Every year, Jews, and the folks who love them, gather around the Seder table with family and friends to read from the Haggadah, the story of Jewish ancestors who were enslaved in Egypt and their journey to freedom. It’s a time not only to remember the past but also to make the Seder experience relevant, relatable, and personal, incorporating new and up-to-date interpretations and interests.

It doesn’t matter if you’ve read the entire Talmud ten times in Aramaic or if your religious education consists of a few episodes of Seinfeld–The Passover Haggadah is for everyone. It’s about making the Seder experience one’s own. Ask the Four Questions in Hebrew or English. Learn about the Ten Plagues and The Modern Ten Plagues as told by Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan. Other contributions include My Big Gay Seder Wedding by Wayne Hoffman, Tablet’s executive editor, and The Blessings of an Interfaith Passover by Molly Yeh, award-winning food blogger. Sing Dayenu together and take turns answering the question What do you have in your life that, if you had nothing else, would be enough? Encouraging messages can be found throughout the book, including a very important one that follows the second cup of wine, which is Take a big, happy sip. Food is nearly at hand. Original illustrations round out this beautiful package. From start to finish, the Seder is a joyful gathering that will only be enhanced by this special keepsake.
