"The Union Haggadah," edited by The Central Conference of American Rabbis, presents a cherished and significant text central to Jewish tradition and culture. This Haggadah, a guide to the Seder dinner service during Pesach (Passover), is an edition from the early 20th century, reflecting the Reform Jewish perspective in the United States. It meticulously details the ceremonial practices, symbolically commemorating the liberation of the Jews from Egyptian bondage.

Additionally, an appendix offers insightful background on the historical and cultural significance of Pesach, enriching the reader's understanding of this pivotal Jewish festival.


Accompanied by exquisite black and white illustrations and initials by Isidore Lipton, this online edition of "The Union Haggadah" is visually stunning. It's a valuable resource for those wishing to conduct their own Seder or to deepen their appreciation of Jewish heritage, blending ritual guidance with historical context in a beautifully presented format.
