Description - My People's Passover Haggadah by Lawrence A. Hoffman

In two volumes, this groundbreaking commentary features traditional Hebrew text with a new translation designed to let people know exactly what the Haggadah says. Introductory essays help you understand the historical roots of the ancient holiday, the development of the Haggadah and how to make sense out of texts and customs that evolved over more than a thousand years. Framed with beautifully designed Talmud-style pages, these volumes feature 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 Passover resource provides the English language reader with such a wide-ranging understanding of the Haggadah, the key to having the most meaningful Seder ever.
