The Amsterdam Haggadah
October 25, 2026
An Amsterdam Haggadah from 1712 brings together Ashkenazi and Sephardic traditions, three Jewish languages, and the visual culture of Christian Europe. Its extraordinary illustrations were created by a former Protestant pastor who converted to Judaism. Even its missing map opens a window onto the messianic hopes and anxieties of early modern Jewish Europe.
