My Way News - On Passover, Israel concerned over world standing
My Way News reports: "The holiday begins Monday night with a traditional seder meal. Extended families typically gather and retell the story of the exodus. The biblical story recounts that God killed the first-born of Egypt after the pharaoh refused to release the children of Israel from bondage, but 'passed over' the houses of the Hebrews. After that divine blow, the pharaoh gave in and let the Hebrews go. They were then given the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai and wandered in the desert for 40 years before arriving in the Land of Israel, according to the Bible."

Comment: It's ironic that they celebrate this holy feast while at the same time supporting a national policy to give to others the land that God gave them.
