A beautifully illustrated Haggadah for the Passover Seder, as interpreted by the world-renowned philanthropist and Jewish leader Edgar M. Bronfman.
Designed to foster Jewish pride, Edgar Bronfmans creative approach weaves together meaningful readings, from the nineteenth-century abolitionist Frederick Douglas to a lesser-known poet, Marge Piercy. Bronfman captures the young readers imagination when each child, teenager, and adult assumes the role of a character in the Exodus story, or perhaps to become one of the storys narrators.
Watercolor paintings, created specially for this book, illustrate its main parts: the Seder plates symbolic foods, the parting of the Red Sea, the forty-year journey, the giving of the ten commandments on Mount Sinai, to name a few.
The Bronfman Haggadah is a welcome addition for the avid collector, as well as to be used as the Haggadah of choice to enrich the Passover Seder experience with its refreshing interactive approach.
