By Yehuda Shurpin| Chabad.org Verified We all know the first nights of Passover are a big deal, when we celebrate the Exodus from Egypt. But did you know that something equally dramatic happened on the seventh night? On Shevi’i shel Pesach, we mark the anniversary of the Splitting of the Sea. In many Jewish communities—both Ashkenazi and Sephardic—there’s a beautiful tradition of staying up late (or even all night) on Shevi’i shel Pesach.

Each person took a different side in the dispute until they began to speak critically of the great Rabbi Yonasan himself—unaware that he was sitting among them, disguised in the clothing of a simple villager.
