===Christian Seders=== {{See also|Christian observance of Passover}} Some [[Christians]], especially but not only [[Evangelicalism|Evangelical Protestants]], have recently{{Timeframe?|date=March 2022}} taken great interest in performing Seders according to the ancient rubric. Many churches host Seders, usually adding a Messianic Christian Passover message, and many times inviting [[Messianic Jew]]s to lead and teach on it. The [[Gospels]] place the [[Last Supper]] at Passover, so that some Christians have interpreted it as a Seder; in consequence some Christian Seders are on [[Maundy Thursday]] as part of commemorating the Last Supper.<ref name="Reynolds2021">{{cite journal |last1=Reynolds |first1=Simon |title=Why the Church should not appropriate the Seder |journal=[[Church Times]] |date=9 April 2021 |url=https://www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2021/9-april/comment/opinion/why-the-church-should-not-appropriate-the-seder |access-date=13 March 2022 |location=London}}</ref> Many Christians cite the meal as a way to connect with the heritage of their own religion and to see how the practices of the ancient world are still relevant to Christianity today.<ref name="worldwide">{{cite web|url=http://wwrn.org/articles/21173/?&place=united-states§ion=judaism |title=WorldWide Religious News-Some Jews see trespass in Christian Seders |access-date=2013-03-16}}</ref> However, the current form of the Passover Seder dates from the [[Rabbinic Judaism|Rabbinic]] period, after Christianity and Judaism had already [[Split of early Christianity and Judaism|gone their separate ways]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2006-04-11|title=The Origins of the Seder|url=https://schechter.edu/the-origins-of-the-seder/|access-date=2021-02-25|website=The Schechter Institutes}}</ref> Some Jews and Christians consider Christian Seders an inappropriate [[cultural appropriation]] of Jewish ritual for non-Jewish purposes.<ref name="Reynolds2021"/><ref name="worldwide" /><ref>{{cite web|title=Why Are Christians Starting To Have Passover Seders?|date=March 26, 2018|last=Feder|first=Shira|publisher=[[The Forward]]|access-date=February 25, 2021|url=https://forward.com/food/397452/why-are-christians-starting-to-have-passover-seders/}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://politicsslashletters.org/features/why-is-this-night-different-the-problem-of-the-christian-seder/|website=Politics/Letters|title=Why is this Night Different?
