Passover 2025 Jewish Calendar. Jews in the land of israel and some reform jews in diaspora will end passover on the evening of monday, april 29th. Our passover megasite has tools, guides, insights, stories, inspiration—and just about everything you need to celebrate passover.
Passover (pesach) commemorates the emancipation of the israelites from slavery in ancient egypt. This great miracle is commemorated each year on the shabbat before passover, which is therefore called shabbat hagadol, the great shabbat. (this is one of the rare instances in which a commemorative date in the jewish calendar is set by the day of the week rather than the day of the month.) for more on the war of the firstborn, see here.
