* Seder Haggadah shel Chag HaPesach K'Fi Minhag HaYisraelim HaKara'im, published by the community in Egypt (Cairo). Budapest, 1903.
This haggadah is obviously different from standard haggadahs. We will point out one of the differences, in the text of the blessing on eating matzah: "... asher kidshanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu le'echol matzah shivat yamim v'hamotzi lechem oni min ha'aretz."
Ya'ari 1618; Otzar HaHaggadot 2208.
14 pp, 18 cm.
A prominent Karaite center existed in Egypt until the establishment of the State of Israel, when many of the Karaites ascended to the Land. This siddur and haggadah, sent from Egypt to be printed in Budapest, were printed in just a few copies for the group of Egyptian Karaites. Both books open with handwritten notations in Hebrew by the Karaite beit din.
Fine-very fine condition. Aging stain. Original red binding, partially detached.
