Was Passover Originally An Ancient Canaanite Ritual Festival Meant To Stop The Winter Rain From Ruining Spring Crops?
Baby lambSpring was a time of great anxiety, since the rains that made their grains grow during the winter were no longer welcome. One particularly nasty storm could decimate wheat and barley fields, knocking down the ripe plants and rotting the grains, and the people would starve. Somehow the ancients had to stop the rains…

 

Ha’aretz reports:

…Nearly all ancient Canaanites – Hebrews included – were farmers, and Passover takes place just at the most critical time of the year, at the end of the growing season, just before the harvest.

This was a time of great anxiety, since the rains that made their grains grow during the winter were no longer welcome. One particularly nasty storm could decimate wheat and barley fields, knocking down the ripe plants and rotting the grains, and the people would starve.

Somehow the ancients had to stop the rains, and this could be the original function of Passover.

The question is, how could eating a roast ruminant stop the rain? For that we have to learn something about the Canaanite religion, which the Hebrews practiced before a proto-Judaism took form.

The Canaanite rain god was Baal. He is mentioned in the Bible time and again, but no details are given about the myths associated with him. To learn about these, we must consult the library found in Ugarit, an ancient Canaanite city on the Mediterranean coast of modern-day Syria.

There we find, written in a language very close to Hebrew, detailed accounts of the mythology and religion of Canaan. Among them is a story which explains why the rain stops each spring and returns every fall: the Canaanite god of death Mot kills Baal, each year anew. Baal spends his summers in the netherworld, Sheol, until being resurrected again in the fall.

“I it was who confronted mightiest Baal, I who made him a lamb like a kid in the breach of my windpipe,” Mot tells Baal’s sister Anath in the poem describing this myth.

Mot’s likening Baal’s killing to eating livestock may be key to understanding the original symbolism of Passover. Perhaps by eating a kid or lamb, the Canaanites were symbolically recreating Mot’s consumption of Baal, hoping that this would stop the rain on time.

This could explain the dictum that the bones of the Passover sacrifice must be kept intact, which the Bible does not explain. Maybe the ancient Hebrews thought that if the bones of the symbolic representation of the Baal were broken, this would adversely affect the resurrection of Baal in the fall, when rains are once again needed.…

There is much in the Jewish religion that derives from Canaanite tradition and this is nothing to be ashamed of. The story of Baal and Mot, while meaningless to us nowadays, was how ancient civilizations explained the seasons. It is not inconcievable that ancient Israelites would marry the old traditions of the Pesach offering, which originate with Canaanite theology, to the story of the Exodus which, after all, did signify a renewal of the covenant and a rejuvenation of life through freedom. The story of the Exodus itself is a real story–it really happened, even if it only happened to a minority of the Israelite people. For the majority, they never experienced the Exodus, but many of them were the descendants of refugees who fled the oppressive and corrupt social structure of the Canaanite city states which themselves were under Egyptian domination. For these clans, the Exodus story was simply a more dramatic version of what their own families went through, so they adopted it as their own much as all Americans have adopted the Mayflower story even though only a tiny minority are descended from the Pilgrim Fathers.

Exodus from Egypt, freedom from slavery, freedom from oppression by the Canaanite city states, springtime, the rejuvenation of life—it all ties in together, with the result that we have something far more profound and meaningful than the original story of Baal and Mot.

The story of Baal and Mot is found in one form or another across the Mediterranean world. It is the annual contest between the God of the Waxing Year, and his brother (or tanist) the God of the Waning Year, for the favours of the Goddess. At the vernal equinox, the former kills the latter; at the autumnal equinox, it’s the other way round.

Also, since the vernal equinox corresponds with the barley harvest, it is usually dedicated to the Goddess in her persona as Alphito, the barley goddess. It was in her honour that David danced on her threshing floor.

The later Greeks recast this myth in terms of the gods of the sky and the underworld, and creaed the story of Persephone.

The equinox was also a time of sacrifice: originally a bull sacrifice, but later a lamb sacrifice. This change was perhaps caused by the precession of the equinox from Taurus into Aries.

Robert Graves derives Pesach from a Canaanite root that means “partridge”, and hence claims that the festival was a fertility festival as well as a sacrificial one. I’m rather doubtful of this.

The truth said…
It’s brought down in the Medrash that our forefathers kept the Torah before it was given, besides for a few.

Avraham Avinu ate Matzos on Pesach, and so did Lot who learned from his uncle, made Matzos when the Angels came to save him.

It could be that they learned from Avraham Avinu and then got distorted like many of the pagan religions from after Noach’s time started worshipping idols.

Please allow me to explain why Shalom Auslander 1.0 (aka Shamrya) recognized that evening in any manner at all. Unable to come to grips with his Kazar-Roman prostitute-Minneapolis mob lineage, rejected by the Lubavitcher Rebbe in his quest to become the Jim Jones of the Ethiopian Jews, he is desperate to maintain some nominal connection to those who just don’t want him around. Only 2 guests? That says a lot. (BTW…Why am I the only one here beside Shmarya who has the guts to use my name?)

APRIL 07, 2015 AT 08:49 AM

No i don’t think it is hypocrisy,it is much deeper than that,deep down in his inner soul,Shmaryah is a believer,he just can’t admit it to himself

Scott won’t answer questions he doesn’t have answers to. You called him out. Why kitniyot and not outright chametz. Why no postings on Chag. In short another classic hypocrite. And wait for it…this year its Shabbat but he probably wouldn’t keep last day albeit still not eat chametz last day as many reform do. Can anyone explain that?

=======================================
At least you are true to yourself,and not believing that judaism was commanded by the word of God you, just don’t bother in keeping all those burdensome commandments,what i don’t understand is Shmaryah’s schizophrenic personality,on one hand he does not believe in Judaism he constantly mocks it,and on the other hand,he keeps certain commandments,like not posting on the Sabbath or not eating chametz on passover etc,that is a puzzle for me

Eating kitnyot on Pesach was the norm before the mid 15th century when some Ashkenazi Rebbes in France decided to change things and ban kitnyot during Pesach.

Ashkenazi Jewish religious law isn’t Jewish
law per se. It’s merely the Ashkenazi interpretation of Judaism and Jewish law.which these days is more a grab for power and gelt.

Posted by: Shayna G in NZ
=================================
Shayna, Have you a problem in reading and grasping the English language ?,my question to Shmaryah was not why he ate kitniyos,it was-why he even bothered eating it and not some hot pizza or bread,being that he believed that the exodus was a fairy tale and the bible was not divine but was authored by different authors at different times.
By the way,we are all very impressed by your knowledge that the prohibition of kitniyos was instituted by some Ashkebazi rabbi’s during the 15th century,Shaynah,nothing new here, even my 12 year old grandson knew that when he was only 8.
and by the way,i think it was earlier than the 15th century,it was around the 12th century.
Have a happy Passover (if celebrating it)

L’shana haba b’Yerushalayim. Next year in Jerusalem is looking more likely as Arabs and Muslims kill each, more Muslims immigrate to the US, other and the US is turning into a Towel of Babel under a power hungry liar in chief supported by progressive Jewish Federations. Perhaps the Exodus from Egypt, where the Jews once had it good in the days of Joseph before being liberated by Moses is a preface for Exit from US? There arose a new Pharoah…

Scripture clearly states that Israelites/Hebrews/Jews were originally pagans. No one familiar with Tenakh would argue that paganism did not come before Judaism. In addition, there would be absolutely no reason that paganism and monotheism cannot have certain things in common. However, that does not make them theoretically or functions ally the same. Even though forms of transportation, having an engine does not make a car an airplane. Even though forms of religion, having faith does not make paganism monotheism.

Read some books on paganism. I recommend Nordic/Germanic paths such as Ásatrú and Odinism. Just be aware that mead is not kosher for Passover.

Actually, it was a Canaanite festival to stop the Winter Chrayn:

(apologies to Prince, Purple Rain):

I never meant to cause you any tzuris
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time see you eating
I only wanted to see you
Eat fish with purple chrayn

Purple chrayn, purple chrayn
Purple chrayn, purple chrayn
Purple charyn, purple chrayn
I only wanted to see you
Slathering the purple chrayn

I never wanted to be at your Seder
I only wanted to be some kind of mensch
Bubbie, I could never take you from gemara [study]
It’s such a shame our chevrusa had to end

Purple chrayn, purple chrayn
Purple chrayn, purple chrayn
Purple charyn, purple chrayn
I only wanted to see you
Eat gefilte fish with purple chrayn

Rabbi, I know, I know
I know [4 cups of] wines are draining
It’s time we all reach out
For something, nu, that means Jews too

You say you want a breeder
But you can’t seem to make up your mind
I think you better choose her
And let me serve you the purple chrayn

Purple chrayn, purple chrayn
Purple chrayn, purple chrayn

If you know what I’m kvetching about up here
C’mon, it’s on hand
Purple chrayn, purple chrayn

I only want to see you
Only want to see you
Eating purple chrayn

Right – because that’s what Moshe Rabbenu would have done.

I don’t really care about an afterlife, but if I shared your belief system, I wouldn’t want your olam haba, or that of your fellow trolls, for all the cholent in frumville.

It’s a total coincidence, of course that Passover (and Easter) occurs near the equinox. As it’s a total coincidence that the High Holidays occur near the other equinox. And that Chanukah (and Christmas) occurs near the solstice. Only a godless heathen would dare to suggest that these holidays replaced existing pagan holidays centered around these key dates.
