The highlight of Passover is the Seder meal. During the Seder, we keep the essential mitzva and customs of handing Jewish traditions down to the next generation, with the ceremony of reading the Passover Haggadah which retells the events of the Exodus at length.

This meal 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, chapter 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, observe in common.

You don't need to say anything. If you wish to provide a holiday greeting, the least offensive to the majority of Jews is a simply 'Happy Holidays'. If it happens to be Channukah at the time, 'Happy Hanukkah!' is an appropriate wish.

Good Pesach.

(The ch sounds like the ch in the middle of "School," not like the ch in "Chime.")
