The Haggadah is one of the most beloved books in Judaism. It recounts the story of the Israelites' liberation from slavery & the Exodus from Egypt, a story that is celebrated each year in every Jewish home at the Passover Seder, whose liturgy the Haggadah contains. This Haggadah contains magnificent illuminations from medieval Haggadot in the collection of the British Library. Both Ashkenazic & Sephardic in origin, the Haggadot produced herein are not pristine; they were not created to be kept in a cloister & studied by scholars. Rather their wine-stained pages & worn condition testify to the many seders at which they themselves were read by generations of Jews. A commentary amplifies the traditional text & draws on the remarkable illustrative material.
