Ignore religious festival (8)
I believe the answer is:
passover
'religious festival' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for passover that I've seen before include "Disregard - Jewish festival" , "feast - with 25a" , "religious festival" , "spring festival" .)
