Archivo: Samaritans' Passover at Mount Gerizim 5671133587

Descripción: The whole documentary set can be seen here: [1] WARNING!!!! This set contains explicit bloody images which may offend the viewer's sensitivity. Your Discretion Is Advised. Samaritans celebrate Passover on Mt. Grizim. For the Samaritans Mount Grizim, not Jerusalem, is the one true sanctuary chosen by Israel's God. Their community counts about 700 people. The Passover sacrifice-is the parallel of the Jewish Seder Night. The Samaritans gather around the altar and listen to the high priest's Passover blessing. Given his signal, the nominated people simultaneously sacrifice the animals. Around 50 lambs are sacrificed in one minute. Every Samaritan then puts a drop of blood on his forehead in identification with the Israelites drawing blood on their doorframes so that the angel of death would Pass Over their houses and spare the lives of their firstborns.
