Women At The Seder: A Passover Haggadah (English and Hebrew Edition)

Women at the Seder is a traditional Passover Haggadah whose commentary celebrates one of the great transformations of the Torah community during this past century: the emergence of women from the privacy of their home "tents" to the public arena of the synagogue and Torah study halls without abandoning in any way their central traditional role as the cornerstone of the home and family.
The commentary includes rabbinic comments on women associated with the Exodus, a discussion of those relevant aspects of Jewish law that apply to women, and homilies-divrei Torah by women for the seder, many written especially for this volume. In a generation, it should seem quaint that it was noteworthy that women's divrei Torah constituted a significant part of a Haggadah commentary. That will be cause for yet additional rejoicing, as women's contributions on all levels of Torah scholarship will have become even more commonplace.
