Best Answer

A Jewish Seder is celebrating the holiday of Pesah, or Passover. This is when the story of how Moses let us out of Egypt is told. There is probably a Wiki page on Passover.

Answer

The word 'seder' means 'order'. It refers to the religious service held in the home on the first night of Passover (in Israel) and the first two nights of Passover (outside of Israel). During the seder, the story of the Israelites' escape from slavery in Egypt is retold. The religious service includes a celebratory dinner.

When was the first ver mass?

the last supper was the first massAnswer 2 - leaving the above as one perspective, another is that the "Last Supper" was a Passover Sedar. Yehoshua (Jesus) was Jewish, it was his tradition to gather/convocate for a Sedar in honor of Passover. Reading Matthew 26:17 on will show that this gathering was specifically for the Feast of Unleavened bread. During the dinner, Messiah broke bread (likely more of a matzo- a flat unleavened bread) and declared it to be his body which was to be broken. When he took the cup of wine and declared it to be his blood, many Hebrew Rooted Christians (or Messianic Jews) believe this to be the third of 4 cups which were drank during a Sedar. The 3rd cup was the cup of redemption, which Yehoshua did not drink of and won't until he returns to redeem his people.
