If someone wants to enjoy the Seder by understanding it in the spirit of Rambam, there is an excellent sefer on the Haggadah by my friend Rabbi Benzion Buchman called Ein Maftirin - Rambam and Redemption - The Haggadah and the Seder in the Works of Rambam. It is available at all good Judaica bookstores and at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1568713541/ref=sr_11_1/002-7789249-7300840?%5Fencoding=UTF8
or for less http://www.targum.com/
Amazon.com seems to have the title wrong.
ReplyDeleteThat is really funny!
ReplyDeleteGut yomtov Mis-nagid.
If everyone buys this we'll never have to sing Dayenu again!!! (It's not in the Rambam's liturgy)
ReplyDeleteEven if all it accomplished is saving us from Dayenu, and it didn't give us Rambam's rational insights into Exodus... it'd be sufficient.
Even if it gave us Rambam's rational insights into Exodus, but didn't highlight his halachic rulings, it would be sufficient.
Even if it gave us Rambam's halachic rulings, but didn't give us his understandings of the metaphorical meaning of the Torah, it would be sufficient.
It would be sufficient. It would be sufficient. It would be sufficient.
It would be sufficient. It would be sufficient!
