Haggadah for Jews and Buddhists: A Passover Ritual

Haggadah for Jews & Buddhists: A Passover Ritual
by: Elizabeth Pearce-Glassheim


Editorial Review:

A discussion provoking retelling of the traditional Passover ritual, linking its meaning with age-old Buddhist concepts. A traditional haggadah in format, this has been written for a mixed family.

Haggadah for Jews & Buddhists illuminates the concepts embedded in the Biblical story of the sacred exodus from slavery to freedom. This journey applies to everyone as they face life's challenges and grow stronger through meeting them. This telling has meaning for all thoughtful adults: Buddhists, Traditional and Secular Jews and people of all beliefs and spiritualities.

An Interfaith Passover:

So she's uniquely qualified to put together this Haggadah which, while remaining loyal to the richness of Jewish spirituality and the particularity of the Passover celebration, also speaks to equally... more info

A Haggadah to engage and include.:

This lovely haggadah, inspired by the Santa Cruz Haggadah and adroitly edited by Elizabeth Pearce-Glassheim, made for a very emotional "telling" in our home last year.
The editor and those who contributed, have managed to faithfully weave the two traditions together without loss of necessary detail, ritual or richness.
Even to the casual eye, great care has been taken to assure that Jewish tradition flows naturally through the landscape of Buddhist belief, enhancing, not detracting.

Highly recommended:

We used the Haggadah for Jews and Buddhists last year, combined with the Internet Haggadah, a more standard approach. Surprisingly we kept coming back to the H4JB. I come from an orthodox tradition, and didn't anticipate that we'd go so non-traditional.
Our guests included, adults and children, Jews with orthodox and conservative backgrounds, Jews who had converted, and non-Jews. The message in this haggadah is universal, and touched everyone. Yet it maintains the structure and spirit of the... more info
