"Passover Decoded," an infographic eBook by the team at Kabbalah.info, provides concise Passover definitions of terms and concepts in the Passover story. The goal of presenting these deeper Passover definitions is to show how Passover is not merely an historical event of people, places and actions that took place thousands of years ago. Instead, Passover is a spiritual process that every person can go through right now, in one's attitude toward others. From being in a mindstate of unfounded hatred (Egypt), one can exit that state (Exodus from Egypt) and enter a state of unbounded solidarity and love (the land of Israel), through which, among those who achieve that solidarity and love became defined as "a nation" (Israel), The wisdom of Kabbalah describes these deeper, spiritual processes taking place behind all the Bible stories. Passover is one of the major holidays in the Bible that encompasses the entire spiritual process: from exiting one's egoism (the control of Pharaoh), learning how to apply solidarity and unity (following Moses), and entering a state of solidarity and love (entering the land of Israel). These concepts and more are described in the "Passover Decoded" infographic eBook.

7. What is Passover?
Passover means passing from one state of mind to another: from unfounded hatred to unbounded
solidarity and love.
Why do we need Passover?
We need to “pass over” to a state of unbounded solidarity and love in order to cease the conflicts,
wars, distrust and indifference that emerge from a state of disunity. United “as one man with one
heart” is the discovery of a much better, peaceful, caring and harmonious life.
What do I do to make this Passover happen?
You can start by using this holiday of Passover as an opportunity where everyone is all together
for this significant occasion. Decide to put all past hatred in one big pile, as high as Mount Sinai, and
climb above it, meeting everyone together “as one man with one heart” at the summit.
To hold such a decision, however, requires a supportive environment of other people who also aspire
to unite above hatred, as well as learning guides and materials.
