My People s Passover Haggadah
Traditional Texts, Modern Commentaries
In two volumes, this empowering resource for the spiritual
revival of our times enables us to find deeper meaning in one of
Judaism s most beloved traditions, the Passover Seder. Rich
Haggadah commentary adds layer upon layer of new insight to the
age-old celebration of the journey from slavery to freedom and
makes its power accessible to all.
This diverse and exciting Passover resource features the
traditional Haggadah Hebrew text with a new translation designed to
let you know exactly what the Haggadah says. Introductory essays
help you understand the historical roots of Passover, the
development of the Haggadah, and how to make sense out of texts and
customs that evolved from ancient times.
Framed with beautifully designed Talmud-style pages, "My People
s Passover Haggadah " features commentaries by scholars from all
denominations of Judaism. You are treated to insights by experts in
such fields as the Haggadah s history; its biblical roots; its
confrontation with modernity; and its relationship to rabbinic
midrash and Jewish law, feminism, Chasidism, theology, and
kabbalah.
No other resource provides such a wide-ranging exploration of
the Haggadah, a reservoir of inspiration and information for
creating meaningful Seders every year.
The Haggadah is a book not just of the Jewish People, but of
ordinary Jewish people. It is a book we all own, handle, store at
home, and spill wine upon Pick up a Siddur, and you have the
history of our People writ large; pick up a Haggadah, and you have
the same but also the chronicle of Jewish life writ small: the
story of families and friends whose Seders have become their very
own local cultural legacy.... "My People s Passover Haggadah" is
for each and every person looking to enrich their annual experience
of Passover in their own unique way.
