It is now considered a classic. In addition to acknowledging the historical Exodus as do traditional haggadot, it is grounded on the ideas that it is up to us to heal the planet (Tikkun Olam) and also to free ourselves from whatever holds us back from being the best people we can be. In essence, it nurtures a very interactive Seder that encourages personal liberation.
It was the first (and may still be the only) haggadah to receive rabbinic support (haskamot) from prominent rabbis across the Judaic denominational landscape, from the late Chabad Chassidic leader Rebbe Menachem Mendel Shneerson z”l, the Bostonner Rebbe, Reb Levi Yitzchak Horowitz z"l, all the way to Reb Zalman Schachter Shalomi z”l, founder of the Jewish Renewal Movement.
