Samaritan Passover
Now I’m going to take you on the top of Mount Gerizim where the Samaritans lived. Today this is the only group that still practices the Passover because they believe Mount Gerizim is the holy mountain that God chose. So unlike the Jews that believe Passover should be celebrated in a way that honors the spot in Jerusalem that was the Temple, Samaritans are still celebrating this family sacrifice on Mount Gerizim.
