Pesach is the Hebrew name for the pilgrimage festival of Passover, one of the three great pilgrimage festivals of Judaism. The others are Shavuot (Pentecost or the Feast of Weeks) and Succot (the Feast of Booths). Before the year 70, when the Temple still stood in Jerusalem, all Jews were supposed to make a pilgrimage to the Temple for each of these festivals. Since the destruction of the Temple, these have become synagogue and (particularly Passover and Succot) home-centered festivals. Pesach, in particular, is a festival celebrating the spring barley harvest and also a time to re-enact the exodus from Egypt so that every Jew may live as if he or she had personally been redeemed from Egyptian bondage.
