Description

Nontraditional Haggadah for Passover. 20 pages. Printed by Hakibutz HaMeuchad. "In the name of all my brothers living in Yemen." Some texts refer to the Holocaust. Has a different version of Who Knows One? Auction listing: "Alongside the original spring passages is the text of 'Pesach Am Shomer', and after some texts relating to the results of the Holocaust: 'I dreamed a dream I shouted ... I have no people ... Old and boys... also women and children ! ...On what and why are they no longer? My people are dead...", a passage that opens with the words: 'See the land because we were wasteful', which refers in the parable of the many killed. Towards the end of the Haggadah, an interesting passage is added regarding the aliyah of Yemenite Jews: "In the name of all my brothers living in Yemen ... We have come to say hello ... ", and we set out to change the world', and more. The song of "One Who Knows" has been replaced to beginning chapters from the Tractates of the Shas and the Bible: 'Two are holding a tallit', 'Three who ate on one shulchan', 'Eight reptiles are said in the Torah', 'Five kings of Midian', etc. The Steiner list states that this Haggadah has appeared undated, and over the years several additions have been made to it. The Haggadah before us is one of the earliest that appeared without date mentioned."
