CCJ Explainer on ‘Christian Seders’ launched on 29 March 2023

Pesach (Passover) and Holy Week are two highly significant festivals for Jews and Christians, respectively, and which overlap next week. At the Council of Christians and Jews, we often encounter Christians who wish to know more about Pesach and its connection to the Easter story (especially in relation to the Last Supper). To help provide some context, we have developed this brief ‘explainer’. As well as highlighting some of the background to Pesach and the Seder meal, we want to explain why we think holding ‘Christian Seders’ is not a good idea for churches.

 

The brief resource, launched today, can be found here.
