Strong's Lexicon pesach: Passover Original Word: פֶסַח Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: pecach Pronunciation: PEH-sakh Phonetic Spelling: (peh'-sakh) Definition: Passover Meaning: a pretermission, exemption, Passover Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew verb פָּסַח (pasach), meaning "to pass over" or "to spare." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3957 - πάσχα (pascha): The Greek equivalent used in the New Testament to refer to the Passover. Usage: The term "pesach" refers to the Passover, a significant Jewish festival commemorating the Israelites' deliverance from slavery in Egypt. It specifically denotes the sacrificial lamb that was slain and the feast that followed. The Passover is a central event in the Jewish calendar, symbolizing redemption and God's deliverance. Cultural and Historical Background: The Passover originates from the biblical account in Exodus 12, where God instructed the Israelites to sacrifice a lamb and mark their doorposts with its blood. This act was to protect them from the final plague that struck Egypt, the death of the firstborn. The festival is celebrated on the 14th day of the Hebrew month of Nisan and marks the beginning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. It is a time of remembrance and gratitude for God's salvation and faithfulness.
