Celebrating Passover
The Messianic Seder
There are no set rules for the basic
order of the seder. Just like with Thanksgiving
dinner, traditions vary among families. In this
chapter is an example of:
1.) a very simple
seder with no specific readings.
2.) a traditional
seder outline. This outline consists of eighteen
traditional steps you can adapt for your family.
3.) an easy-to-use twenty-four page step-by-step
Haggadah*
(you may reproduce for your family's use) that
explains just what to say for each blessing as
you pour the wine, when to eat and drink, and
a list of the Bible verses to read. The leader
simply reads aloud the text from the gray box
on each page as the rest of the group follows
the directions.
4.) a basic
checklist of what you need to have at (or
close by) the dinner table.
The one thing you should not do is get all bound
up in "doing it right" and ruin the
dinner. That would defeat the purpose. Pray and
trust God to lead you. Passover was reintroduced
by Hezekiah in Bible times (Numbers 9). They were
unable to follow every step outlined in Leviticus;
however, God knew their hearts. He had grace towards
them and healed their people.
*The 24 page reproducible Haggadah is included
in the book A
Family Guide to the Biblical Holidays.
An excellent Passover video is available from
Sojourner Ministries. You can view a clip online.
