Rating: Summary: Messianic seder Review: First off, this Haggadah is very, very thin. There are thirty-two total pages, minimal Hebrew, and a lot of dead space and illustrations. The text is also limited in that it does not present a very Messianic feel, except for a few quotes from the New Testament and using the name Yeshua here and there. Another thing that bothered me, simply from a stylistic point of view, is that this Haggadah reads from left to right instead of right to left. I cannot recall the last time I saw a Haggadah written like that. It is really deserving of two stars, but I gave it three because there are very few Messianic Haggadot on market, and this one is actually one of the decent ones.

Rating: Summary: This book is a lie Review: It is not a haggadah. Jesus or "Yeshua" did not exist at the time of the Exodus, is not the Moshiach, and is not a deity. This is a book for Christians, not Jews.
Rating: Summary: Pretty good Review: Of the Messianic Haggadot I've read, this is one of the better ones.It has all the elements, but doesn't spend time teaching how to make charoset and things like that. It talks about how it's important to celebrate as though we, ourselves, were leaving Egypt. The blessing over the candles is slightly different than the traditional one. The only other Hebrew blessings are over the bread and wine.
Rating: Summary: messianic is not jewish Review: please be aware that the one thing jews across the entire spectrum from orthodox to reform agree upon is that it is not possible to be jewish and believe in jesus at the same time. while a person who believes in jesus and lives according to jewish teachings may well be utterly good and decent, s/he is following a tradition that is not accepted within the faith tradition known as judaism. furthermore, many messianics in my experience conceal this piece of information. i thus wish to note: caveat emptor!
Rating: Summary: Pretty good Review: This "Hagaddah" for Passover is meant to mislead the reader into thinking that it is a Jewish book. In fact, it is a "Jews for Jesus" Hagaddah, and the buyer should beware. The book fools the reader into thinking that one can be Jewish and still believe in Jesus as the Messiah, which contradicts the basic and fundamental beliefs of Judaism.

Rating: Summary: Just What I Was Looking For! Review: This booklet was exactly what I was looking for to assist in understanding and celebrating the Passover Seder meal as a believer in Jesus. The book follows the traditional Seder order, and also fits into it elements of how Jesus celebrated the Passover for the last time. I gained a new understandging of the Last Supper, and appreciation of the Jewish Holiday. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is searching for how Jesus took the traditional Seder meal and made it into a new sacrament.

Rating: Summary: An excellent tool for understanding Messiah's last meal Review: This handbook is easy to understand even if you have little background in Jewish traditions. Using it, one can either simply read about a seder meal, or actually celebrate a seder meal. Either way, your eyes will be opened to the rich symbolism that Adonai wove into His commandments to keep this feast. The authors have intertwined the words of Jeshua (Jesus) as he shared this meal with His disciples. Holy Communion will never be the same to you as you learn what Jeshua was REALLY doing and saying on that last night with His disciples. Your awe of Adonai will be deepened as you realize that the Feast of Passover was a symbolic foretelling of the sacrifice of the Lamb of God.
