directed the film that he co-wrote with his wife and partner, Nina Davidovich Litvak.    The Litvaks' second movie was “Saving Lincoln.” Their new film “Guns & Moses” is out this summer.    “The perennial fifth question of the Passover Seder is, ‘When do we eat?'” Litvak, who is also the author of “Let My People Laugh: Greatest Jewish Jokes of All Time,”  says. “There's all these holiday movies… but there was no Passover movie.”    When the Litvaks made “When Do We Eat?” they were connected to Judaism, but not yet Orthodox.    “The movie's probably a little bit edgier than we would make it today,” Litvak says. “One of the main plot points is that one of the kids doses his dad with a strong hallucinogen at the Passover seder, but also the movie contains wonderful spiritual teachings.”   He adds, “[Our dream: that] it would become the Jewish, ‘It's a Wonderful Life,' the movie that people watch every year.”   Salvador Litvak shares the backstories behind “When Do We Eat?” and his new Jewish joke book. the connections between Judaism and food, and his recipe for Sal-mon. He also talks about creating The Accidental Talmudist, how that community embraced his Passover classic film aka “My Big Fat Jewish Seder.”    “My mom always used to say there's two kinds of people: those who get into conversations in the checkout line at the supermarket and those who don't,” Litvak says. “We are [the first] kind.”   Learn more at SalvadorLitvak.com, AccidentalTalmudist.org, and GunsandMosesMovie.com.

We have no idea what we're accomplishing on Seder night. Our sages tell us that it's Hashem's favorite night of the year. The entire Passover Seder is about gratitude. There's an individual message for everyone in the family as well as our guests. No one is left out.

Passover Seder

Jeffrey D. and Ted continue their in-depth discussion of Passover, including the Passover Seder, where Yeshua (Jesus) established Communion. The Feast of Passover begins at sundown on Saturday, April 12 this year. Our co-hosts are conducting in-person Passover Seders at various locations this year. Be sure to check out their schedules at messianicminutes.com

B"H Dayenu — it would have been enough. In this video, we dive into the meaning behind this powerful song from the Passover Seder. It's more than a catchy tune — it's a deep expression of gratitude. Dayenu teaches us to appreciate every step of the journey: from the Exodus, to receiving the Torah, to entering the Land of Israel. Each stage is a miracle. Each process is a gift. Let's carry that mindset with us — not just on Pesach, but every day. To watch Torah Thoughts in video format, click HERE Subscribe to the Torah Thoughts BLOG for exclusive written content!

Welcome to our special Passover episode, where we explore the profound layers of the Passover Seder, a ceremony that beautifully encapsulates over three millennia of Jewish history and identity. In this episode, we discuss the fifteen steps of the Seder, from Kiddush to the festive meal, and delve into the powerful narratives and symbols that connect us to our ancestors.We share a humorous yet insightful exchange between a rabbi and an astrophysics professor, which cleverly illustrates the depth of Talmudic study compared to the simplification of complex ideas. The conversation highlights how Jewish traditions and teachings are much more than historical records; they are vibrant memories passed down through generations, forming a continuous link back to the Exodus from Egypt.We reflect on how the presence of multiple generations at the Seder table turns these historical events into a vivid collective memory, extending back hundreds of years and forward into future gatherings. This episode also touches on the intriguing absence of certain words in Biblical Hebrew, such as "history," which is replaced with "memory" — a concept deeply ingrained in Jewish culture.Join us as we discuss how the Passover Seder transcends mere historical recounting, acting instead as a dynamic memory that engages with the past as a living part of our present and future. We conclude with a powerful message on transforming pain into blessing, inspired by the life of Henrietta Szold, who turned personal hardship into a legacy of love and humanitarianism.Main Takeaways:The Seder as a Link Across Time: The Passover Seder is not just a ritual but a bridge connecting 3,300 years of Jewish history through family stories and traditions passed down through generations.Memory Over History: The episode explores why the Hebrew language prefers the term "memory" over "history," emphasizing personal and collective identity formation through remembered experiences rather than impersonal historical events.Cultural Insights: A look at how the absence of certain words in Hebrew, like "history" and "civility," reflects deeper cultural values, with "memory" (zachor) and "chutzpah" taking prominent roles.Humor and Wisdom: The interaction between the rabbi and the professor serves as a metaphor for the depth and complexity of Jewish teachings and the importance of continual learning and interpretation.Transforming Pain into Blessing: Inspired by Henrietta Szold's story, the episode underscores a fundamental Jewish principle of using persoSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Here's the schedule of Bible study podcasts (audio and video) coming soon.  One lesson per day starting on April 12th through April 20, Resurrection Sunday.  Remember.  Consider downloading the lessons.  You can find the download button at the end of each podcast before you actually hit the play button.   LESSON 1 APRIL 12 Did the Triumphal Entry of Jesus happen on a Sunday?  Could it have been a Monday? Does the TORAH hint at this event?  What year did this happen, 33 A.D. (traditional man made date) or 30 A.D.?  LESSON 2 APRIL 13 The TORAH in Exodus 12 commands fathers on a precise day of the month to find the perfect male lamb that would be sacrificed by each father on 4 days later.  Jews then in Jesus' day know this.  Is there some connection to “Palm Sunday” and this Torah law? LESSON 3 APRIL 14 The first Passover meal occurred in Egypt in 1446 B.C.  It seems the Lord used the Passover meal and certain key elements as a polemic against the gods of Egypt.  Once we get it, it has huge applications for us in the pagan culture we live in today. LESSON 4 APRIL 15 Some argue that Jesus' Last Supper was a Passover Seder.  Some say the Last Supper had no connection to a Seder.  But Jesus' Last Supper was the night before the evening when the Hebrews were to have the Passover meal.  On top of that Jewish sources shows unequivocally shows there was NO Seder in Jesus' day.  There was a Passover meal but not a Seder.   LESSON 5 APRIL 16 God comes to us and provides the WAY back to Himself via the Cross and the Lamb of God. As Paul teaches without the Resurrection all is meaningless.  So, this was the plan of the Lord from ages past.  It was now FINISHED.  The beginning was completed.  The Resurrection was the End of the Beginning. LESSON 6 APRIL 17 There is no Bible verse that says that Jesus is the Passover Lamb!  If your Bible says He is the Passover Lamb it is a proven mistranslation.  Jesus is the Lamb, He is the Lamb of God.  There is a significant difference between the Passover Lamb and the Lamb of God.  It is critical that we understand the difference.  It is critical to see that יהוה Yahvay, the Lord, used the 1st Passover as a model for the Passover of Messiah. LESSON 7 APRIL 18 There is no garden of Gethsemane.  No way.  But, there is a Gethsemane.  Gethsemane is a Greek word that comes from the Hebrew.  Wait till you see what a Gethsemane actually is!  LESSON 8 APRIL 19 (three short videos) The Bible says in ENGLISH that יהוה Yahvay, Adonai the LORD, hardened Pharaoh's heart.  Huh?  How can that be?  Did God take away Pharaoh's free will?  The problem is the text in English.  A great credible Jewish scholar, a Hebrew scholar, shows that the LORD did not harden Pharaoh's heart.  The LORD gave Pharaoh one chance after another.  יהוה Yahvay never took away his free will.  Video 1 is 27 minutes and video 2 is 14 minutes and video 3 is 19 minutes.   LESSON 9 APRIL 20 The Passover of Jesus was the End of the Beginning.  The way was open again back to the Father.  Through the Cross our sins can be totally forgiven and our debt to sin paid if we have Jesus as Lord.  But, God connects the Resurrection, the End of the Beginning, to the feast of Shavuot or Pentecost.  We'll see that Shavuot or Pentecost is the Beginning of the End – it is the time of the Wheat Harvest.

The Passover Seder isn't just a tradition....it's an invitation. Not just for guests around your table, but for you. An invitation to show up emotionally, spiritually, and vulnerably. This class explores five Seder moments that, when fully embraced, can transform your night from ritual to revolution.We'll journey from the cracked matzah to the humble matzah, from our collective memory to our personal growth, from the bitterness of trauma to the sweetness of faith. Discover why incompletion is a gift, how humility is the key to freedom, and why the Seder might just be history's original group therapy session.5 Key Takeaways:Invite Yourself In The opening words of the Seder aren't about inviting others—they're about inviting yourself. Your full, vulnerable, questioning, present self. This is your moment to enter the story, not as a spectator, but as the protagonist.Celebrate What's Broken Yachatz teaches that brokenness isn't a defect—it's a doorway. By honoring what's missing, we create space for growth, connection, and Divine presence. Real healing begins when we stop pretending to be whole.You Are Part of a 3,337-Year Legacy While other civilizations forget, we remember. The power of the Seder is memory with mission: to remind us that no matter where we are, freedom is always the next chapter if we have the courage to write it.Humility is Freedom's Secret Ingredient Matzah isn't just flat—it's freeing. The opposite of ego isn't weakness; it's openness. Freedom requires the courage to say, “Maybe I don't know everything.” That humility invites new beginnings.Freedom Begins in the Heart Egypt isn't just a place—it's a mindset. It's the voice that says, “This is how it's always been.” But G-d gave us a hidden “escape hatch”—a shift in perception, a crack of hope, a step toward healing. Your freedom begins when you stop being “right” and start being real.#Passover #seder #freedom #matzah #Jewish #Judaism #pesachPassover Seder, Freedom, Matzah, Humility, Jewish Identity, Vulnerability, Brokenness, Personal Growth, Group Therapy, Jewish Memory, Healing, Transformation, Ego, Yachatz, Exodus, Egypt, Legacy, Soul WorkSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?
