matza is the unleavened bread that is traditionally eaten during the jewish holiday of passover, which is from april 2nd through april 10th this year.
the story behind it is, when the jews had to leave egypt, they did not have enough time to cook the bread. so when they left, it had not had enough time to rise, and they eat it unleavened. it is now a tradition to eat matza during passover in remembrance of the exodus and what our ancestors had to go through.

Matza is part of the passover celebration.it is unleavened bread that the Jewish people eat in remberence of God taking them from Egypt. if you look at the matza you will notice 2 things. one that it has a brownness too it. sort of like a bruising effect on a body. then second it has little holes in it. both goes back to scripture of the Messiah being beaten and bruised for us. here is a link.
