"A Growing Haggadah" by Rabbi Mark Hurvitz, Poway (San Diego cty)

Presently over three thousand known editions of the Haggadah exist and in recent years a new effort has begun to express the story of the Passover in contemporary terms and with allusions to current struggles. One of the many unreciprocated gifts of the Kibbutz Movement to the Jewish people is the renewed awareness of the origin of much of our ritual life in the natural world. The choice of the Partizans of the Warsaw Ghetto to begin their revolt on the first night of Passover was based, not only on the tactical need of the moment, but their understanding of the meaning of the Passover story. Among those haggadot prepared for the English reading world, perhaps first of these was The New Haggadah (Behrman House Inc., New York, NY, revised edition 1942), edited by Mordecai Kaplan, which attempted a minor reconstruction of the text. Since the late 1960's the numbers of new Haggadot have expanded greatly and they touch on all aspects of "liberation" (though primarily as it is expressed in political terms). Many exist only in typescript or xerox editions. Among the more unusual and lesser known express the meaning of liberation from a variety of specific perspectives. These include

    * humanism: "Hurvitz' Humanist Haggadah" (Hurvitz, Nathan, Los Angeles, 1968, typescript)
    * women's liberation: "Women's Seder of Liberation" (no author, Los Angeles, 1976, xerox edition)
    * radical politics: "A Radical Haggadah for Passover" (Waskow, Arthur, Ramparts, April 1969, p. 25-33), "4th World Haggadah" (Harris, Joel and Jack Schuldenfrei, World Union of Jewish Students, London, 1970)
    * those that strive for non-gender-linked terminology: "The Telling; A Loving Haggadah for Passover" (ben Khayyim, Dov, ed., Rakhamim Publications, Oakland, CA, 1983), "Gates of Freedom: A Passover Haggadah" (Stern, Chaim, New Star Press, Bedford, NY, 1981)
    * one that includes the liberation of the Palestinian people: "The Seder of the Children of Abraham" (Bartnoff, Devorah, et. al. pp 38-72, in New Jewish Agenda, comp. The Shalom Seders, Three Haggadahs, Adama Books, 1984)
    * expressing opposition to apartheid: "Seder for Freedom in Southern Africa" (Jews Against Apartheid, London, 1987)
* and, not least, vegetarian: "Haggadah for the Liberated Lamb" (Kalechofsky, Roberta, Micha Publications, Marbelhead, MA, 1985)

The process is likely to continue. New Haggadot recently published make children greater participants in the Seder.

I also participate in this development. This Haggadah, which has now gone through numerous editions, struggles with the concept of liberation itself and suggests we may never actually complete the process.

(To be sung to the the tune of "These are a few of my favorite things" from Mary Poppins)

Cleaning and cooking and so many dishes
Out with the hametz, no pasta, no knishes
Fish that's gefillted, horseradish that stings
These are a few of our Passover things.

Matzah and karpas and chopped up haroset
Shankbones and kiddish and yiddish neuroses
Tante who kvetches and uncle who sings
These are a few of our Passover things.

Motzi and maror and trouble with Pharoahs
Famines and locusts and slaves with wheelbarrows
Matzah balls floating and eggshell that clings
These are a few of our Passover things.

When the plagues strike
When the lice bite
When we're feeling sad
We simply remember our Passover things
And then we don't feel so bad.

        I've been cooking for this seder 
        Erev Pesach day 
        Making matzah balls and kugel 
        So we'll feast as well as pray 
        Can't you smell the pareve sponge cake 
        It rises up so little without yeast 
        Can't you hear our voices singing 
        At this joyous Pesach feast 
        Mama, you can cook 
        Mama, you can cook 
        Milchidik and fleishidik and pareve, too 
        Mama, you can stew 
        Mama, you can stew 
        Your seder food's delicious and we thank you.

                  Q. What did the blind man say when handed a matzah?
                  A. "Who wrote this nonsense?"
