Overview

In every generation, the Haggadah enjoins us to retell the story of the Exodus from serfdom to freedom as a living personal experience. Here is everything you need to make your family's Seder a joyous and meaningful holiday celebration. Beginning with directions for setting the Seder table and arranging the Seder plate, The Schocken Passover Haggadah will guide you through the complete traditional text, with an accessible running commentary on the meaning of the symbols and rituals of the Seder. The text appears in Hebrew and English on facing pages in this easy-to-follow layout, and is accompanied by illustrations from Haggadot from many countries and centuries. This edition includes a section of contemporary readings on the meaning of Passover by some of the best-known teachers of our time, along with a selection of midrashim, tales, teachings, and meditations on the Holocaust.
