Three essential ritual foods are included in the meals described for the ancient Passover (Exodus) and in contemporary Passover Seders (e.g., the Jewish Federation Passover Haggadah): roasted lamb, bitter herbs, and unleavened bread. Your task is to investigate both sources for references to these three food items and compare how each is described.
Use the format Question - Evidence - Conclusion to streamline your research and maintain clarity in your paper.
Question: How does the description of these three food items in the modern Passover compare to their description in the Exodus? Does any change suggest a change in the meaning of the Passover for those celebrating it?
Evidence: Gather your Evidence from the following two Primary Source texts. This will be the most time-consuming part of your research and will be reflected in the body of your paper.
Exod 12:1-13:10
Jewish Federations, ed., Passover Haggadah: A Guide to the Seder
Conclusion: What Conclusion (answer to the Question) does your Evidence point to? Make sure to connect your Evidence explicitly to your Conclusions in the paper.
Your sources:
Primary sources:
Your Bible. (for Bibliographic format, check the Required Books listing in your Syllabus; and the CMS-17 Style Guide (>S). Bring questions.
Jewish Federations of North America, ed. The Passover Haggadah: A Guide to the Seder. (for Bibliography, check the entry at the link in >Unit 1 >R)
Secondary sources:
Gwynne, Chs. 7.6 & 9.6, & other sections assigned for this Unit if needed. Articles and charts posted in >Unit 1 >R if needed
Outside sources: None needed. Consult the instructor in advance regarding additional sources to avoid a grade penalty.
Notes on Analyzing the Evidence:
A Concordance of the Bible or a word search in an e-version will speed up your research. Keep track of alternative terms for the same item. Ask if you want help.
Some questions to use as you research these ritual foods:
How is each described?
Is it prepared in any particular way?
When is it eaten?
With what?
Could this food have everyday significance in the life of the Israelites?
Are there any statements that specify its meaning or purpose in the Passover meal?
Connecting Evidence to analysis, and the Conclusion, may be managed in part using your Footnotes documenting the sources for your points. (Footnotes Indicate book, chapter, and verse/article numbers where your information can be found and checked. The bibliography is required at the end-see CMS-17 Style Guides in >S; no other format is (acceptable).
