FROM OUR PREAMBLE
This organisation shall be known as HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF JEWS FROM EGYPT, and not of Egypt or of Egyptian Jews, but FROM EGYPT for the purpose will be to include all our co-religionists whose lineage have sojourned in the Jewish Communities of Egypt.

The aims of this society are to preserve, maintain, co-ordinate the implementation, and to convey our rich heritage to our children and grandchildren, using all educational means at our disposal to bring into being the necessary foundations.

Passover........celebrating the birth of our people’s Freedom from Egypt and so we learn; our fathers were slaves in Egypt, and if it wasn’t for the Almighty’s intervention we would have been slaves in Egypt until today.

Scribe: The truth about Passover: Who made us slaves in Egypt? It was none other than Joseph as a result of cornering the grain market. The whole population of Egypt became slaves to Pharaoh. When a new Pharaoh arose (Rameses 1) he released the Egyptians but kept the Hebrews in their bondage.
