Non-traditional hagaddah. Printed manuscript with large illustrations. The haggadah is missing the title page and the back binding [the first page is photocopied and bound as a title page, as well as the back of the binding].
The haggadah opens with original spring songs [“Wild fields, heritage of our forefathers, wide open free space – Is there another land blessed as you? …”] Further on, there are texts relating to the Holocaust and the struggle for independence: “The delicate souls have gone and evaporated from slavery and the bondage of poverty and coarseness and malice their government pours over everything … we were unable to rescue them, they were taken to their deaths … we, the saved, are responsible for the remnant of Israel. There are no other shoulders to impose upon. There is no back to hide behind. In exile a Jew would turn his face to Zion. In Zion a Jew must turn his face to the fallen sukkah of Israel …”
There are texts encouraging the survivors who came to the land, and more.
42 leaves. 21 cm. Double pages [one leaf for each page, attached at the edges].
