Students at Temple B'nai Abraham Learn How to Make Matzah for Passover

LIVINGSTON, NJ - The students of the Early School and Jewish Learning Program (JLP) of Temple B’nai Abraham (TBA) have been enjoying learning about the upcoming holiday of Passover, which begins at sunset on Monday, April 14, and ends at nightfall on Tuesday, April 22.

Recently, the students took part in the hands-on experience of making Matzah, which is unleavened bread and is one of the key symbols of this Jewish holiday. The students were involved in the entire Matzah-making process—from separating the chaff from the grain, collecting the grain into a hand-driven wheat mill and grinding it into flour, to kneading, rolling and baking the dough into a handmade Matzah. They did this all under the guidance and auspices of The Living Legacy, who set up the “Matzah Bakery” at the temple.
