This work aims to analyse aspects of the Jewish culture specially in the formation of the collective Jewish identity from the narrative of the miracle of the exodus shortly after the departure of the Hebrew people from the Egyptian captivity, in the month of Nissan, in 1280 b. C., understanding memory participation as a necessary element to guarantee the narrative for later generations, honoring the customs and traditions of this people having as a reference the celebration of Pessach. This feast has a very important historical value within the Jewish scene. Prior to Egyptian captivity it was already possible to identify two distinct celebrations that happened in the spring period - the same in which later the liberation of the Hebrews of the Egyptian slavery was given. These were the feast of the paschal lamb, Chag HaPessach and an agricultural feast, Chag Hamatzot. With the episode of liberation of the Hebrews during the spring, these celebrations become one. During all the Pessach celebration, which occurs for seven days, the act of remembering is a big importance, because is what ensures that the tradition and covenant between God and the Jews is not forgotten. It is necessary that the experience of reliving the exodus be lived by all the Jews who celebrate the feast. A special element within this ritual is the Seder, where the Haggadah is read through his teachings, the narrative lived by the Hebrews who participated in the exodus is transmitted to all the family. The main message of the feast is to think of the freedom acquired by the Hebrews from the moment of their departure from the Egyptian territory.
