APRIL - MAY: Months full of Symbolism

By Sarah Ozacky-Lazar

ISRAEL- On the night of April 23rd all Jews around the world are united by sitting with their families around the table for a ceremony called “seder” (order) in which they tell the story of the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to the land of Israel thousands of years ago – the story of getting out from slavery to liberation, a journey which took them 40 years of wondering in the Sinai desert during which they got the torah (the bible) with its ten commandments, that later became a universal moral lesson to the entire humanity.
