This is the Conversation Forum for Pesach Corrections: >> Subject: Thanks Posted Aug 13, 2002 by Uncle Ghengis   Posting 1 Thanks for an informative entry. One question though, since the scriptures say that passover is supposed to include lamb, why is this not included in the Seder ? (only a leg bone, without meat) Read the First Reply to this Posting Subject: Thanks Posted Aug 1, 2005 by Jews_in_Space This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 2 The lamb is for the Karbon Pesach, or Pesach sacrafice. Since sacrafices could only be given when the Beit Hamikdash (Temple) was standing (except at a few other permissable times, like when they only had the Mishcan [tabernacle]), we do not eat lamb at the Seder today because it might look like we're giving the sacrafice, which is forbidden at this point in time.
