For those who observe, remember that the new commandment given this night is to love one another.
The #LastSupper ( #MaundyThursday ) is associated with a #Passover #seder observed by Jesus.
Hence, the "1st #fullmoon after the #vernalequinox " part of dating #Easter (Feast of the Resurrection), which occurs on the following Sunday.

Hard pass 
"Whether or not we want to take ownership of #AprilFools’ as #Jews, I do love the idea of marrying its humorous traditions with the #Passover #seder. I am a person who famously hates #pranks, or really being teased in any way, and I usually spend all of #April1 in utter and complete dread.
And yet incorporating pranks into a seder sounds incredibly delightful. It’s a way to make the holiday meal — which can sometimes feel sluggish and long — more fun and engaging for everyone at the table, especially the kids. And it can even add in some tactile educational value (fill the house with actual toy frogs to recreate Egypt under the plagues?? My children would love that!).
With that in mind, I’ve asked my colleagues for their best Passover prank ideas, and they certainly didn’t disappoint. Here are the best Passover pranks for your April Fools’ seder night:"
This year, Passover seder night falls on the most annoying holiday of them all — April Fools’ Day. We don’t know the origins of this incredibly irritating and surprisingly ancient holiday in which people (and now, corporations like Google and Baskin-Robbins) famously prank each other, though in his “Complete Compendium of Universal Knowledge of 1895,” […]
Since Passover is nearly here, it seems time to make this (unfortunately) evergreen announcement.
Real Hebrew for Passover & Beginners ✡️🇮🇱
"Welcoming the stranger - and opening one’s home to guests at the #seder - is a defining theme of #Passover, the eight-day spring holiday known as the #FestivalofFreedom.
That idea echoes through several of this year’s new Passover #childrensbooks, many of which also highlight the #prophetess #Miriam and feature a lively cast of animals - from hopping frogs to chatty parrots - alongside family-centered #holiday scenes.
"Is G-d sending simple sons like me a message by making this year’s first #seder night fall on #AprilFools’ Day? It’s hard to ignore the timing. If anything could tempt a #Jewish #atheist to glance up at the heavens and stroke his chin, it’s a cosmic coincidence like this.
The #SimpleSon has always been my favourite seder sibling. The moniker does him no favours. “Simple” does not mean stupid. A mind devoid of thought. That misses what matters most about him. The #Haggadah’s unfairly maligned halfwit is a misunderstood character who sees the rituals around the table and asks the most important question of all: “What is this?”
