Carlebach Haggadah: Seder Night with Reb Shlomo FROM THE PUBLISHER
"Everyone knows about Reb Shlomo Carlebach - or do they really? The singer, the guitarist, the composer: These are sides to Reb Shlomo that are well known, but few understood that he was, first and foremost, a great teacher of Torah. In fact, "Torah for the masses" might have served as his slogan. Reb Shlomo knew better than anyone how to deliver the teachings of authentic Judaism to every individual. Just as his songs were the ones you wanted to hear, he taught Torah the way each of us needed to be taught." The Carlebach Haggadah is intended to carry on his work: It aims at delivering the message of Passover the way people need to hear it today. No single book can give more than a glimpse into Reb Shlomo's vast storehouse of knowledge and wisdom. All the same, this Haggadah has plenty to teach about God and the universe, man and his world, and a special blend of love and spirituality, a message unprecedented in our recent history.
