Haggadah of the Sages

The Passover Haggadah is a concise expression of the entire world of Judaism, containing all its principal elements. It reflects the faith, hopes, and longing for redemption of the Jewish people, and it identifies with the historical experience: "In every generation, each person must regard himself as if he himself had come out of Egypt." This Haggadah is presented in the spirit in which Sages wrote it. It is divided into two parts: the authors (father and son) begin with a long commentary, divided into sections. This is followed by a short commentary that accompanies the Haggadah itself. The reader of the short commentary who wants to learn about the origin and early history of the text will find them in the long commentary on the same passage.
