The Wind­ing Road of Redemp­tion by Rab­bi Yaakov Moshe Fisch

The night of the Pesach Seder is not only when we com­mem­o­rate our nation­al jour­ney from servi­tude to sal­va­tion; it is an aus­pi­cious moment on the per­son­al lev­el as well. Whether our lives include health chal­lenges, finan­cial dis­tress, or spir­i­tu­al road­blocks, deliv­er­ance remains elu­sive for so many of us. This new com­men­tary on the Hag­gadah offers fresh insight into the time­less wis­dom of the Seder, illu­mi­nat­ing our per­son­al path and enrich­ing our lives as we trav­el the wind­ing road of redemp­tion.’ ” ‑From the Publisher

The Echoes of Egypt Hag­ga­da by Rab­bi Dr. Joshua Berman

This Hag­ga­da draws on the rich visu­al world of ancient Egypt to illu­mi­nate the Exo­dus as a the­o­log­i­cal and ide­o­log­i­cal rev­o­lu­tion. More than a pas­sage from slav­ery to free­dom, the sto­ry we tell is a protest against empire, a rejec­tion of tyran­ny, and the birth of a new vision of time, pow­er, and human worth.” ‑From the Publisher
