Book Synopsis

This book reveals how every facet of the Passover holiday - and the family seder - can deepen your experience of life, help fulfill the quest within your soul and revitalize your Jewish identity. For those who find the text of the Haggadah, and the prayers and practices of the seder to be remote and archaic - this is the book you've been looking for. The Passover Survival Kit allows you to experience one of the centerpieces of Jewish life as insightful, spiritually provocative and relevant to issues of personal growth and the everyday challenges of life.
