The entire original Jewish Seder has a lot to teach anyone. Passover is the original Emancipation of man by G-d.

Jesus need not be involved. He wasn’t around yet.

I guess your Jesus is not G-d.

“Those intentions were noble at first and continue to be if they were inviting a rabbi or other knowledgable Jew to explain a Jewish practice, for example,” said Leighton, a Presbyterian minister.

“It becomes an altogether different phenomenon when the purpose is not to understand or appreciate our Jewish neighbors better, but to say ‘We really know what’s going on in the ritual or practice, and Jews would, too, if they only understood the symbolism is pointing to (Jesus).’”

******************************

We had a Messianic Jew come to our church to give a short series of talks about the Seder. And how the various rituals point not only back to their freedom under Moses, but also points forward to freedom in Jesus. I wonder how this pastor would have felt about a Messianic Jew doing a Seder?

I have done a couple of Seders (well, as a Christian - so I suppose we got many things wrong!) and they were very moving.
