12 Why is this night different from all other nights?
On all other nights, we eat either unleavened or leavened bread, but tonight we eat only unleavened bread?
On all other nights, we eat all kinds of vegetables, but tonight, we eat only bitter herbs?
On all other nights, we do not dip [our food] even once, but tonight we dip twice?
On all other nights, we eat either sitting or reclining, but tonight we only recline?

17 Last year I was invited to a friend's seder.  She was all upset.  Her motza balls could be used for hockey pucks.  She has spent the entire year trying to figure out why her great grand mother's motza balls were so light and fluffy and why hers could be used as a hockey puck.  She still hasn't found the answer.  But, apprently, her family took away hosting the seder and put it back at her parent's house until she does....lol

27 This is one thing you can blame on the Joos!

The Bible. 

If Joos didn't exist, then the Bible doesn't.

So Christians and Joos only  have only one problem, Jesus.

He was a Joo, we think he was the real "ONE" they are still waiting.

Happy holy week. 

Did I mention, the Mohammedans?  No, it is not a real religion.

It's not how Christians celebrate Easter.  You know the difference, yes?

Posted by: SantaRosaStan at March 29, 2010 04:35 PM (JrRME)

39 I remember when I was a kid, passover and easter came at the same time and everyone had off from school for a little vacation and everyone was happy.  Now, a lot of people aren't getting Easter week or Easter off.  And Good Friday is no longer being given the deference it was when I was a kid.  So sad.

The differences in the rules between the Hebrew and Gregorian cycles results in Passover falling about a month after Easter in three years of the 19-year cycle.

Posted by: t-bird at March 29, 2010 04:39 PM (2esyv)

53 Sharrukin: Shank bone symbolism: (by way of Google) A piece of roasted meat represents the lamb that was the special Paschal sacrifice on the eve of the exodus from Egypt, and annually, on the afternoon before Passover, in the Holy Temple. Since we can't offer the Paschal sacrifice in the absence of the Holy Temple, we take care to use something that is relatively dissimilar to the actual offering. Accordingly, many communities have the custom to use a roasted chicken neck or the like. Preparation: Roast neck on all sides over an open fire on the stove. Afterwards, some have the custom to remove the majority of the meat of the neck. Role in the Seder: The shank bone is not eaten. After the meal it is refrigerated, and used a second time on the Seder plate the following night.

I just sent her an email with a copy of this post and a link.  Thanks for the advice I'm sure she will appreciate it.  I will let you know tomorrow morning what she says.

I taught her how to make fresh pasta....but I don't know about Jewish cooking but she did learn pasta and she is usually a good cook which is why this is so frustrating to her.

Ludicrous, You understand that the bunny and the eggs are pagan symbols that were absorbed into Christianity to make the locals happy? Same with the Christmas tree, the Yule log, holly, wreaths, etc.? We celebrate the death and resurrection (not rebirth) of our God with readings, psalms, and a supper where we commemorate the death of the lamb of God.

I think that it is important to understand Judiasm to understand Christianity.

77 Passover, this year, took on a much more immediate tinge.  I told my Israeli friends the same thing last year, but they didn't believe me.  Now, they know.

In other news, I just saw the census ad saying that we need to fill out the census to "know how many hospitals we need".  Man, the feral government's takeover of the health care industry is really moving apace.  I wasn't aware that the federal government was even in the business of determining the number of hospitals necessary ...  Silly me.  Huh?

80 btw, the shankbone represents the "pesah" (paschal lamb) that was sacrificed the night before the Jews left egypt. It's where they got the blood to wipe on the doorposts so that the angel of death would "pass over" their huts when it was on it's mission to smite the firstborn males. saltwater represents tears charoset represents mortar used to make bricks horseradish represents bitterness parsley represents spring, it's dipped in the saltwater during the seder egg represents the festival offering made during the time when the temple stood in Jerusalem

My family had a quirky sense of humor and sometimes if one of us accidentally left the door open and got called on it we'd say "Oh, that's for Elijah" or if we set out too many place settings etc. I used to attend Seder dinners during my childhood at my Episcopal church. For some reason, Episcopalians love to have Seder dinners.

91 54 The Catholics used the Jewish calendar since they were all jews to start--the apostles and the 3000 converts at Pentacost. Pentacost, the birthday of the Church, was a jewish holiday commemorating 40 days after Passover, that's why the apostles and women were gathered in the upper room. The last supper was the passover seder and Jesus entered Jerusalem to celebrate passover. The symbolism of the slain lamb as a sacrifice at the time of passover was part of the prophesy. I'm guessing that the Jewish calendar held until constantine and then things got out of sync when the rome the pagan state became rome the catholic state.

Dude, Episcopalians donÂ’t drink cheap wine, at least not where IÂ’m from. But, yeah, you are probably right; any excuse to drink is a good one with that crowd.

 

One of the priests at our church was a recovering alcoholic, strangely he always seemed to pour way more communion wine than was needed, then the poor man would have to finish it off, it being consecrated and allÂ…

109 The Catholics used the Jewish calendar since they were all jews to start--the apostles and the 3000 converts at Pentacost. Pentacost, the birthday of the Church, was a jewish holiday commemorating 40 days after Passover, that's why the apostles and women were gathered in the upper room. The last supper was the passover seder and Jesus entered Jerusalem to celebrate passover. The symbolism of the slain lamb as a sacrifice at the time of passover was part of the prophesy. I'm guessing that the Jewish calendar held until constantine and then things got out of sync when the rome the pagan state became rome the catholic state.

People are still going to be finding suprising goodies in that insane legislation years and years and years from now (on the off chance that the US remains intact and this gargantuan clusterfuck isn't repealed). 

And, off-topic a bit, if I hear one more Republican talk about how "there are some good things in this legislation" I think I'm going to puke.  If these people don't have the guts to just say that it all needs to be trashed - period - then the game is all over.

As I've been saying, it's amazing that the dems have pulled this same insane legislative crime twice in less than a year - forcing people to vote for (and pass) immense legislation that no one has bothered to even have examined beforehand.  One would have thought that the dems would have considered themselves lucky to barely get away with pulling this coup (which is what it is, essentially) with the Porkulus, but to follow the same template for health scare ... Man.  Insanity like I've never seen before.

144 -I think the Eastern Orthodox still adhere to the Jewish calendar and set their Easter accordingly.  It's related to the reason tsarist Russia still used a Julian calendar IIRC

Posted by: logprof at March 29, 2010 08:59 PM (Mmw0q)

The Orthodox still adhere to the Julian Calendar created under the reign of Julius Caesar.  It's accurate, but because they missed the leap year routine a little, the Julian has slipped 13 days in the last 2000 years.  Pope Gregory realized this, and had the problem corrected.  The Eastern Church reacted with a collective "Go fuck yourself, you Papist shitball."  A view we adhere to today.

The Julian is off 13 days.  Today is March 18, Julian.  Well, since we all know that the Vernal Equinox is March 21, it's 3 days until spring begins.  Who are you going to believe?  Me or the heavens?  Look back here.  For real.

So this year Easter and Pascha (Orthodox Easter, derived from the Hebrew pesach, or Passover), fall on the same Sunday, and they do again next year.  In many years "Easter" goes completely unnoticed in Orthodox households.  Because their calendars are wrong.

Shut up, he said.

Does this make any sense whatsoever?

" Korean War mine 'sunk' South Korean navy ship "

Posted by: Garbonzo the Garrulous at March 29, 2010 08:51 PM (w8ddH)

Yes, it makes sense.  Remember the espisode of Gilligans Island?

The Inchon landings were a real ball-slapping for the NKs; they went from controlling almost the entire Korean Peninsula to controlling almost none of it.  Then China stepped in. But Kim Il Sung learned, and probably dropped many mines.

Drop 2000 mines, maybe more, in some area of the coast of North Korea.  By drop, I mean push a mine off the back of a ship doing 10knots or so, and expect the thing to deploy properly.  Usually this means, once tossed overboard, dropping an anchor of some sort to the sea floor, then adjusting depth as selected. Some go all the way down, then let the mine float up to a selected depth.  Some don't work right, some don't work at all, some drift too far before activating, ......

Now, wait a few years.  There are some farily serious tides in the area.  Google Inchon to get details.

Now go sweep the area.  Odds are that not all will be found.  This means that there are some still "there", wherever "there" is (200 yards away; 2 miles away), 60 years and many tides later.

Perhaps this one (assuming the "mine" explanation) had been floating around for the last 60 years, out of the shipping lanes. But a slight tidal or current change moved it to the path of the S.Korean ship.  Perhaps it had been there all along with the detonator stuck, but the ship hit it just right.

Sure, other people have a 'Golden Warranty', but you can't trust those Fly-By-Nite operations like the Toltecs or Incans.  They'll gild a turd and sell it to their mother as a 'Guarantee'. Fuckin' heathens...and where are they now?  Took all that money and split is what they did...had an Uncle who bought a subscription to the Toltec Calendar some years back.  Totecs split, and he's missed his anniversary five years running!

Well not me.  My Shit is Solid Gold and my word is my buisness. If it's not good, buisness ain't good neither. Know what I'm saying?

 What I am offering is the finest in Pre-Columbus Calendar Technology.  Pure Mesoamerican stuff.  Once you go Vigesimal you'll wonder how you ever knew what day was next or where Venus was in the morning sky.

Best part is, you only need two.

What do you say?

176 I'd have a beer with Israel.  Not with Saudi Arabia, though.  That's just the way I roll.

180 Shalom Aleichem moron(ette)s.
 Â“peace unto you.”
You are the best.

You know if we had just made a left turn instead of a right turn we would have all the oil.  Can't read a map worth shit, that's why we wandered for forty years.

181 Just got back from a seder and celebration of my birthday.  Do you know what it's been like to have most of my b'days commemorated with a cake made out of farking MATZOH MEAL!?!

Ah, the sufferings of the Jewish people...

Happy Passover to my fellow Hebes.

Happy Birthday!!! My soon to be 8 year old can feel your pain. His birthday is Good Friday and he wants to go to Bugaboo Creek for dinner.  Had to explain we'd be celebrating Saturday ... needless to say he's not happy about being a Christian this year!!!!

no time to read everything, but remember this: "Proclaim Liberty throughout the land." (Leviticus Chap 25, according to Google, which must, we all know be owned by the Jooze..)

I enjoyed my all-Republican seder with my family and relatives. No dumbasses to endure, thankfully.

My wife's family has been in the insurance business for a hundred years out here, and they are pissed at Hussein.

My birthday has fallen on Good Friday a number of times.  It's hard for a Greek Catholic -- not only do we fast from meat, we fast from eggs and dairy products.  So you can forget having a cake.

Holy Saturday is also a no meat day -- at least until after Resurrection Matins.

Of course, Pascha is the big payoff.  Ham, kielbasa, homemade bread, homemade cheese, and pickled eggs.  Do NOT schedule a cholesterol test during Bright Week.

191 "Paul's great weakness is when he start talking about foreign policy.  ... But "pull all troops, anywhere abroad back home because they make the Muslims cranky?" Err, nooo'kay. "

When Hamas took over in Gaza, RP was one of only a handful of Congressmen (the rest were mostly far-left moonbat Dems) to vote against cutting off funds to them.  Hard to see how that vote is justified on libertarian or isolationist grounds, or any reason other than bristling hostility to the existence of Israel.

192 happy, um, ok look.... i don't know exactly what's going on but I hope ya'll have a good one.

related note: lots of random hostility towards Israel lately from my 'progressive' friends.

not too BONED UP on the issues (hehehehehe boned up), but I got the basics down and I'm as baffled as a blind man in a fish store.

cannot understand wtf is going on. had one guy try and explain the wonder that is Egyptian democracy. seriously.

194 I know it's a tad early, but I'd like to wish my Christian right wing colleagues a blessed Easter.  (And the left wing ones, too--it's too important a holy day to discriminate).

195 To our Jewish brethren (we know only 20 percent of them voted against Obama) we wish you: l'shanah haba'ah birushalayim-Next year in Jerusalem.

To the Congressional democraps, you will soon be tasting the bitter herbs after you get shanked from Congress this Nov. 2. That will be another joyous Exodus.
