The Chasam Sofer Haggadah
The Torah and customs, stories and spirit of Rabbi Moshe Sofer of Pressburg

From the Teachings of Nechama Leibowitz
This Haggadah collects questions relating to the Seder from Nechama's Gilyonot and other writings, and organizes them according to the text of the Haggadah. It includes questions and suggested answers on the text of the Haggadah itself as well as the Biblical verses upon which the Haggadah is based. The purpose of this Haggadah is to enable individuals and families to engage in a meaningful study of the story of the Exodus from Egypt before, during, and after the Seder night experience. How does the Torah help us to understand why we drink four cups of wine at the Seder rather than five? Why does the Haggadah present the four sons in a different order to which they appear in the Torah? Why does the Haggadah provide the wicked son with an answer that is given in the Torah to the "Child who does not know how to ask"?
