In the cold rain and high winds last Friday, a group of children and families found warmth around an outdoor fire at the Chabad Jewish Center of Solon, where the burning of the chametz took place just before Passover.
Within the fire were small pieces of leavened bread, forbidden for consumption during the eight-day holiday that began at sundown on March 27 and ends at sundown on Sunday.
âItâs all about family,â Rabbi Zushe Greenberg said of the meaning of Passover, which is one of the major Jewish holidays and represents liberation of the Jewish slaves from bondage in ancient Egypt.
