The family friendly TREE OF LIFE HAGGADAH AND SONGBOOK inspires Passover Seders that embrace traditional Judaism in a contemporary context, while resonating with Seder participants from diverse spiritual and cultural backgrounds. Providing meaningful narrative that joyfully engages the participants in a story of finding freedom and reaching our own promised lands, we are able to reflect on the journey of the Jewish people who followed their dreams almost 4000 years ago, while setting intentions for our own goals of internal and external freedom.

The accompanying Songbook contains 12 Passover songs with musical notation and English transliterations, making it easy to enjoy Seders full of song and light, generation after generation.

EXCERPT: PRELUDE TO THE SEDER
The days, weeks and months have passed and we enter the spring season once again. Though we pass through the same festivals in the same seasons year after year, we move not in a circle, but in a spiral. Unlike the circle that repeats infinitely, the spiral is additive and each time we pass through the same season, it is with spiritual breadth and expansion acquired in the year past. It is our prayer to understand and experience gratitude for the gifts that come with this spiritual expansion.

EXCERPT: MAGGID
