By now regulars know how much I enjoy reading Velveteen Rabbi. Rachel also blogs at Radical Torah, a group blog exploring what I’ll call the Jewish lectionary. Always thoughtful, and beneficial to my own walk as a Christian.
Well, Rachel had added a PDF resource there: a Haggadah for Pesach, or a Passover Liturgy. It’s thoroughly Jewish and thoroughly Velveteen. Given the deep connections between the Passover and Easter, I wanted to highlight the PDF for my readers.
And Rachel: Thanks for the gift.
Thank you so much for these very kind words! I chuckled when I read your description of the haggadah as “thoroughly Jewish and thoroughly Velveteen” — what a wonderful phrase.
I’m so glad the haggadah is useful to you, and wish you a blessed Holy Week!
I’m not one to flatter; the compliment is sincere. God’s best to you and yours.
Thanks for the updates and information. I enjoyed your blog.
Attached is a piece I wrote on anti-Semitism and the need for the Jewish people to respond. I am the founding President of a Canadian Jewish humanitarian organization in Toronto – Ve’ahavta – and have seen anti-Semitism. It’s ugly. We need to fight it. And make friends. Thoughts?
