Sharon Schwartz Lynne - The Four Questions - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: Why is this night different from all other nights? Every year when families gather for the Passover holiday the youngest child poses that question as part of the poetic Four Questions near the start of the Seder. The answers are no less than the story of a people bound in slavery their suffering in a foreign land and their ultimate liberation the story of Passover. Here the Four Questions are presented in breathtakingly luminous paintings by Ori Sherman. Whimsical animals parade through a unique format that can be read straight through in English or turned upside down to focus on the delicate Hebrew calligraphy and ingenious split - frame pictures. Each side of the Seder table can see its own variation of the richly colored scenes as elephants eat matzoh monkeys dip herbs into water and lions recline in newfound freedom. Author Lynne Sharon Schwartz answers the questions with refreshing clarity providing insight into the symbols and rituals of the holiday. Experience a glorious art book a beautiful gift for the kids who find the afikomen and a wonderful way to experience Passover and its unique celebration of freedom.
