Book excerpt: Virtually every Jewish man, woman and child knows what Passover is and has participated at a Seder using the Passover Haggadah. It is the most beloved and universally popular Jewish book. The Haggadah has been published and printed in hundreds if not thousands of versions, and despite the fact that people have been adapting this ancient text and amending the ritual to reflect the consciousness of modernity, it remains remarkably impervious to changes in fashion.Part of the reason for its endurance is the fact that it is a very precisely worded and profoundly mystical text of fabulous complexity and brilliance. It should come as no surprise that all the characters mentioned by name in the Haggadah, R. Akiba, R. Yosi Haglili and R. Yehuda, were known to be active in the mystical arts in first and second century Palestine. Some, like R. Eliezer the Great and R. Akiba were leaders of their esoteric schools and authored Kabbalistic texts of their own.For the first time, the English reader is invited to join a Seder with some of the protagonists of those discussions, to make the personal journey out of slavery, to prepare for personal Giluy Shechinah - Divine Revelation.The Kabbalist Haggadah gives the reader a compelling reason and a marvelous tool for revisiting the original Haggadah. Every line of text and every detail of the ritual is given its basic Kabbalistic description and appropriate Kavanah - Intention. Besides providing a wealth of information to the would-be Kabbalist, a how-to manual of the Mystical Seder, Rabbi J. Hershy Worch takes the reader into the rarified world of Practical Kabbalah where every thought is mirrored and every act brings a response: As below so above - as above so below.The subtext of the Haggadah is the primal trauma, Adam and Eve eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, resulting in the loss of intimacy, referred to in the Kabbalah as the Exile of Da'at - Knowing. Slavery is undoubtedly the most prevalent and ancient of human sicknesses. Compulsive behaviors and what are commonly considered `addictions', all the modern barriers to intimacy, are merely the current forms of Egyptian Exile. The Haggadah is an ancient Self-help book, because that's what Kabbalah is all about.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a generation that has seen an explosion in popularity of books about mystical and meditative traditions, very little has been published about the rich and fascinating mystical traditions of the Jewish holy days. Passover, the first religious holiday of the Jewish people, particularly rewards a re-viewing from a mystical perspective. A Mystical Haggadah takes readers through the Passover ritual with Kabbalistic meditations and affirmations in a friendly, accessible format. This Haggadah also includes many Hassidic teachings and stories that have never been presented to the English reading audience. The book is especially valuable for its transliterations of all the major prayers and rituals, and is refreshing in its creative and spiritually-based adaptation and translation of the primary Haggadah text. A Mystical Haggadah is for all spiritual seekers who wish to explore this root tradition of Judaism as a ritual of cosmic importance. The book is also for Jewish seekers of all denominations who wish to explore the mystical, meditative, and empowering aspects of Jewish traditions as seen through the rich and meaningful Passover eve Seder ritual.
Download or read book Kabbalah Passover Haggadah written by Kevin Robert Minkoff and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-03-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Haggadah is an ancient text of the prayer service for the Jewish holiday of Passover. The Haggadah tells the story of the Hebrews' Exodus from Egypt. The Hebrew word Haggadah means "telling." This ancient ritual not only includes the order of ancient ceremonial events and the story of the Exodus but is a running commentary of prayer, legend, and exposition. As the mystical aspect of Judaism, Kabbalah is the perennial Judaic teaching about the Divine's attributes, the universe's nature, and destiny. Kabbalah is the path God revealed to devoted Jews to reach enlightenment. This Kabbalistic Haggadah is an application of the broad and diverse views and practices drawn from ancient and modern sources to the Passover service. Overlaying the Kabbalistic view of manifestation and existence onto the Passover seder, it is possible to view the Kabbalah as a map, guiding each one of us through the journey of our emanation from the divine, our human birth, and resurrection back to the divine.

Book excerpt: To paraphrase the question most commonly associated with the Passover Seder: Why is this Haggadah different from all other Haggadahs? The Kabbalah Haggadah offers far more than the traditional Hebrew text and English translation of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. This book decodes and reveals the hidden meaning concerning each stage of the Seder from a kabbalistic perspective. With this knowledge, readers and Seder participants can easily take advantage of the window of opportunity that Passover (Pesach) affords as a way to remove challenges and achieve more fulfillment.

First time we went back to Haggadah to finish the Seder after the meal.” “Thank you for a wonderful Haggadah. It honors our traditions and makes them relevant for today. Even my 13 and 15 year olds were inspired to participate!” “My family and I used this for our first Passover Seder tonight. We had a beautiful experience together. Everything was easy to follow and understand.” “The subtitle—a "simple" version—is not really true. We all felt the text was clear and thorough. This group of long-time Passover observers all learned things.” “We went through the whole Haggadah, the story was told nicely with both English and some Hebrew (and transliterations). We loved it!” “…a clear path to a lovely Passover dinner. Sharing this with newcomers puts them at ease to share in this beautiful tradition.” “Easy to follow, covered everything in a clear way for people unfamiliar with Passover. Appreciate the modern, liberal, inclusive tone. Highly recommended!” “I'm very glad we used "The New American Haggadah" last night and we'll continue to use it in years to come.” “Easy to use. Covers all the basics and tells a great story.” “Fantastic Haggadah. It is the perfect length. Tells the story without being too redundant. I highly recommend this to every family.” “Just right! It captured the traditional story—and not too long nor too short.” “We had a very "mixed" group at our Passover seder this year, ranging from extremely religious to extremely nonreligious, together with devout guests from other religions, and I feel like this book made for an enjoyable and accessible Seder experience for everybody involved.” “This combines all the favorite and traditional aspects of your grandpa's Haggadah while serving the needs of Jews in America today who want a modern explanation. Everyone contributes and there is no confusion at all about what the order is, what part is next, no frantic turning pages back and forth, stage whispering of "what page are we on?" and it has finally quashed the heckling from the Seder table crowd. You'll love this as our family did.” “I was pleased that the updates on concern for minorities was handled well, and the broader philosophies were not "preachy" but rather are thought-provoking and appropriate. The traditional Hebrew prayers are in there, and a comprehensive story of the Exodus is most informative to even those who go through it every year.” “Just finished a Seder guided by the New American Haggadah. We had a group of 23 participants. Everyone got involved in a story that is a cornerstone of the Jewish faith. It is a great read for today's insightful and intelligent Jewish family who has a rational understanding of Jewish history.” _____ You might enjoy this Haggadah if you like: short, simple, and fun Passover dinners; easy Seder meals; events with children and family; or Reform Jewish holidays.
Download or read book The Secrets of the Haggadah written by Matityahu Glazerson and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rabbi Matityahu Glazerson has used his unique approach to uncover the exalted ideas that the words and letters of the holy language, Hebrew, convey. This approach is especially suited to the study of Haggadah, for the holiday of Passover does not only symbolize our redemption but is also symbolic of the holy language. Pharaoh's underlying motive was to break down the barriers that separated the Jew from the Egyptian, thus effecting our spiritual downfall through assimilation. The sages teach that one of the reasons why the Jews in Egypt deserved to be redeemed was that they continued to speak Hebrew. In this way they guaranteed their distinctiveness and their sanctity.

Download or read book The Official Jewfro Genius Haggadah Shel Pesach written by Joshua Marcus and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-02-27 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, the Jewish festival of Pesach, which celebrates the Exodus from Egypt, is a time when famillies gather to participate in a Seder together. This formalised meal has two main requirements: speak about the Exodus from Egypt and ask questions.While writing about Pesach in my upcoming novel, about a gay eighteen-year-old Jew studying in Israel, certain themes kept recurring. Most poignant was the tension between the questions the characters were supposed to ask and the questions that spoke to their experience as outsiders. The story of the Exodus, as well as the way it is recounted in the Haggadah (which details the programme that the Seder is to follow), sets out a vision for what the God of Orthodox Judaism wants both from and for His people. When you're gay or queer or simply questioning the meaning of your own life, this vision not only falls short but can begin to feel like a prison.I ended up writing a Haggadah of my own which follows the fourteen stages of the traditional Seder. It consists mainly of stories about certain characters that relate to each stage, exploring the concepts of freedom, liberation, and purpose.The Official Jewfro Genius Haggadah will be most relatable to readers with Orthodox Jewish backgrounds, but the themes are universal. We were all raised in one system or another, into which some people seem to fit naturally while others are forced to either compromise or find a safe way out. Even if you never had to grapple with your identity in this system, no person is born with ready-made beliefs or practices and every single one of us has questioned to some extent.The contents of this Haggadah challenge traditional Jewish and religious thought, but this is not intended as an academic or intellectual document. This is all story, reflecting on characters and experiences which resonate regardless of where you stand in relation to religion.
