Netflix, Hulu Passover Movies, Episodes 2018: 8 Holiday Themed Specials To Stream

One of the most sacred holidays of the Jewish faith is upon us, meaning that while Christian counterparts honor the religious significance of Easter, those practicing Judaism will be focused on the eight-day celebration of Passover.

Passover, a celebration which commemorates the story of the Israelites' departure from ancient Egypt through the help of the prophet Moses, consists of several traditions. However, while sitting down for a special meal known as a Seder, among other things, there may be some other ways to celebrate this important moment in Jewish heritage.
