Summary:
The Passover story is amazing and powerful, a foundational account in which God sends Moses to lead the children of Israel to freedom, amid "signs and wonders" wrought by the Almighty against the Egyptians. In so many Haggadahs, though, the story is hard to understand, hard to follow, obscure, archaic, and piecemeal ... often leaving you confused and unable to appreciate the full richness of the Passover story. In this new and modern Haggadah, you'll enjoy the Passover story as a straightforward, understandable, easy to follow narrative based on the story told in the Torah. This Haggadah also includes all of the traditional rituals and all of the traditional blessings, text for which is presented in Hebrew with transliteration and English translation. There is also English-only commentary, explanatory information, and directions. This approachable version of the Haggadah will appeal to Jewish people of multiple backgrounds and practices, as well as their non-Jewish guests.--Publisher.
