Best Answer

The exodus from Egypt.

The highlight of Passover is the Seder meal, called the Passover (Pesach) Seder, which is of great importance in Judaism. It is a 3325-year old continuous tradition that began on the night of the Exodus from Egypt (see Exodus chapter 12), and is fully detailed in our ancient Oral Traditions (Talmud, perek Arvei Pesachim).

The Seder meal is one of those occasions, like Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, that Jews all over the world, Orthodox and non-Orthodox alike, have in common. During the Seder, we keep the essential mitzva and customs of handing Jewish traditions down to the next generation, with the traditional Seder foods and the ceremony of reading the Passover Haggadah which retells the events of the Exodus.

The Lord's Table, first celebrated in conjunction with Passover, is not the same as "last passover." The last Passover has yet to be celebrated; it is still being celebrated to this day. Jesus said He did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill the law. Celebrating and observing Passover was part of the law. The first Lord's Table (Supper) did not put an end to Passover or its observation.
