Feast of Passover:
The Feast of Passover or Pesach is the most important festival of the Jews, which is celebrated on the 
first day of the Jewish month of Nisan in March/April. The festival is also known by various other names such as Hag-ha-matzoth (‘festival of unleavened bread’), Zema Herutemu (‘season of our freedom’) and Hag-ha-aviv (‘festival of spring’). It is an eight-day festival which commemorates the liberation of the people of Israel from the Pharaohs of Egypt in the 13th century B.C. The beginning of this festival is marked by a Jewish ceremonial feast called Seder. Many Jews undertake a pilgrimage to the temple at Jerusalem during Passover.
The Bene Israel community of Indian Jews have maintained the traditions of the Feast of Passover.
Purim:
‘Purim’ or the ‘Festival of Lots’ is observed on the 14th day in the Jewish month of Adar. It commemorates the first recorded victory of Jews over anti-Semitism. The festivities include prayer meetings, fasts and feasts.
