Unleavened Bread 

Make unleavened bread similar to what the Jews might have eaten during Passover.

Ingredients:
1 c. flour
3 tbsp. sugar
1/3 tsp. salt
1/3 c. shortening
2 - 2 1/2 tbsp. milk

Combine the flour, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening. Add a little bit of milk at a time, and only enough to form in dough. Roll dough (using floured rolling pin) to 1/4" thick. Cut in 1/2" squares. Pierce it with a fork in long rows from top to bottom of each piece. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes until done. (There are many recipes online; this recipe was found at: http://www.haydid.org/unleaven.htm)

Ask:

How did God save His people from death during the last plague - the death of the first born in each family? (Moses told all the people to kill a lamb and put its blood on the top and the sides of the doorposts of their homes. When the angel came through that night, he would “pass over” the homes of the ones who had the blood on their doorposts.) 

God saved His people from death that night and freed them from slavery. God told them to celebrate the Passover every year and REMEMBER His power and love. 

Why did God's people, the Jews, eat only unleavened bread during the Passover? (The Jews did not have time to let their bread rise when they left Egypt, but leaven is also symbolic of sin. They had to rid their houses of all leaven (any kind of yeast) and eat only unleavened bread for seven days during the Passover celebration. )

*They ate other special foods -each full of meaning - during the Passover celebration.
