Members of Philadelphia's Jewish community gathered Friday to recognize Passover with a special seder in Society Hill to reflect on Jewish people trapped in Ukraine.
Rabbi Menachem Schmidt hosted Seder dinner at B’nai Abraham Chabad Friday night as part of the "Fill an extra Seder seat" campaign to stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
Passover is the celebration of the emancipation of the Jewish people from slavery in Egypt. At Seder, the story is retold with food, wine and reflection. "One of my best friend’s sister was there running a center just like this one. They left with the clothes on their back, drove for five days, ate nothing. The stories are harrowing," Rabbi Schmidt said.
