[00:05.36]Some people depend on the calendar to tell them when spring has arrived.
[00:11.00]But many others know spring is here because it is time to celebrate the religious holidays of Passover and Easter.

[00:30.48]The holiday also celebrates the real beginning of the Jewish nation.
[00:36.18]And it represents the first for freedom by an oppressed2 group of people.
[00:42.24]Easter is the day when Christians4 believe that Jesus Christ3 rose from the dead.
[00:48.67]Most Christians believe Jesus was sent to earth to save humans from wrongdoing, and to give them everlasting5 life.
[00:58.17]Passover is one of the oldest holidays in the world.

[01:06.74]It begins at sundown on the fourteenth day of the Jewish month of Nisan.
[01:13.51]This year, Jews begin celebrating the holiday on April Nineteenth.
[01:19.78]The book of Exodus6 in the Hebrew Bible--the Jewish holy book--tells the Passover story.
[01:27.82]The Israelites were slaves in Egypt.

[01:40.10]God gave Moses the power to force the Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave.
[01:46.16]God gave Moses the power to strike the Egyptians with terrible events to kill their animals and crops.
[01:54.21]The first Passover took place when Moses warned that God would killthe first-born children of Egypt.
[02:02.80]On that night, the Israelites remained inside their houses.
[02:08.76]They ateflat bread that did not rise, called matzoh.
[02:13.20]And they ate lamb.
[02:14.95]Moses told his people to mark the doors of their houses with the blood of lambs.
[02:22.18]That night, God killed the firstborn Egyptian children.

[02:31.72]He passed over their houses.
[02:34.46]The Egyptian ruler was afraid.
[02:37.49]He told Moses to lead his people out of Egypt'immediately.
[02:42.80]Later, however, Egyptian forces tried to recapture the Israelites.
[02:48.86]But Moses separated the waters of the Red Sea so his people could escape.
[02:55.88]The Egyptian forces drowned in the sea.
[02:59.41]Today, Jewish families still retell the story of being saved from death in Egypt.

[03:38.41]The Seder foods include the traditional matzoh.
[03:43.29]This represents the time when their ancestors left Egypt so quickly they did not have time to let their bread rise.
[03:52.65]A lamb bone represents the blood used to mark their doors.
[03:58.08]Bitter herbs recall8 the hard life of slavery.
