Biblical Jewish Holy Days 4a Importance to Christians, Mottel Baleston, Messianic Passover Seder

Biblical and Post-Biblical Jewish Holy Days and their importance to Christians, a series by Mottel Baleston, Session 4, part A.

Passover is a home celebrated holiday and is increasingly celebrated by Christians. This video discusses the date on the calendar, backgrounds to Passover and ways the Messianic community can make this their own.

This series of 15 classroom sessions were filmed in July 2025 before a group of 35 Messianic Bible students at the Ariel School of Messianic Jewish studies at Camp Shoshanah Conference Campus in upstate New York. The doctrine here is fully in line with an evangelical understanding, with the additional background that the instructor brings as a Jewish believer in Jesus the Jewish Messiah and Savior of all.

Each one-hour session is divided into two parts, A and B, averaging 28 minutes each for easier viewing.
