This text is a Passover Haggadah with the full Hebrew and English texts laid out alongside the Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks' commentary. Also included are introductory essays that examine particular issues related to Passover. The Haggadah attempts to strike into new territory between the traditional extremes of full-colour coffee table books and text-heavy commentaries, with the lively writing of the Chief Rabbi placed alongside the traditional texts.
