Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This haggadah explores themes of nature and the land within the Passover seder, to help participants develop an ecological understanding of and connection with Jewish tradition. Passover marks the Jewish peoples' liberation from slavery in Egypt and the coming of spring. Yet it is also a story about land and the natural world. All our biblical holidays"¬‚¬"Passover included"¬‚¬"originally commemorated the agrarian and pastoral soil out of which Judaism grew. Today, we are deeply aware that our well-being and our freedom ultimately depend on the earth's well-being. If the earth and its systems are compromised, our ability to be free is compromised; life is compromised. This haggadah keeps the earth in the forefront of our minds. It seeks to reveal the seder's ecological dimensions and awaken its environmental meaning.

Download or read book The Passover Haggadah written by Vanessa L. Ochs and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This telling of the life of the Haggadah, probably the most beloved of books that Jews own, chronicles its recalibrations over time. It moves from its early sources in the Bible and rabbinic literature; to the years it was a handwritten manuscript; to its life as an illuminated book in the middle ages; to its emergence as mass-produced printed book and later, as an artist's book; to its iterations in the twentieth century in America and Israel, including those using emerging technologies of our day. It is the story of a liturgical text came about to fulfill a biblical injunction to fathers to tell the story of the Exodus from Egypt to their children (literally, to their sons): "And you shall tell your son on that day, 'It is because of what the Lord did for me when I went free from Egypt'" (Exodus 13:8). Despite significant flaws in the text that have occasioned thousands of revisions, it remains well and alive because it allows its users to transmit the story of Exodus as if it happened to them. With a Haggadah in hand at a Passover seder meal, the text kindles the memory of belonging to a people who knew slavery and then liberation and enlivens empathy. An engagement with the Haggadah, inevitable leaves one feeling responsible for helping others to achieve their own liberation".
