Haggadah of the Roshei Yeshivah - Book Three

ArtScroll leads with the "full color soil resistant laminated cover," and on a Haggadah that is anything but a throwaway detail. A Haggadah works one night a year on a table covered in wine, charoses and saltwater, handed back and forth between children. A wipeable laminated board is the difference between a volume that survives a decade of Sedarim and one that is ruined before the second cup.

Book Three continues the Haggadah of the Roshei Yeshivah series, gathering illuminating Torah thoughts on the Haggadah from the great Torah leaders of this century, presented by Rabbi Asher Bergman together with Rabbi Yaakov Blinder. There are 299 pages of it, which is a great deal more material than any one Seder can hold - the point is to have more than you need and choose.

The 7.00 x 10.00 inch page is generous enough to read aloud from across a crowded table without squinting, and the paperback binding keeps it light in the hand while you are holding it up and talking. Many people work through a volume like this during the weeks before Pesach and mark a handful of pieces to bring to the table, rather than turning pages while everyone waits.

If your family already owns the earlier books in the series, this is the volume that keeps the Seder from repeating itself. It is also one of the more useful things you can hand a son-in-law, a rebbi or a Seder host in the week before Yom Tov.
