Good Friday & Passover Eve, Nisan 14

Remembering both on a blessed collide of calendars.

Bitter herbs with horseradish dug from the garden, 

spring asparagus representing hard labor before deliverance, 

a hard boiled egg as a peace offering to be dipped in the salt tears, 

apple and nut charoset representing the bricks and mortar of slave labor 

before fleeing with the unleavened bread. 

The shank in the oven represents the atonement sacrifice, 

and we remember that the blood of the lamb was shed for our Passover.
