Description

Departing Egypt Passover Haggada is the culmination of many decades of teaching and study, inspired by the encouragement of congregants, friends, and family. Throughout his adult life, Rabbi Frimer immersed himself in the writings of many different commentators on the Haggadah, gleaning insights and interpretations of its age-old verses. He was intrigued by their creativity, ingenuity, and bold interpretations, as well as their probing analysis of intellectual, psychological, and emotional themes. As a community rabbi, Rabbi Frimer shared these insights in an annual Haggadah shiur, helping others engage more deeply with the text. He pays particular attention to the flow of the Haggadah, guiding readers through its progression by summarizing key themes - where we have been, what we have learned, and where we are headed. Notably, he devotes special focus to the post-meal Hallel-Nirtza portion of the Haggadah often overlooked by other commentators. This omission is unfortunate, as many Seder participants, both young and old, find Nirtza to be one of the most memorable and meaningful parts of the evening. This volume is rich with insights and thought-provoking discussions on themes of servitude and the Exodus. Those who study it will undoubtedly find their Seder experience enriched and renewed. The full traditional Passover Haggadah text is included in Hebrew, with commentary and instructions in English.
