Every Jewish family has unique traditions when it comes to holidays. However‚ every holiday‚ like the Passover‚ starts with an important event in their history.

This story is told in the book of Exodus and comes from the idea that God passed over the houses of the Israelites when the firstborn sons of the Egyptians were killed. The Jews marked their homes with the blood of lambs that were sacrificed to signify that they were the children of God.

PASTOR (PART 3) (THE DECEPTIONS OF CHRISTMAS) Christmas has been with us for a very long time‚ but NOT as long as some think. Many mistakenly believe that the Christian churches have been celebrating Christmas since the church started on the Day of Pentecost. The truth is‚ for the first 400 - 500 years of Christianity there is no mention made of a celebration centering around the "birth" of Jesus.
