Hyksos Themed Haggadah

For Pesach this year, I decided to try something a little different. I put together a draft of a Haggadah that explores the parallels between Yetziat Mitzrayim (the Exodus) and the historical expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt. This isn’t exactly a new idea; people have been making the connection since Josephus, if not earlier. But I figured, I’d like to dig into it a bit deeper and see what kind of seder experience it might inspire.

This is a work in progress. I’m hoping to refine it over the next few years, maybe even turn it into a proper supplement or alternative Haggadah. But in the meantime, I’d really love to hear your thoughts—be gentle, but don’t hold back either.
