Haggadah shel Pesach – Maaleh Beis Chorin with Map of Eretz Yisrael. Amsterdam, 1781.
Passover Haggadah following the customs of Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jewry adorned with a map of Eretz Yisrael and copper-engraved illustrations.
The Haggadah includes a detailed map of Eretz Yisrael and Bnei Yisrael’s wanderings in the Wilderness. The map was drawn by Avraham ben Yaakov Hager (convert).
The map and illustrations are based on the first Amsterdam Haggadah, published in 1695, albeit the illustrations and quality of print indicate a more advanced and superior quality of work.
The Haggadah features commentary by the Alshich, Gevuros Hashem by the Maharal of Prague and other scholars.
The Halachic instructions in the present Haggadah were printed in Ladino and Yiddish languages.
