Passover begins at sunset on Monday, March 29 and lasts a week. (For those who are not Jewish, you might want to know that the first two days of Passover are full-fledged, no-work-allowed holiday days. The subsequent four days are Chol Hamoed, when work is allowed, albeit with restrictions. Chol Hamoed is followed by another two full holiday days.) I hope everyone who celebrates has a happy (and kosher, if that is your way) Passover.Although in English we say Happy Easter for the feast of the resurrection that many Christians will celebrate next Sunday, in many languages the greeting is closer to the Hebrew for Passover (pesach). [Spanish: Felices pascuas floridas; French: Joyeuses Pâques; Italian: Buona Pasqua.]
So if you celebrate Easter, this is an early wish for your happy day as well and for Holy Week for those who began with Palm Sunday yesterday.
