A Seder takes place on the first night of Passover, and outside of Israel it takes plave on the first two nights of Passover. It is a festive meal which commemorates the Jewish exodus from Egypt, and it involves eating matzah (the bread of affliction), and retelling the story of the exodus from Egypt.

It's a meal, or part of a meal, taken to commemorate the Passover every year. This was the passing of the angel of death over Jewish homes when God afflicted Pharaoh's Egyptians with death of every firstborn because he wouldn't let the Israelites go free.
I'm a Christian, not Jewish, by the way.

it's a dinner held on the holiday called Passover, when the Angel of Death passed over the homes of the Jews and spared them, but killed all the first born of the Egyptians for their bad deeds. It's the same dinner that Jesus had at the Last Supper.

It's a meal with a bunch of people during Passover, along with recitations for the holdiay and food commemorating events of slavery in Egypt.
For example, matzoh (dried bread) and bitter herbs are to remind people of what took place.
