Second Passover

Second Passover, also known as Pesach Sheni, is observed on the 14th of Iyar, a month after the 14th of Nisan. This holiday allows individuals who missed the first Passover to participate in the celebrations. Jews commemorate Second Passover with the same traditions as the initial Passover, including roasted meat, matzo, and bitter herbs. The significance of Second Passover lies in providing a second opportunity for those who couldn’t observe the first Passover.Devout Jews consider this event important, as it was initiated by early Jews and symbolizes the concept of a second chance.
