Description - Haggadah by Marc-Alain Ouaknin

The Haggadah is the text for the Seder, a Jewish ceremonial dinner that takes place on the first night of Passover. The festival commemorates one of the fundamental moments of Jewish history: the end of bondage in Egypt and the Exodus. The Haggadah's rhythm of songs and questions is a meditation on freedom. It is of central importance to the Jewish faith and is one of the Hebraic texts that has been discussed and recreated the most often. But Haggadah is more than a book, it is also a practical guide that follows the order of the Seder ceremony. This edition includes all the instructions and English and Hebrew text necessary to carry out a successful celebration in the traditional atmosphere of the event and invites celebrants to challenge their intelligence, taste and spirituality. The Collector's Edition is printed on rich, textured vellum paper and comes in a cloth covered presentation box and it includes the Soft Cover Edition. Each of the limited Collector's Edition is numbered. 50 original gouache illustrations
