The festival that commemorates God's ability to liberate his people is the Passover. It is a holiday that celebrates the freedom of the Hebrew people from Egyptian slavery. The festivity lasts for eight days and consists of a series of homely rites in which the transformation of the Jews is remembered as a free nation and with its own laws. During the festival it is forbidden to eat cereal or yeast foods to emulate the conditions of the Jewish people at the time of the exodus.
