1. =E2=80=A2 THE PRATO HAGGADAH. [New York, Jewish Theological Semi=
nary],
2006 (ca. 1300). Full leather, 14 x 21 cm, 160 pp + commentary. The
Prato Haggadah (Spain, ca.1300) is an unfinished illuminated manuscript
of 85 leaves, written on fine calf parchment. Folios 1=E2=80=9353 are w=
ritten
in a square Sephardic script and folios 54=E2=80=9368 are written in a=
square
Italo-Ashkenazic script, using a different ink. The illumination of 30
pages is virtually complete. 58 are unfinished, with preparatory
drawings and possibly some gesso and color, 50 have text only and the
remaining pages are blank. Many of the pages have illuminated initial
word panels, comparable to illuminated initials in Christian or secular
manuscripts. Throughout, illustrations accompany the text, such as the
depiction of the four sons, and illustrations of matza and maror
(bitter herbs). Preparatory drawings depicting the story of Noah and
the flood appear at the end of the manuscript. Margins are replete with
fanciful drawings of hybrid creatures, imaginary birds, drolleries and
climbing vines. The codex is especially fascinating because it
demonstrates the making of a manuscript in the Middle Ages, enabling us
to view its illumination after the text was written: the preparatory
drawings, the laying down of gesso in order to cushion the gold leaf,
the application of gold and silver leaf, and ultimately the application
of pigments. The skill of the artist is of a very high order, both in
the preparatory drawings and in the completed pages, whose brilliant
colors look as fresh today as when they were applied. Printed and bound
as an exact replica of the highest quality of the 13th Century
illuminated manuscript in appropriate leather boards and parchment-like
leaves. Limited edition of 250 copies. A treasure to behold. Leaf

containing the handwritten signature of Rabbi Jacob Rabinowitz. Jacob
Rabinowitz (1857=E2=80=931921) , =E2=80=9CLithuanian rabbi and Zionist=
leader. Born in
Kelme, Rabinowitz held rabbinical posts at Ivye, Aleksot, and Sopotskin
and was esteemed as a writer of responsa and novellae, some of which
were collected in his Sefer Orah Yashar (1903). An early member of the
Kovevei Zion, Rabinowitz attended the Second Zionist Congress, where he
made a deep impression on both Theodor Herzl and the delegates; he was
elected to the Zionist General Council, later serving as one of the
first directors of the Jewish Colonial Trust. =E2=80=A6 In 1906 Rabinow=
itz was
appointed rabbi of Liverpool, where he did much to promote traditional
observance and communal harmony, despite the early hostility of more
Anglicized members of the local community. Together with Reines, he
founded the Mizrachi world movement of religious Zionists in 1902, and
he maintained his Zionist activity in England, being elected president
of the British Mizrachi organization at its first conference in 1918.=

Am Main;
Verlag Des Herausgebers Guggenheim, 1927. Clothbound. 4to. 97, [1]
pages. 30 cm. First edition. Hebrew text with German translation.
Original tan cloth spine, paper over boards, printed paper label.
Edited by Siegfried Guggenheim, type set by the caligrapher Rudolf
Koch, with 30 striking =E2=80=9CWiener Werkstaette=E2=80=9D style hand-=
colored plates,
including two maps of the Holy Land by Franz Kredel; printed in a
limited edition of 300 copies (Number 124 of 300) as issued, this
beautifully made volume is printed in red and black ink on fine paper,
including dozens of musical notations; with color illustrations
throughout depicting the plague set upon Egypt and the exodus. This
Weimar era fine edition is based on the Offenbacher Haggadah of Isaac
Offenbach (1779=E2=80=931850) , a famous =E2=80=9CHazzan. Isaac ben Jud=
ah, surnamed
Eberst, was born in Offenbach near Frankfurt. After he left his native
town in 1799 to become a wandering Hazzan and musician, he began to be
called, "der Offenbacher, " which soon became his official family name.
In 1802 he settled in Deutz as a tavern musician, and in 1816 moved to
Cologne, where he became a music teacher and in about 1826 the town
Hazzan, a post he held until shortly before his death. The seventh of
his nine children, Jacob, was the composer Jacques Offenbach. Isaac
Offenbach was a versatile musician, a prolific composer (mainly of
synagogal works) , and a writer and translator of merit. His historical
importance stems from the fact that the documentation of his life and
work has survived almost in full. His publications are a Haggadah with
German translation and six appended melodies, some traditional and some
composed by him (1838) ; a Hebrew-German youth prayer book (1839) ; and
a number of guitar pieces. His manuscripts =E2=80=A6 include reminiscen=
ces by
his daughter, and about 20 fascicles and folders of cantorial
compositions and notations of traditional melodies. Over and above
their value as "cantorial" antecedents of his famous son's work, these
manuscripts provide both a treasure trove of the "great tradition" of
Ashkenazi Hazzanut and an instructive picture of the development of a
Hazzan at the beginning of the Emancipation. =E2=80=9D (2007 Encycloped=
ia
Judaica). Since reprinted in a duplicate form, in 1960, this is one of
the remaining extant copies of the first edition. Contains laid in

Haggadah --Illustrations. Haggadah (Sephardic). This is the companion
volume to the facsimile edition of the Prato Hagadah, a Sephardic
Haggadah produced in Spain, ca. 1300, with incomplete illuminations.
The manuscript lacks a colophon, but contains an Italian censor=E2=80=
=99s
signature dated 1617. This companion volume (107 pages: color
illustrations) contains an introduction and essays by David Kraemer...
[et al. ] and is edited by Naomi M. Steinberger. Includes
bibliographical referenes. OCLC lists 4 copies worldwide (JTS,
Metropolitan Museum of Art, University of Pennsylvania, British
Library). =E2=80=9CNothing at all is known of either the patron or scri=
be of
the Prato Haggadah, and little is known of its whereabouts from the
time it was produced in Spain, around 1300, until the time it was
acquired by the JTS Library in l964. While the haggadah's text is
written in accordance with the Spanish rite, at some point additional
text, which included liturgical poems of the Ashkenazic rite, was
added, most likely in Italy. A 1617 signature of an Italian church
censor, Giovanni Domenico Carretto is proof that the manuscript
actually was in Italy at the beginning of the seventeenth century.
Nothing further is known of the haggadah's history until 1928, when it
was in the possession of Dr. Ludwig Pollak, a native of Prague living
in Rome. A distinguished humanist and collector of classical art,
literary manuscripts, books and Judaica, Dr. Pollak promised the
haggadah to his friend Rabbi David Prato, Chief Rabbi of Rome. After
disagreements with the Fascist authorities in the late 1930s, Rabbi
Prato moved to Palestine. Dr. Pollak, his wife and son, along with
other members of the Jewish community of Rome, were deported to
Auschwitz, where they perished. After the war, Rabbi Prato was recalled
to his previous position in Rome and served the community until his
death in 1951. Shortly after the Rabbi's demise, his only son
Jeonathan, an Israeli diplomat en route to his post in Buenos Aires,
was visited by the sister-in-law of Dr. Pollak in Rome. Knowing of Dr.
Pollak's intention to donate the manuscript to the rabbi, she fulfilled
the promise and gave the haggadah to the rabbi's only surviving heir.
The Prato Haggadah was purchased by the JTS Library in 1964. The art of
the Prato Haggadah is witty and imaginative. The manuscript is replete
with decorated initial word panels, foliate ornamentation, and hybrid
figures. Several illustrations relate directly to the text... The Prato
Haggadah contains motifs common in medieval manuscripts, and many
folios reflect the artist's sense of humor... For reasons that remain
obscure, the manuscript's illumination was never completed. It is
precisely the unfinished nature of the codex that allows the viewer to
see the stages of production of an illuminated manuscript: the scribal
arrangement of the text; the artist's preparatory drawings; the
application of gesso to cushion gold or silver leaf; the addition of
the leaf; the painting of a wide variety of pigments; and the outlining
of the illuminations with ink. The text of the Prato Haggadah is also
distinctive. Although it includes the standard biblical, talmudic, and
midrashic texts, as well as the liturgical poetry common to other
Spanish Haggadot, the Prato Haggadah lacks all elements associated with
the Passover meal. Kiddush, blessings for matzah and maror,
instructions for the feast itself, and grace after meals are absent.
Scholars have suggested that Haggadot of this kind may have been
written to be read publicly in the synagogue, after which people would
return to their homes for the meal. This phenomenon is found in other
Spanish Haggadot and is explained by medieval sources as satisfying the
requirement to recount the story of the Exodus for people unable to
lead or attend a seder. Many Sephardic Jews immigrated to Italy
following the expulsions from the Iberian Peninsula at the end of the
fifteenth century, often taking their manuscripts with them. Though we
do not know when the Prato Haggadah left Spain, the manuscript includes
an Ashkenazic liturgical section probably added in northern Italy in
the sixteenth century and a censor's signature from Italy dated 1617.
In addition, the volume contains many textual emendations and
corrections inserted over several centuries. Though the Spanish or
Ashkenazic sections of the manuscript cannot be definitively dated or
localized, scribal practices and liturgical variants provide a general
overview of the history of the manuscript and its owners=E2=80=9D (JTS=
2010).

Haggadah with Judeo-Arabic translation following the rites of Tunis
includes 78 detailed illustrations from woodcuts printed in green ink.
Livorno (Leghorn) was an old center of an established Sephardic
community in Italy, seconding Venice in Italian Jewish printing houses,
with a synagogue considered the finest in Italy. The Jews of Leghorn
were known as Gorni (pl. Grana) , a =E2=80=9Cterm used for the Jewish
immigrants from Leghorn (Livorno) , who began to settle in North
Africa, especially in Tunisia, from the 17th century on. The Grana were
essentially merchants; their commercial activity was strictly connected
with the Jews of Livorno. They were 400 or 500 in 1821, their number
rose to 2, 500 or 3, 000 in 1893 and to about 5, 000 in 1938. Until the
1940s the Gorni constituted separate congregations in Tunis and in
other towns of Tunisia, with their own administration, bet din, and
communal institutions. At all times, the Grana considered themselves as
belonging to the European culture (besides Arabic, they spoke Spanish,

The
printing house which issued this Haggadah in 1933 was started by
Solomon Belforte (1806=E2=80=931869) , =E2=80=9Cprinter of Leghorn. Bel=
forte belonged
to an Italian Jewish family that settled in Leghorn (Livorno) at the
end of the 17th century. He started to edit Hebrew prayer books in 1821
and established his own printing house in 1834. In 1843, the local
government authorized the printing of Italian translations of Hebrew
liturgical texts. The activity of Salomone Belforte & Co. Was continued
by the family =E2=80=93 with the forced hiatus of the period of Fascist
antisemitic laws and the war =E2=80=93 until 1961, when all the equipme=
nt of
the printing house was sold to an Israeli company. For almost 100
years, Salomone Belforte & Co. Was one of the most prestigious
publishers of Hebrew books, meeting the intellectual and religious
needs of Italian, Sephardi, and also Ashkenazi communities. Beside
this, the Belforte printing house published Italian literary works and
school books. =E2=80=9D (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica) Yaari 2178; Yudlov=

Frankfurt A. M. ; J. Kauffmann, 1938. Clothbound. 8vo. 210 pages. 24
cm. In German and Hebrew. Revised and edited by Oscar Lehmann, printed
in 1938. Two haggadahs were printed in Germany in this year, our copy
from Frankfurt and the other from Berlin, comprising two of the last
haggadahs printed in Germany until after the Holocaust. This Haggadah,
bound in beige boards with a cloth backstrip, contains a dozen large
plates depicting illustrations from medieval german Haggadahs. Rabbi
Marcus Lehmann (Meir; 1831=E2=80=931890) , was a =E2=80=9CGerman Orthod=
ox rabbi,
scholar, and writer. Lehmann was born in Verden, Germany, and studied
with Israel Hildesheimer in Halberstadt, with S. L. Rapoport in Prague,
and at Halle. In Prague he was friendly with the writer Solomon Kohn,
who may have influenced Lehmann's future work as a writer. In 1853 an
organ was introduced in the synagogue of Mainz and in 1854, when the
Orthodox members formed a separate congregation, Lehmann was elected
their rabbi and, eventually, one of the leaders and spokesmen of modern
German Orthodoxy. In Mainz he founded a religious school which from
1859 was an elementary day school for boys and girls. Lehmann wrote
polemically against Reform and founded the weekly Israelit (1860=E2=80=
=931938)
to counter the influence of Ludwig Philippson's Reform periodical,
Allgemeine Zeitung des Judentums; the Israelit became the principal
voice of German Orthodoxy. Lehmann was the main contributor to the
Israelit and his many historical novels, including Rabbi Joselmann von
Rosheim (translated into English as Tales of Yore, 1947) , and short
stories were first published in it. His stories were collected in Aus
Vergangenheit und Gegenwart (6 vols. 1872=E2=80=9388) , and many were
translated or adapted into Hebrew, Judeo-Arabic, French, Hungarian,
English, and other languages. =E2=80=A6 Of more scholarly importance, t=
hough
also primarily intended for popular instruction, are his German edition
of the Haggadah (1906, 1914, 1926) , anonymously revised and enlarged
by H. Ehrmann and translated into English (1969) , and his Sabbath
lectures on Avot, collected as Die Sprueche der Vaeter (in
installments, in: Israelit, 1895=E2=80=931905; 3 vols. 1921/23) in whic=
h
Lehmann made use of earlier commentators, particularly of Samuel b.
Isaac 's Midrash Shemu'el, and thus made the commentators accessible to
the German reader. Lehmann also published the tractate Berakhot of the
Jerusalem Talmud with the commentary of Solomon Sirillo and his own
notes, Meir Nativ (1874). Lehmann translated the Pentateuch (1873,
19136) in the Bible translation initiated by the Orthodox Bible
Institute to counter the translation of Zunz and others. =E2=80=9D (200=

y names
inspire awe: Rabbi Isser Zalman Meltzer of Slutzk and Jerusalem; Rabbi
Aharon Kotler of Kletzk and Lakewood; Rabbi Chaim Shmulevitz of Mir and
Jerusalem; Rabbi Yaakov Yisrael Kanievsky, the Steipler Gaon of Bnai
Brak; Rabbi Yaakov Kamenetsky of Torah Vodaath; and Rabbi Moshe
Feinstein of Mesivtha Tifereth Jerusalem! Another year, another
Haggadah. One often wonders what is left to say -- but no one will ask
that question about this monumental anthology. For the first time in
English, this volume brings together the ideas and expositions of six
of the greatest luminaries of contemporary times, six revered and
renowned roshei yeshivah, who, collectively, were the teachers and
leaders of tens, even hundreds of thousands of Jews, all over the
world. First in =E2=80=98Arzei HaLevanon, =E2=80=99 the Hebrew predeces=
sor of this
volume, and now here, their discourses on the Haggadah are collected
and set forth with taste and clarity. All of them were Torah geniuses,
who saw lessons for today in the miracles of yesterday. To them, the
Haggadah and the story of the Exodus were guideposts for life in every
era. Their interpretations of the Haggadah are distinguished for depth,
incisiveness, pure faith -- and the profound depth that marked their
authors as the Torah leaders of three generations. =E2=80=9D With dustj=

, =E2=80=9CU. S. Sculptor, printmaker, watercolorist, and illustrator.=
Born in
New Brunswick, New Jersey, Baskin was the son of a leading Orthodox
rabbi. His earliest education was at a yeshivah in Brooklyn, where his
family had moved when he was seven. After developing an interest in
sculpture at age 14, he would attend day classes at the yeshivah and
take evening art classes at the Educational Alliance (1937=E2=80=9339).=
Baskin
also attended New York University (1939=E2=80=9341) and Yale University
(1941=E2=80=9343). While at Yale, Baskin discovered William Blake. Impr=
essed by
Blake's role as a poet-artist-bookmaker, Baskin founded the Gehenna
Press in 1942 and learned printmaking. The Press has published over 100
books, including Homer's Iliad (1962) and Dante's Divine Comedy (1969).
=E2=80=A6 Many of Baskin's drawings and prints concern Jewish subjects.=
In 1974
he illustrated A Passover Haggadah, for which he provided watercolors,
as well as hand lettering of much of the Hebrew text. Baskin received
many important commissions, including a bas relief for the Franklin D.
Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D. C. and a seven-foot-tall bronze
figure for a Holocaust Memorial in Ann Arbor, Michigan. =E2=80=9D (2007

Passover Haggadah is becoming more scarce in hardcover. It has become a
central part of the Passover tradition for many Jewish families. The
vibrant paintings, the arrangement of the Seder text for group or
responsive readings, the inclusion of the simple musical score for each
Passover song, and instructions for special blessings and rituals make
this book a perfect introduction to the Passover Seder for children and
a family treasure for young and old. Subjects: Haggadah -

Cohen,
an Israeli-born scholar, was appointed Assistant Professor in Talmud
and Halakhic Literature at HUC-JIR, Cincinnati, in July 1998, and
Director of the Hebrew Union College-University of Cincinnati Center
for the Study of Ethics and Contemporary Moral Problems in January
2000. In November 2003, he was awarded the Rabbi Michael Matuson
Professorship for Emerging Scholars, and he was named Affiliate Member
of the Laboratoire Des etudes sur les Monoth=C3=A9ismes of the French C=
NRS
(National Center for Scientific Research) in August 2005. Dr. Cohen's
interests include history of law, law and religion, and, in particular,
the evolution of Jewish law in Christian Europe. He read law at the
University of Kent, Canterbury, and earned his Ph. D. (Law) from the
University of Liverpool. His research focused on the evolution of
restitution as a civil remedy in medieval Jewish law. At the Oxford
Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies he was the first David Patterson
Junior Fellow in Jewish Law. He has recently written on the status of
married women in bigamous Jewish households, on the evolution of Jewish
welfare law, on rabbinic perceptions of Jewish solidarity, and on
Jewish law and modernity. Dr. Cohen is currently editing a volume of
studies in Jewish commercial law that will be published by the Jewish
Law Association, and is writing on the development of halakhic writing
and reasoning. =E2=80=9D (Hebrew Union College faculty page) Subjects:=

writers. Although he also undertook translations, e. G. in 1891

20 cm. First edition. In Hebrew and Yiddish. Bound in green cloth, with
forty black and white illustrations throughout and a final 8 pages of
plates; most illustrations done by celebrated 19th century engraver and
illustrator Gustave Dore. The author of this Haggadah, Chaim Aron
Kaplan (1880=E2=80=931942) , was an educator and diarist of the Holocau=
st.
Chaim Aron Kaplan was born in Horodyszcze in 1880, then part of the
Russian Empire, and today the town of Gorodishche in Belarus. He
attended cheder (Hebrew classes) as a boy and received a traditional
education, going on to study at the famous Yeshivas of Mir, Minsk and
Lida, before continuing his studies at the government pedagogical
institute for teachers in Vilna. In 1900, Kaplan became involved in the
secular Jewish school movement and moved to Warsaw, where, in 1905, he
founded a secular Hebrew elementary school which he ran for the next
thirty-four years. He visited the United States in 1921 and produced a
number of books, including a Hebrew Grammar in 1926, followed by a
Passover Haggadah for children. The latter work included a lengthy
introduction on Passover customs among Jewish communities around the
world, and was also published in 1928 in Warsaw in Hebrew, Yiddish, and
Polish as well as being reprinted after the war in a Hebrew edition.
Kaplan visited Palestine in 1936 with the intention of settling there.
His two children had emigrated earlier, and Kaplan hoped to join them,
but he was unable to obtain a position and returned to Warsaw. Yaari

with the Zionists in order to escape Europe during the Holocaust.
=E2=80=9CElazar Shapira was born in Strzyz=C3=B3w, Galicia in 1871 and=

Tzvi Hirsch Shapira, in 1913, Chaim Elazar Shapira became the Admor
(Grand Rabbi) of Munk=C3=A1cs. Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shapira was the Admor=
of a
well-known sect of Hasidim, renowned for his Torah genius. His
followers and enemies alike spoke very highly of him, and his influence
spread far beyond Munk=C3=A1cs, to Subcarpathian Rus' and Hungary. =E2=
=80=A6 In
1922, the town established its great yeshiva, "Darchei Teshuva, " that
drew large numbers of students from across Hungary and Czechoslovakia
and soon became one of the largest yeshivot in Hungary. He became head
of the yeshiva, giving his lessons within its walls. During his tenure,
some 200 students learned at the yeshiva, which won recognition from
the Czech authorities as an official institution for instructing
rabbis. In 1930, Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shapira visited Eretz Israel. One
of his disciples, Rabbi Moshe Goldstein, accompanied him, writing about
his rebbe's visit in his book =E2=80=98Masa'ot Yerushalayim=E2=80=99 (J=

immigration to Eretz Israel. =E2=80=A6 In 1937, Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shap=

rabbi and educationist; born in Kingston, Jamaica, Feb. 9, 1825; died
in New York April 18, 1893. He was the first master of the Beth Limud
School of Kingston, but resigned in order to prepare in London,
England, for the vocation of preacher and rabbi. He studied under Dr.
Meldola, the dayyan, and the Rev. D. A. De Sola, =E2=80=98the learned H=
azzan=E2=80=99
of the Sephardic community, and received his diplomas. He returned to
Jamaica and became for a short time assistant to the Rev. Isaac Lopez,
minister of the Kingston Sephardic congregation, but was soon called
from that position to be the minister of the Montego Bay community.
There he stayed until his wife's failing health compelled him, in 1851,
to return to her milder native climate. Mendes was then elected
minister and preacher in the Birmingham (Eng. ) congregation, and
remained there until 1858, when he removed to London, became head of
the Neveh Zedek for six years, and established Northwick College, a
school for Jewish youth. He continued meanwhile his ministerial duties
and literary labors, and on the death of Haham Artom acted as preacher
and dayyan for the Sephardic community of London. He was called to the
ministry in the Newport (Rhode Island) congregation by the guardian
congregation Shearith Israel of New York in 1883, and continued its
minister until his death ten years later. He was the first among the
Sephardim to publish a volume of sermons in English (1855). He
translated the Daily Prayer-Book of the German Jews (Valentine's
edition) , and finished the translation of the Festival and Holy Day
Books left incomplete by the death of Rev. D. A. De Sola. He published,
besides, =E2=80=98The Law of Moses, =E2=80=99 =E2=80=98Post-Biblical Hi=

fine edition of the Haggadah, with an expert introduction by Cecil
Roth, and many color illustrations throughout by Donia Nachshen; this
edition was bound in red cloth, with decorative gilt lettering on
cover, and is housed in a clamshell box. Cecil Roth, (1899-1970) , was
one of the greatest Jewish historians in the twentieth century,
recognized expert in Jewish art and educator. The Roth family was
descendant from Reb Y. T. Roth of Poland and there existed a family
tradition that they were descendant from Yossef Karo, the Sephardic
author of the Shulhan Aruch, Code of Jewish Law. Cecil was an observant
Jew his whole life and adopted the Sephardic minhag which he had
learned in Florence, Italy. A prolific writer, Roth published more than
600 books and articles, which have been translated into many languages,
including histories of the Jews in England (1941) and Italy (1946) , A
History of the Marranos (3d ed. 1966) , The Jews in the Renaissance
(1959) , Jewish Art (1961) , and The Dead Sea Scrolls (1965). Donia
Nachshen came from a Jewish family. Her brother, Maurice (Moshe ben
Zvi) was born in 1899 and lived in Zhitomir, until he immigrated, as a
child to London in 1906. Donia was born in Russia, and studied at Slade
School of Fine Arts, London. Nachschen was a book illustrator for John
Lane who also designed posters for the Post Office during the second
world war. A selection of books that Nachshen illustrated include:

Haggadah illustrated by Joseph Budko, with 39 woodcut historiated
initials and lithograph etchings. Joseph Budko (1888=E2=80=931940) , wa=
s a
=E2=80=9Cpainter and graphic artist. Budko, who was born in Plonsk, rec=
eived a
traditional Jewish education. In 1902 he went to study at the art
school in Vilna. In 1910 Budko moved to Berlin where he learned
metal-chasing and also studied at the Museum of Arts and Crafts. In
Berlin Budko met Hermann Struck who taught him the technique of
etching. Eventually he also took up woodcutting, lithography, and
painting. In 1933 Budko settled in Palestine. In 1935 he became the
director of the reopened New Bezalel school of arts and crafts. Budko
stressed the teaching of graphic design and utilized the ornamental
value of the Hebrew letters. Budko's subject matter was determined by
the Jewish environment in which he grew up and to which he returned in
Jerusalem. Budko developed a style that combined the personal with the
Jewish, being a synthesis of Jewish tradition and modern art. He also
revived the spirit of Jewish book illustration, adapting it to modern
design. Among the books he illustrated are the Haggadah, and he
designed many bookplates. =E2=80=9D (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica). =E2=80=
=9CJoseph
Budko=E2=80=99s Haggadah, 1921, skillfully integrated the Hebrew text w=
ith
illustrations. Budko was thought to be withdrawn and outwardly cold,
but his art was warm in a style that permitted a melding of tradition
with modernism, slavery with redemption. His [illustration of a]
faceless Jew trudges alone through history from a callous past to an
unknowable future, moving over a snow-lined path, half-frozen, but
determined and defiant. No signs or wonders for him - he knows he must
make it on his own. =E2=80=9D (Page 353 of =E2=80=9CThe way Jews lived:=

Chwolson (Daniel Avraamovich Khvolson, 1819=E2=80=931911) was a Russian
Orientalist. =E2=80=9CChwolson was born of poor, devout Jewish parents=
in
Vilna. In 1841 he went to Breslau, where Abraham *Geiger befriended him
and helped him prepare for matriculation at the university. Later he
returned to Russia, settling in St. Petersburg. In 1855 Chwolson became
a convert of the Russian Orthodox Church. He was then appointed
professor of Hebrew, Syriac, and Chaldaic philology at the University
of St. Petersburg, and three years later he was given the corresponding
chair at both the Russian Orthodox and Roman Catholic theological
academies in the same city. In this triple capacity he taught
practically every eminent Semitic scholar in Russia during the second
half of the 19th century and after. Among his disciples were the
greatest Russian Orientalists. Despite his conversion, Chwolson
remained well disposed toward Jews and Judaism and retained his
friendship with many eminent Jewish scholars and leaders. He was
particularly welcome in Jewish Orthodox circles because of his frequent
intervention on their behalf when government officials threatened the
yeshivot or the publication of the Talmud. =E2=80=9CDas letzte Passahma=
hl
Christi und der Tag seines Todes=E2=80=9D (1892) , while meant as an an=
swer to
antisemitic accusations, is a learned and detailed investigation of the
circumstances of Jesus' trial and condemnation. In it Chwolson
attempted to prove that Jesus was sentenced to death by the Sadducean
high court and that therefore the Pharisees and masses of Jews bear no
guilt. =E2=80=9D (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica). =E2=80=9CThe deep-rooted=
belief that
Jesus was crucified by the Jews being the principal cause of the
prejudice against them on the part of the Christians, Chwolson, in a
dissertation entitled "Poslyedniyaya Paskhalnaya Vecherya Isusa Christa
I Den yevo Smerti, " in "Christianskoe Chtenie, " St. Petersburg, 1875
(German translation, "Das Letzte Passamal Christi, " ib. 1892) , shows
the groundlessness of this belief. He points out that the proceedings
of the trial and condemnation of Jesus, as related in the Gospels, were
in violation of the rabbinical laws, and consequently could not have
been conducted by a Jewish tribunal. =E2=80=9D (1906 Jewish Encyclopedi=

of Gei Hizzayon, either in manuscript or in printed form, are very
rare; the complete work exists in manuscript form in the British

tradition started by Dante and followed by a number of Italian Hebrew
writers. The author describes a visit to the heavenly regions guided by
the spirit of his dead father. The main theme of the work is ethical:
Jagel uses various literary forms to try to guide his reader toward the
right moral way of life. His philosophy, deeply influenced by
Renaissance concepts including a belief in astrology and
predestination, at the same time posits the premise that man's actions
can be motivated by ethical and religious choice, and are not only
determined by fate. =E2=80=9D (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica). Yaari 1825;=

Galician-born Ariel Allweil immigrated to Palestine in 1920, and became
the first leader of the socially radical kibbutz Bitanya. The commune
was known for its intensely socialist lifestyle, with all members
working together daily and meeting nightly to share their thoughts and
struggles regarding the new world they were trying to forge. It was
during his time with Bitanya that Allweil fully began to explore his
creativity and decided to become an artist. His superb woodcuts
celebrate Jewish history and community at a time when the Zionist dream
had not yet been fulfilled. He designed two other Haggadahs, one for
the Kibbutz he lived on in the 1930=E2=80=99s, and an edition for the I=
sraeli
Defence Forces in the early 1950=E2=80=99s. He later taught painting an=

commentaries which immediately situate the importance and practice of

Haggadah: =E2=80=9CThis Hagada - printed in Jerusalem by Hamadpis Lipsh=

Press, is a reproduction of an old Venetian edition of which the above
is the original title page. It contained an Italian translation, for
which English has been substituted. " The Yale University Haggadah
collection describes the original work this facsimile is based from:
=E2=80=9CThe Venice Haggadah of 1609 is one of the most beautiful early=
printed
Haggadot. The compositional conception of this edition differs from its
precursors in the monumental layout of the page. The decorated frame
consists of two columns crowned by a pediment, and a text illustration
at the bottom of the page. Framing each lower illustration are the
figures of Moses and Aaron on one page and David and Solomon on the
other. Several pages feature two larger pictures with a picture at the
top in place of the arch. Sadly, it is not known who the designer of
the Venice Haggadah was but one thing is for sure, he was a great
artist as well as a great scholar of biblical and rabbinic literature.
The printer, Israel ben Daniel Zifroni, however, was a well known
publisher during the last quarter of the 16th century having printed
books in Basel, in Freiburg, and in Venice from 1588. The haggadah was
printed for him in the printing house of Giovanni da Gara. It appeared
simultaneously with translations in Judeo-Italian, Judeo-Spanish and
Judeo-German, the languages of the Jewish communities living in Venice
at the time. The renowned rabbi Leone da Modena, prepared the
Judeo-Italian translation. His tomb can be found today in the old
Jewish cemetary on the Lido. In terms of the range and depth of its
wood-cut illustrations, the Venice Haggadah had no peer. It included
newly conceived images of scenes that had been traditional in the
medieval haggadot such as scenes from the lives of the Patriarchs, the
plagues, and the crossing of the Red Sea, but it also included images
of biblical and midrashic themes that had not been part of the Haggadah
iconography of the past. In the illustrations that adhered to the
accepted conventions, the artist of the Venice Haggadah added details
that made the image unique. For example, the depiction of the
Israelites crossing the Red Sea shows them carrying the remains of
Joseph. No other image of that scene in previous depictions had
included that detail which alludes to the biblical passage which tells
us that Moses took Joseph=E2=80=99s bones along, thus fulfilling the vo=
w the
Israelites made to Joseph before he died (Gen. 50: 25, Ex. 13: 19).
This added detail adds immediacy and depth to the illustration and also
serves a pedagogic purpose. It emphasizes the theme of keeping the
faith in the story of the redemption from Egypt. As God kept his vow to
Abraham that He would redeem his descendents after 400 years (Gen. 15:
13) , so did Moses and the Israelites keep their vow to Joseph that
they would not leave him behind when they were redeemed. Among the
scenes that had not been depicted in previous haggadot are Abraham with
his wife and concubines, Laban and his army catching up to Jacob and
his camp, a husband and wife sleeping in separate beds so as not to
conceive children whose fate would be to be drowned by Pharaoh=E2=80=99=
s men.
An illustration that accompanies the Hallel service after the meal is a
tableau of three battles fought by Joshua and the Israelites during the
conquest of Canaan. This too is an illustration unique to the Venice
Haggada. =E2=80=9D Subjects: Haggadot - Texts. Seder - Liturgy - Texts.=

re the
descendants of the survivors (seven men and seven women) of a shipwreck
off the Konkan coast at Navgaon, about 26 miles south of Bombay. Bene
Israel tradition tells of a Jew, David Rahabi, who about the year 1000
C. E. (or, some say around 1400 C. E. ) discovered the Bene Israel in
their villages, recognized their vestigial Jewish customs, and taught
them about Judaism, preparing certain young men among them to be the
religious preceptors of the Bene Israel. They were called Kajis and
their position became hereditary. They were also recognized officially
as judges in disputes within the Bene Israel community. Somewhere along
the line the Bene Israel formed a special attachment to the Prophet
Elijah. They invoke his blessings on all auspicious occasions. Another
typically Bene Israel feature is their custom called Malida: i. E. the
preparation of a ceremonial food offering (composed of special
ingredients) accompanied by recitation of Jewish prayers, psalms, and
other appropriate biblical quotations on the occasions of purification
after childbirth; preparation for a wedding; when taking, and after
completing, a vow; after a circumcision, and for all other auspicious
occasions; whenever there is a crisis or need for divine help; for the
expression of gratitude to God; and on Tu Bi-Shevat to celebrate the
first fruits of their locale, and also to give respect to be Prophet
Elijah at Kandala, the place where he is believed to have appeared to
the Bene Israel. =E2=80=9D (Virtual Judaica Listing) Yudlov 3496; Yaari=

Reproduction of the Frankfurter Stadtbibliothek copy of the original

=E2=80=9CPlaying a pivotal role in the development of the illustrated H=
aggadah
was Gershom ben Solomon ha-Kohen's Haggadah, published in Prague in
1526. Typography of this Haggadah, which alternates small and large
letters, and contains inverted letters at the end of many lines was a
common feature of texts produced by scribes and preserved the look of
manuscript Haggadahs. Kohen's Haggadah included sixty woodcut
illustrations and played a critical role in establishing the
iconographic genres among Haggadahs well into the twentieth century.
One example is the four woodcuts on the pages describing the famed
"four sons. " Not only are all the sons clothed in Renaissance fashion,
but more importantly the "wicked son" is depicted as a traditional
soldier of the period. While his uniform would change to fit current
fashions, the wicked son appeared for many centuries in the form of a
soldier, thus linking wickedness with war for the Jewish people in the
early modern and modern periods. In addition, one can see several pages
later a pictorial rendition of Pharaoh in a tub, a theme which is
present in Haggadahs well into the twentieth century. Drawing on the
rabbinic legend that Pharaoh bathed in a tub filled with the blood of
Jewish children in order to cure himself of a disease, the Prague
Haggadah offers a pictorial tradition which enabled all participants at
the seder table to appreciate rabbinic interpretations and tradition.=

1. • THE PRATO HAGGADAH. [New York, Jewish Theolog=
ical Seminary], 2006 (ca. 1300). Full leather, 14 x 21 cm, 160 pp + commen=
tary. The Prato Haggadah (Spain, ca.1300) is an unfinished illuminated man=
uscript of 85 leaves, written on fine calf parchment. Folios 1–53 ar=
e written in a square Sephardic script and folios 54–68 are written=
in a square Italo-Ashkenazic script, using a different ink. The illuminat=
ion of 30 pages is virtually complete. 58 are unfinished, with preparatory=
drawings and possibly some gesso and color, 50 have text only and the rem=
aining pages are blank. Many of the pages have illuminated initial word pa=
nels, comparable to illuminated initials in Christian or secular manuscrip=
ts. Throughout, illustrations accompany the text, such as the depiction of=
the four sons, and illustrations of matza and maror (bitter herbs). Prepa=
ratory drawings depicting the story of Noah and the flood appear at the en=
d of the manuscript. Margins are replete with fanciful drawings of hybrid=
creatures, imaginary birds, drolleries and climbing vines. The codex is e=
specially fascinating because it demonstrates the making of a manuscript i=
n the Middle Ages, enabling us to view its illumination after the text was=
written: the preparatory drawings, the laying down of gesso in order to c=
ushion the gold leaf, the application of gold and silver leaf, and ultimat=
ely the application of pigments. The skill of the artist is of a very high=
order, both in the preparatory drawings and in the completed pages, whose=
brilliant colors look as fresh today as when they were applied. Printed a=
nd bound as an exact replica of the highest quality of the 13th Century il=
luminated manuscript in appropriate leather boards and parchment-like leav=
es. Limited edition of 250 copies. A treasure to behold. Leaf through the=
haggadah at http://www.jtslibrarytreasures.org/prato/prato.html. $4700.00=

nowitz held rabbinical posts at Ivye, Aleksot, and Sopotskin and was estee=
med as a writer of responsa and novellae, some of which were collected in=
his Sefer Orah Yashar (1903). An early member of the Kovevei Zion, Rabino=
witz attended the Second Zionist Congress, where he made a deep impression=
on both Theodor Herzl and the delegates; he was elected to the Zionist Ge=
neral Council, later serving as one of the first directors of the Jewish C=
olonial Trust. … In 1906 Rabinowitz was appointed rabbi of Liverpoo=
l, where he did much to promote traditional observance and communal harmon=
y, despite the early hostility of more Anglicized members of the local com=
munity. Together with Reines, he founded the Mizrachi world movement of re=
ligious Zionists in 1902, and he maintained his Zionist activity in Englan=
d, being elected president of the British Mizrachi organization at its fir=
st conference in 1918.” (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica). Yudlov 2351. Su=

5. • Guggenheim, Siegfried. OFFENBACHER HAGGADAH. O=
ffenbach Am Main; Verlag Des Herausgebers Guggenheim, 1927. Clothbound. 4t=
o. 97, [1] pages. 30 cm. First edition. Hebrew text with German translati=
on. Original tan cloth spine, paper over boards, printed paper label. Edit=
ed by Siegfried Guggenheim, type set by the caligrapher Rudolf Koch, with=
30 striking “Wiener Werkstaette” style hand-colored plates, i=
ncluding two maps of the Holy Land by Franz Kredel; printed in a limited e=
dition of 300 copies (Number 124 of 300) as issued, this beautifully made=
volume is printed in red and black ink on fine paper, including dozens of=
musical notations; with color illustrations throughout depicting the plag=
ue set upon Egypt and the exodus. This Weimar era fine edition is based on=
the Offenbacher Haggadah of Isaac Offenbach (1779–1850) , a famous=
“Hazzan. Isaac ben Judah, surnamed Eberst, was born in Offenbach ne=
ar Frankfurt. After he left his native town in 1799 to become a wandering=
Hazzan and musician, he began to be called, "der Offenbacher, "=
which soon became his official family name. In 1802 he settled in Deutz a=
s a tavern musician, and in 1816 moved to Cologne, where he became a music=
teacher and in about 1826 the town Hazzan, a post he held until shortly b=
efore his death. The seventh of his nine children, Jacob, was the composer=
Jacques Offenbach. Isaac Offenbach was a versatile musician, a prolific c=
omposer (mainly of synagogal works) , and a writer and translator of merit=
=2E His historical importance stems from the fact that the documentation of=
his life and work has survived almost in full. His publications are a Hag=
gadah with German translation and six appended melodies, some traditional=
and some composed by him (1838) ; a Hebrew-German youth prayer book (1839=
) ; and a number of guitar pieces. His manuscripts … include remini=
scences by his daughter, and about 20 fascicles and folders of cantorial c=
ompositions and notations of traditional melodies. Over and above their va=
lue as "cantorial" antecedents of his famous son's work, the=
se manuscripts provide both a treasure trove of the "great tradition&=
quot; of Ashkenazi Hazzanut and an instructive picture of the development=
of a Hazzan at the beginning of the Emancipation. ” (2007 Encyclope=
dia Judaica). Since reprinted in a duplicate form, in 1960, this is one of=
the remaining extant copies of the first edition. Contains laid in single=
page review of the volume from a German journal “Der Morgen”=
of February 1928, written by Otto Kattler. Yudlov 3054; Yaari 2042. Subje=
cts: Reform Judaism - Liturgy - Texts. Seder - Liturgy - Texts. Extremely=

ggadah (Ms. Prato Haggadah). Haggadah --Illustrations. Haggadah (Sephardic=
). This is the companion volume to the facsimile edition of the Prato Haga=
dah, a Sephardic Haggadah produced in Spain, ca. 1300, with incomplete ill=
uminations. The manuscript lacks a colophon, but contains an Italian censo=
r’s signature dated 1617. This companion volume (107 pages: color il=
lustrations) contains an introduction and essays by David Kraemer... [et=
al. ] and is edited by Naomi M. Steinberger. Includes bibliographical ref=
erenes. OCLC lists 4 copies worldwide (JTS, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Un=
iversity of Pennsylvania, British Library). “Nothing at all is known=
of either the patron or scribe of the Prato Haggadah, and little is known=
of its whereabouts from the time it was produced in Spain, around 1300, u=
ntil the time it was acquired by the JTS Library in l964. While the haggad=
ah's text is written in accordance with the Spanish rite, at some poin=
t additional text, which included liturgical poems of the Ashkenazic rite,=
was added, most likely in Italy. A 1617 signature of an Italian church ce=
nsor, Giovanni Domenico Carretto is proof that the manuscript actually was=
in Italy at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Nothing further is=
known of the haggadah's history until 1928, when it was in the posses=
sion of Dr. Ludwig Pollak, a native of Prague living in Rome. A distinguis=
hed humanist and collector of classical art, literary manuscripts, books a=
nd Judaica, Dr. Pollak promised the haggadah to his friend Rabbi David Pra=
to, Chief Rabbi of Rome. After disagreements with the Fascist authorities=
in the late 1930s, Rabbi Prato moved to Palestine. Dr. Pollak, his wife a=
nd son, along with other members of the Jewish community of Rome, were dep=
orted to Auschwitz, where they perished. After the war, Rabbi Prato was re=
called to his previous position in Rome and served the community until his=
death in 1951. Shortly after the Rabbi's demise, his only son Jeonath=
an, an Israeli diplomat en route to his post in Buenos Aires, was visited=
by the sister-in-law of Dr. Pollak in Rome. Knowing of Dr. Pollak's i=
ntention to donate the manuscript to the rabbi, she fulfilled the promise=
and gave the haggadah to the rabbi's only surviving heir. The Prato H=
aggadah was purchased by the JTS Library in 1964. The art of the Prato Hag=
gadah is witty and imaginative. The manuscript is replete with decorated i=
nitial word panels, foliate ornamentation, and hybrid figures. Several ill=
ustrations relate directly to the text... The Prato Haggadah contains moti=
fs common in medieval manuscripts, and many folios reflect the artist'=
s sense of humor... For reasons that remain obscure, the manuscript's=
illumination was never completed. It is precisely the unfinished nature o=
f the codex that allows the viewer to see the stages of production of an i=
lluminated manuscript: the scribal arrangement of the text; the artist'=
;s preparatory drawings; the application of gesso to cushion gold or silve=
r leaf; the addition of the leaf; the painting of a wide variety of pigmen=
ts; and the outlining of the illuminations with ink. The text of the Prato=
Haggadah is also distinctive. Although it includes the standard biblical,=
talmudic, and midrashic texts, as well as the liturgical poetry common to=
other Spanish Haggadot, the Prato Haggadah lacks all elements associated=
with the Passover meal. Kiddush, blessings for matzah and maror, instruct=
ions for the feast itself, and grace after meals are absent. Scholars have=
suggested that Haggadot of this kind may have been written to be read pub=
licly in the synagogue, after which people would return to their homes for=
the meal. This phenomenon is found in other Spanish Haggadot and is expla=
ined by medieval sources as satisfying the requirement to recount the stor=
y of the Exodus for people unable to lead or attend a seder. Many Sephardi=
c Jews immigrated to Italy following the expulsions from the Iberian Penin=
sula at the end of the fifteenth century, often taking their manuscripts w=
ith them. Though we do not know when the Prato Haggadah left Spain, the ma=
nuscript includes an Ashkenazic liturgical section probably added in north=
ern Italy in the sixteenth century and a censor's signature from Italy=
dated 1617. In addition, the volume contains many textual emendations and=
corrections inserted over several centuries. Though the Spanish or Ashken=
azic sections of the manuscript cannot be definitively dated or localized,=
scribal practices and liturgical variants provide a general overview of t=
he history of the manuscript and its owners” (JTS 2010). New conditi=

(Leghorn) was an old center of an established Sephardic community in Ital=

nsidered the finest in Italy. The Jews of Leghorn were known as Gorni (pl.=
Grana) , a “term used for the Jewish immigrants from Leghorn (Livor=
no) , who began to settle in North Africa, especially in Tunisia, from the=
17th century on. The Grana were essentially merchants; their commercial a=
ctivity was strictly connected with the Jews of Livorno. They were 400 or=
500 in 1821, their number rose to 2, 500 or 3, 000 in 1893 and to about 5=
, 000 in 1938. Until the 1940s the Gorni constituted separate congregation=
s in Tunis and in other towns of Tunisia, with their own administration, b=
et din, and communal institutions. At all times, the Grana considered them=
selves as belonging to the European culture (besides Arabic, they spoke Sp=
anish, Italian, and French) and felt separate from the ‘Tuansa, &rsq=
uo; i. E. the old Jewish residents of Tunisia. ” (2007 Encyclopedia=

rte belonged to an Italian Jewish family that settled in Leghorn (Livorno)=
at the end of the 17th century. He started to edit Hebrew prayer books in=
1821 and established his own printing house in 1834. In 1843, the local g=
overnment authorized the printing of Italian translations of Hebrew liturg=
ical texts. The activity of Salomone Belforte & Co. Was continued by t=
he family – with the forced hiatus of the period of Fascist antisemi=
tic laws and the war – until 1961, when all the equipment of the pri=
nting house was sold to an Israeli company. For almost 100 years, Salomone=

hs printed in Germany until after the Holocaust. This Haggadah, bound in b=
eige boards with a cloth backstrip, contains a dozen large plates depictin=
g illustrations from medieval german Haggadahs. Rabbi Marcus Lehmann (Meir=
; 1831–1890) , was a “German Orthodox rabbi, scholar, and writ=
er. Lehmann was born in Verden, Germany, and studied with Israel Hildeshei=
mer in Halberstadt, with S. L. Rapoport in Prague, and at Halle. In Prague=
he was friendly with the writer Solomon Kohn, who may have influenced Leh=
mann's future work as a writer. In 1853 an organ was introduced in the=
synagogue of Mainz and in 1854, when the Orthodox members formed a separa=
te congregation, Lehmann was elected their rabbi and, eventually, one of t=
he leaders and spokesmen of modern German Orthodoxy. In Mainz he founded a=
religious school which from 1859 was an elementary day school for boys an=
d girls. Lehmann wrote polemically against Reform and founded the weekly I=
sraelit (1860–1938) to counter the influence of Ludwig Philippson=
9;s Reform periodical, Allgemeine Zeitung des Judentums; the Israelit beca=
me the principal voice of German Orthodoxy. Lehmann was the main contribut=
or to the Israelit and his many historical novels, including Rabbi Joselma=
nn von Rosheim (translated into English as Tales of Yore, 1947) , and shor=
t stories were first published in it. His stories were collected in Aus Ve=
rgangenheit und Gegenwart (6 vols. 1872–88) , and many were translat=
ed or adapted into Hebrew, Judeo-Arabic, French, Hungarian, English, and o=
ther languages. … Of more scholarly importance, though also primari=
ly intended for popular instruction, are his German edition of the Haggada=
h (1906, 1914, 1926) , anonymously revised and enlarged by H. Ehrmann and=
translated into English (1969) , and his Sabbath lectures on Avot, collec=
ted as Die Sprueche der Vaeter (in installments, in: Israelit, 1895–=
1905; 3 vols. 1921/23) in which Lehmann made use of earlier commentators,=
particularly of Samuel b. Isaac 's Midrash Shemu'el, and thus mad=
e the commentators accessible to the German reader. Lehmann also published=
the tractate Berakhot of the Jerusalem Talmud with the commentary of Solo=
mon Sirillo and his own notes, Meir Nativ (1874). Lehmann translated the P=
entateuch (1873, 19136) in the Bible translation initiated by the Orthodox=
Bible Institute to counter the translation of Zunz and others. ” (2=

ry names inspire awe: Rabbi Isser Zalman Meltzer of Slutzk and Jerusalem;=
Rabbi Aharon Kotler of Kletzk and Lakewood; Rabbi Chaim Shmulevitz of Mir=

of Mesivtha Tifereth Jerusalem! Another year, another Haggadah. One often=
wonders what is left to say -- but no one will ask that question about th=
is monumental anthology. For the first time in English, this volume brings=
together the ideas and expositions of six of the greatest luminaries of c=
ontemporary times, six revered and renowned roshei yeshivah, who, collecti=
vely, were the teachers and leaders of tens, even hundreds of thousands of=
Jews, all over the world. First in ‘Arzei HaLevanon, ’ the He=
brew predecessor of this volume, and now here, their discourses on the Hag=
gadah are collected and set forth with taste and clarity. All of them were=
Torah geniuses, who saw lessons for today in the miracles of yesterday. T=
o them, the Haggadah and the story of the Exodus were guideposts for life=
in every era. Their interpretations of the Haggadah are distinguished for=
depth, incisiveness, pure faith -- and the profound depth that marked the=
ir authors as the Torah leaders of three generations. ” With dustjac=

the Educational Alliance (1937–39). Baskin also attended New York U=

printmaking. The Press has published over 100 books, including Homer'=
s Iliad (1962) and Dante's Divine Comedy (1969). … Many of Bask=

res 7 pages of correspondence by Spira. Finally, the book features a singl=
e page in which the publisher, Rabbi Erno Friedman, attempts to rebuke cla=
ims that Rabinowicz struck a deal with the Zionists in order to escape Eur=

w, Galicia in 1871 and served as Head of the Beit Din in Munkács. W=
ith the passing of his father, Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Shapira, in 1913, Chaim E=
lazar Shapira became the Admor (Grand Rabbi) of Munkács. Rabbi Chai=
m Elazar Shapira was the Admor of a well-known sect of Hasidim, renowned f=
or his Torah genius. His followers and enemies alike spoke very highly of=
him, and his influence spread far beyond Munkács, to Subcarpathian=
Rus' and Hungary. … In 1922, the town established its great ye=
shiva, "Darchei Teshuva, " that drew large numbers of students f=
rom across Hungary and Czechoslovakia and soon became one of the largest y=
eshivot in Hungary. He became head of the yeshiva, giving his lessons with=
in its walls. During his tenure, some 200 students learned at the yeshiva,=
which won recognition from the Czech authorities as an official instituti=
on for instructing rabbis. In 1930, Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shapira visited Ere=
tz Israel. One of his disciples, Rabbi Moshe Goldstein, accompanied him, w=
riting about his rebbe's visit in his book ‘Masa'ot Yerushal=
ayim’ (Jerusalem Travels). … Rabbi Chaim Elazar Shapira was k=
nown for his fierce objection to Zionism, in all of its manifestations, as=
well as immigration to Eretz Israel. … In 1937, Rabbi Chaim Elazar=
Shapira passed away, and thousands accompanied him on his final journey.=
He was buried in the Jewish cemetery in Munkács, in the tomb of th=
e Munkács Admorim, where his father, Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Shapira, and=
his grandfather, Rabbi Shlomo Shapira, were also buried. In the 1970s, th=
e Munkács Jewish cemetery, including the graves of the Admorim, was=
moved to a new cemetery in the adjoining town of Kerepec. …Rabbi C=
haim Elazar Shapira wrote numerous books, including ‘Sefer Ot Chayim=
’, ‘Sefer Divrei Kodesh’, a series of books (9 volumes)=
called Divrei Torah’, ‘Sefer Darchei Teshuva’, ‘S=

he most truly distinguished Haggadahs published in modern times, a milesto=

ramatic woodcuts show the strong influence of German Expressionism on his=

m. In Hebrew. Black board hardcover with gilt illustration on front. Passo=
ver Haggadah illustrated by Joseph Budko, with 39 woodcut historiated init=
ials and lithograph etchings. Joseph Budko (1888–1940) , was a &ldqu=
o;painter and graphic artist. Budko, who was born in Plonsk, received a tr=
aditional Jewish education. In 1902 he went to study at the art school in=
Vilna. In 1910 Budko moved to Berlin where he learned metal-chasing and a=
lso studied at the Museum of Arts and Crafts. In Berlin Budko met Hermann=
Struck who taught him the technique of etching. Eventually he also took u=
p woodcutting, lithography, and painting. In 1933 Budko settled in Palesti=
ne. In 1935 he became the director of the reopened New Bezalel school of a=
rts and crafts. Budko stressed the teaching of graphic design and utilized=
the ornamental value of the Hebrew letters. Budko's subject matter wa=
s determined by the Jewish environment in which he grew up and to which he=
returned in Jerusalem. Budko developed a style that combined the personal=
with the Jewish, being a synthesis of Jewish tradition and modern art. He=
also revived the spirit of Jewish book illustration, adapting it to moder=
n design. Among the books he illustrated are the Haggadah, and he designed=
many bookplates. ” (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica). “Joseph Budko=
’s Haggadah, 1921, skillfully integrated the Hebrew text with illust=
rations. Budko was thought to be withdrawn and outwardly cold, but his art=
was warm in a style that permitted a melding of tradition with modernism,=
slavery with redemption. His [illustration of a] faceless Jew trudges al=
one through history from a callous past to an unknowable future, moving ov=
er a snow-lined path, half-frozen, but determined and defiant. No signs or=
wonders for him - he knows he must make it on his own. ” (Page 353=

plements, containing additions and improvements of the author. D. A. Chwol=
son (Daniel Avraamovich Khvolson, 1819–1911) was a Russian Orientali=
st. “Chwolson was born of poor, devout Jewish parents in Vilna. In 1=
841 he went to Breslau, where Abraham *Geiger befriended him and helped hi=
m prepare for matriculation at the university. Later he returned to Russia=
, settling in St. Petersburg. In 1855 Chwolson became a convert of the Rus=
sian Orthodox Church. He was then appointed professor of Hebrew, Syriac, a=
nd Chaldaic philology at the University of St. Petersburg, and three years=
later he was given the corresponding chair at both the Russian Orthodox a=
nd Roman Catholic theological academies in the same city. In this triple c=
apacity he taught practically every eminent Semitic scholar in Russia duri=
ng the second half of the 19th century and after. Among his disciples were=
the greatest Russian Orientalists. Despite his conversion, Chwolson remai=
ned well disposed toward Jews and Judaism and retained his friendship with=
many eminent Jewish scholars and leaders. He was particularly welcome in=
Jewish Orthodox circles because of his frequent intervention on their beh=
alf when government officials threatened the yeshivot or the publication o=
f the Talmud. “Das letzte Passahmahl Christi und der Tag seines Tode=
s” (1892) , while meant as an answer to antisemitic accusations, is=
a learned and detailed investigation of the circumstances of Jesus' t=
rial and condemnation. In it Chwolson attempted to prove that Jesus was se=
ntenced to death by the Sadducean high court and that therefore the Pharis=
ees and masses of Jews bear no guilt. ” (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica).=
“The deep-rooted belief that Jesus was crucified by the Jews being=
the principal cause of the prejudice against them on the part of the Chri=
stians, Chwolson, in a dissertation entitled "Poslyedniyaya Paskhalna=
ya Vecherya Isusa Christa I Den yevo Smerti, " in "Christianskoe=
Chtenie, " St. Petersburg, 1875 (German translation, "Das Letzt=
e Passamal Christi, " ib. 1892) , shows the groundlessness of this be=
lief. He points out that the proceedings of the trial and condemnation of=
Jesus, as related in the Gospels, were in violation of the rabbinical law=

to explore his creativity and decided to become an artist. His superb woo=

Defence Forces in the early 1950’s. He later taught painting and gr=

THE PESSAH HAGADA. [Jerusalem] Jerusalem Bible Pub. Co. ; Hamadpis Liphs=
hitz Press, 1951. Hardbound. Folio. [24] pages. 42 cm. Facsimile edition.=
In Hebrew with English translation in the margins. Facsimile of Venice Ha=
ggadah: “This Hagada - printed in Jerusalem by Hamadpis Lipshitz Pre=
ss, is a reproduction of an old Venetian edition of which the above is the=
original title page. It contained an Italian translation, for which Engli=
sh has been substituted. " The Yale University Haggadah collection de=
scribes the original work this facsimile is based from: “The Venice=
Haggadah of 1609 is one of the most beautiful early printed Haggadot. The=
compositional conception of this edition differs from its precursors in t=
he monumental layout of the page. The decorated frame consists of two colu=
mns crowned by a pediment, and a text illustration at the bottom of the pa=
ge. Framing each lower illustration are the figures of Moses and Aaron on=
one page and David and Solomon on the other. Several pages feature two la=
rger pictures with a picture at the top in place of the arch. Sadly, it is=
not known who the designer of the Venice Haggadah was but one thing is fo=
r sure, he was a great artist as well as a great scholar of biblical and r=
abbinic literature. The printer, Israel ben Daniel Zifroni, however, was a=
well known publisher during the last quarter of the 16th century having p=
rinted books in Basel, in Freiburg, and in Venice from 1588. The haggadah=
was printed for him in the printing house of Giovanni da Gara. It appeare=
d simultaneously with translations in Judeo-Italian, Judeo-Spanish and Jud=
eo-German, the languages of the Jewish communities living in Venice at the=
time. The renowned rabbi Leone da Modena, prepared the Judeo-Italian tran=
slation. His tomb can be found today in the old Jewish cemetary on the Lid=
o. In terms of the range and depth of its wood-cut illustrations, the Veni=
ce Haggadah had no peer. It included newly conceived images of scenes that=
had been traditional in the medieval haggadot such as scenes from the liv=
es of the Patriarchs, the plagues, and the crossing of the Red Sea, but it=
also included images of biblical and midrashic themes that had not been p=
art of the Haggadah iconography of the past. In the illustrations that adh=
ered to the accepted conventions, the artist of the Venice Haggadah added=
details that made the image unique. For example, the depiction of the Isr=
aelites crossing the Red Sea shows them carrying the remains of Joseph. No=
other image of that scene in previous depictions had included that detail=
which alludes to the biblical passage which tells us that Moses took Jose=
ph’s bones along, thus fulfilling the vow the Israelites made to Jos=
eph before he died (Gen. 50: 25, Ex. 13: 19). This added detail adds immed=
iacy and depth to the illustration and also serves a pedagogic purpose. It=
emphasizes the theme of keeping the faith in the story of the redemption=
from Egypt. As God kept his vow to Abraham that He would redeem his desce=
ndents after 400 years (Gen. 15: 13) , so did Moses and the Israelites kee=
p their vow to Joseph that they would not leave him behind when they were=
redeemed. Among the scenes that had not been depicted in previous haggado=
t are Abraham with his wife and concubines, Laban and his army catching up=
to Jacob and his camp, a husband and wife sleeping in separate beds so as=
not to conceive children whose fate would be to be drowned by Pharaoh&rsq=
uo;s men. An illustration that accompanies the Hallel service after the me=
al is a tableau of three battles fought by Joshua and the Israelites durin=
g the conquest of Canaan. This too is an illustration unique to the Venice=
Haggada. ” Subjects: Haggadot - Texts. Seder - Liturgy - Texts. Jud=

With two black and white plates; the first of which depicts a Bene Israel=

the rites of the Bene Israel. The first Bene Israel Haggadah was composed=
only in 1877. “The original tradition is that the Bene Israel are t=
he descendants of the survivors (seven men and seven women) of a shipwreck=
off the Konkan coast at Navgaon, about 26 miles south of Bombay. Bene Isr=
ael tradition tells of a Jew, David Rahabi, who about the year 1000 C. E.=
(or, some say around 1400 C. E. ) discovered the Bene Israel in their vil=
lages, recognized their vestigial Jewish customs, and taught them about Ju=
daism, preparing certain young men among them to be the religious precepto=
rs of the Bene Israel. They were called Kajis and their position became he=
reditary. They were also recognized officially as judges in disputes withi=
n the Bene Israel community. Somewhere along the line the Bene Israel form=
ed a special attachment to the Prophet Elijah. They invoke his blessings o=
n all auspicious occasions. Another typically Bene Israel feature is their=
custom called Malida: i. E. the preparation of a ceremonial food offering=
(composed of special ingredients) accompanied by recitation of Jewish pra=
yers, psalms, and other appropriate biblical quotations on the occasions o=
f purification after childbirth; preparation for a wedding; when taking, a=
nd after completing, a vow; after a circumcision, and for all other auspic=
ious occasions; whenever there is a crisis or need for divine help; for th=
e expression of gratitude to God; and on Tu Bi-Shevat to celebrate the fir=
st fruits of their locale, and also to give respect to be Prophet Elijah a=

Altmann, 1926 [1526]. Clothbound. 4to. 14, [76] pages. 32 cm. Fascimile=
edition of the 1526 book. In Hebrew with accompanying introductory bookle=

et (14 pages, laid in). Edited by Benzion Katz and Heinrich Loewe. Reprodu=
ction of the Frankfurter Stadtbibliothek copy of the original edition, pri=
nted by Gershom ben Solomon, ha-Kohen, in Prague in 1526. “Playing a=
pivotal role in the development of the illustrated Haggadah was Gershom b=
en Solomon ha-Kohen's Haggadah, published in Prague in 1526. Typograph=
y of this Haggadah, which alternates small and large letters, and contains=
inverted letters at the end of many lines was a common feature of texts p=
roduced by scribes and preserved the look of manuscript Haggadahs. Kohen&#=
39;s Haggadah included sixty woodcut illustrations and played a critical r=
ole in establishing the iconographic genres among Haggadahs well into the=
twentieth century. One example is the four woodcuts on the pages describi=
ng the famed "four sons. " Not only are all the sons clothed in=
Renaissance fashion, but more importantly the "wicked son" is d=
epicted as a traditional soldier of the period. While his uniform would ch=
ange to fit current fashions, the wicked son appeared for many centuries i=
n the form of a soldier, thus linking wickedness with war for the Jewish p=
eople in the early modern and modern periods. In addition, one can see sev=
eral pages later a pictorial rendition of Pharaoh in a tub, a theme which=
is present in Haggadahs well into the twentieth century. Drawing on the r=
abbinic legend that Pharaoh bathed in a tub filled with the blood of Jewis=
h children in order to cure himself of a disease, the Prague Haggadah offe=
rs a pictorial tradition which enabled all participants at the seder table=
to appreciate rabbinic interpretations and tradition. ” (Center for=
