    The Skirball Haggadah

    (2020)

    • Robert Kirschner,
    • Oded Ezer

    Skirball Cultural Center

    The Skirball Haggadah seeks to connect the generations of Jews who have celebrated the story of the Exodus in centuries past and to make that story deeply relevant to the present. It follows the sequence of rituals and blessings derived from age-old Jewish practice. Yet its primary focus is on the social relevance of Passover: the human quest to overcome adversity, to build a just and compassionate community, and to bequeath it to future generations.
