[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also no dairy or pasta/bread/etc.  So brisket and potatoes and a vegetable can be a nice Passover meal.[/quote]

No dairy is not a Pesach prerequisite. [/quote]

Yes that is right (PP here). But you can't do the meat and milk together and a brisket meal is easy to do without dairy.  (eg, many Italian meat dishes have cheese).[/quote]

The idea of dairy & meat is not scripturally based but rather rabbincal rules. In scripture, Avraham served Yahuah & the two angels with him bread & a calf dressed with milk & butter.

See: And Avraham hastened into the tent unto El-Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth. And Avraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hastened to dress it. And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.  BERE'SHIYTH (GENESIS) 18:6-8[/quote]

This is why it's so stupid when people say that they want to have a Seder exactly like Jesus did.  Jesus did not live under Kosher rules.  Jesus did not celebrate Seder like Jews do now.  Judaism was not practiced as we know it.[/quote]

Well, as gross as I think it is for Christians to co-opt seders, Jesus kept Kashrut and other Jewish laws - because he was a Jew. And using the story of Abraham as an example is - odd - a) it would have been before the Torah was given to the Jews; b) Abraham is said to have kept all of the laws of the Torah anyway; c) his guests were non-Jews, so he could serve them whatever; d) one can eat meat almost immediately after eating dairy - so it's unclear whether they ate the dairy as a first course, and then ate the meat, etc. [/quote]
