Passover Seder: Materials for the Passover Seder are shown to four beginning students in the Hebrew school of Beth Israel Community Center by Rabbi Julius Weinberg, spiritual leader of the center. Materials for the home observance are the candelabra, used for every holiday; a cup for Elijah, who is to herald the coming of the Messianic age and signifies future redemption; the matzah cover, which contains three matsoth (unleavened bread) for the meal; the Passover plate, which reposes before the head of the household and contains items used for the Seder, and the Haggadah, a collection of narratives, poems and blessings. During the ceremony, the door is thrown open in the symbolic hope that Elijah will appear. The children are (left to right) Gail Fine, Paul Berlin, Linda Gallatin and Jonathan Veniar, who will be among those to enjoy Passover games.
