Exploration of the Hebrew origins


The Hebrew Easter. The meaning of the ward "Easter" comes from the Hebrew "Paseh" meaning "Passover" it was the annual Feast that the Hebrews remembered the prodigious Passover of the Red Sea, after 530 years of slavery in the land of Egipt freed by Moses. Moses lead the people through the desert towards the land of Palestine, the promised  land with a journey that lasted 40 years with many difficulties.
