Are you a first-born?

Jewish tradition requires that first-borns fast on the day before Passover in acknowledgment of the saving of the Jewish firstborn's lives during the tenth plague in Egypt. However, the Rabbis also decreed that one may be absolved of this fast through engaging in a siyum- a celebration of the completion of a segment of Jewish learning- usually from Mishna or Talmud. If you would like to participate in a siyum this year, please join Rabba Kaya for some learning and eating. No prep necessary, except to get some bagels!
