Episode 10: The Passover Seder: Bitter Herbs, Matzah, and the Passover Lamb

In this episode, Jon and James continue their conversation on the feast of Passover. They discuss the significance of the bitter herbs, such as parsley and horseradish, which represent the bitterness of the Israelites' slavery in Egypt. They also explore the meaning of matzah, the unleavened bread, and its connection to sin and redemption. The hidden afikomen, a piece of matzah, symbolizes the hidden nature of the Messiah. The lamb shank on the Seder plate represents the sacrificial lamb and the blood that protected the Israelites from the plague of the firstborn. Throughout the discussion, Jon and James emphasize the joy and celebration that should accompany the Passover Seder.
