OAK PARK. MICHIGAN Soviet Jews Get Miami Aid Commentaries, New Definitions Add Merit to Schostak Hagada In a chapter describing the history of the Hagada, in his newly published work for the Passover Seder which he has entitled "Why Is This Night Different?" Rabbi Zev Schostak, the principal of the Detroit Akiva Hebrew Day School, states that since the 15th century 2,700 different Haga- dot have been published. He may have under- estimated the number, so vast is the field of Hagada publishing. Like so many of the nu- merous Hagada texts, the Schostak volume has much to offer. There is, for example, the brief chapter providing a history of the Hagada. Rabbi Schostak states: "The Hagada was appar- ently compiled by the Geo- nim as the oldest known version was the one found in the Siddur of Saadia Gaon (10th Century). How- ever, another early version of the Hagada appeared in `Mahzor Vitry' in the 11th Century, while the Hagada text in Maimonides' `Mis- hna Torah' may be traced to the 12th Century." Rabbi Schostak's facts are fully annotateed. His is, of course, a traditional Ha- gada, with the full Hebrew text and a modern trans- lation. The importance of his work lies in the explana-. tions about the Seder, the advice on the symbolisms, the definitions of the laws of Passover, including all necessary facts in guidance for the student and for those conducting the histor- ic program at the Passover feast. The commentaries have special merit. Taking the "Shfokh Hamatkha" as an example," Rabbi Schostak explains: 'Oddly, the verses of Shfokh Hamatkha selected from the Psalms and Lam- entations, were added to the Hallel. Why these verses were inserted at this point in the Hagada per- plexes many com- mentators. The view shared by the Abarbanel and Vilna Gaon is as intriguing as it is logical. The section of the Hagada following the meal projects the future vi- sion that God will vindicate our people. "In Shfkoh Hamatkha the Jew declares that ulti- mately God will punish all MIAMI those who destroyed our people in body and spirit. These verses are, in es- sence, part of the Hallel declaring that God will seek retribution from our enemies just as He avenged us in Egypt. We continue the Hallel with the wish that God seek revenge "not for our sake," but rather "because of Thy kindness and Thy truth." (Psalm 115 : 1 )." Thus, there is much that is new in the Schostak Ha- gada, adding it merit- oriously to the many texts that have appeared through the ages and keep being published to this day.
