Passover (Pesach)
Passover is a Jewish holiday that is celebrated in the spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan. Passover is the holiday of Matzot, and the holiday of Freedom. It’s the holiday of Matzot because, that is what the Jewish people ate when they left Egypt. It’s the holiday of freedom, because that’s when the Jews we free of slavery and left Egypt.

    I think the Us could've stopped them from hurting the jews at least try even though they were having a fight with someone else, i still believe they could’ve help them. Because you never know if you try, they didn't try to help them which is sad knowing the jews was being tortured really bad. Because people don't deserve to starve to death and deal with stuff like that, that is really cruel that had happen to the jews and i ain't even have to be jewish to know that was wrong. No one deserves to go through such horrible things like that, and we all know no one would want to go through it. Even women's and little girls were getting rape which is so sick, no one should have to go through such a terrifying thing like that, no one should not be scared…

    Portrait Of Jesus Essay

    • 6 Pages

    The stories of Jesus are represented through the four New Testament Gospels: Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John. Each Gospel emphasizes on particular principles that represent Jesus differently. Jesus is seen as the suffering Messiah in all four Gospels, but each Evangelist puts in his own intake, hence expanding on the original Markan portrait of Jesus. The writers of the Gospels give their own theological assertions, and understandings, which in effect creates a new portrait of Jesus for each Gospel. The Gospel portraits vary and represent a different and evolving view of Jesus’, stories, and traditions over time.…

    Along with material culture, there was an abundance of speech acts throughout my Thanksgiving ritual. I noticed much talk about college and older family members giving college student family members advice about their career decisions. Thus, we participate in the “career advice ritual.” These statements include, “Make sure you attend class and get to know your professors” or “I hope you are participating in extra activities outside of class” or “Make sure that you can get a job out of college with your major choice” or “Do you have a part time job now? If not, get one.”…

    For my first birthday my mom made me a white cake with chocolate frosting. There were pink sprinkles laced along the edge and a prominently placed “1” candle in the middle. I was too young to remember this yummy cake, however, there is photographic evidence that more of the cake made into my hair then ever did into my mouth. What I do remember about my birthday is asking my mom to make me a different kind of cake every year. I could never pick a favorite; there were far too many cakes to pick from.…
