Dear Herschel,

Pesach is three weeks away, and we have something we think you'll want to know about. 

This Sunday, March 15 at 12:30 PM EST, join us for the official launch event of Echoes of Egypt: A Haggada, a new Koren publication by Rabbi Dr. Joshua Berman, Professor of Tanakh at Bar-Ilan University. The event is free and open to all. Rabbi Berman himself will be presenting and taking questions. 

Rabbi Berman will examine how the Torah's account of the Exodus can be read in light of ancient Egyptian political theology and royal iconography. Drawing on inscriptions and reliefs from the New Kingdom period, including the monumental accounts of Ramesses II and the Battle of Kadesh, he'll walk through the literary and conceptual parallels between Egyptian imperial propaganda and biblical texts like the Song at the Sea and the description of the Mishkan. The language of the "mighty hand." How the Torah doesn't just reject Egypt's symbols of power, it answers them. 

He'll also introduce Echoes of Egypt: A Haggada itself. Images from Egyptian art and archaeology appear directly in the commentary, on the same spread as the Haggada text, functioning as interpretation rather than illustration. The commentary draws on Rambam, Ramban, and Rav Kook alongside contemporary scholarship, situating Yetziat Mitzrayim within its ancient Near Eastern context. 

Live Q&A to follow. 


This is the kind of talk that changes how you read the Haggada. We hope you'll join us.
