Ukrainian Women’s Jewish Organization «Kesher Project in Ukraine» Launches First Printed Version of Haggadah in Ukrainian Language
The Ukrainian Women’s Jewish Organization «Kesher Project in Ukraine» has recently announced the release of the first printed version of Haggadah in Ukrainian language. The publication is dedicated to the upcoming holiday of Passover, which will be celebrated from April 22nd to April 30th in 2024. This initiative was made possible by the organization’s efforts to promote Jewish culture and traditions in Ukraine.
The Haggadah is a Jewish text that tells the story of the Exodus from Egypt and is read during the Passover Seder. It is a central part of the holiday celebration and is traditionally read in Hebrew. However, with the growing number of Ukrainian Jews and the desire to preserve their cultural heritage, the «Kesher Project in Ukraine» has taken a significant step in making the Haggadah accessible to the Ukrainian-speaking community.
The idea to publish the Haggadah in Ukrainian language came from the organization’s desire to connect with the younger generation of Ukrainian Jews who may not be fluent in Hebrew. By providing a translated version of the Haggadah, the organization hopes to engage more people in the celebration of Passover and educate them about their Jewish roots.
The Haggadah was translated by a team of experts and scholars, who worked tirelessly to ensure the accuracy and authenticity of the text. The translation process was a challenging task, as the Haggadah is a complex text with many layers of meaning. However, the team’s dedication and passion for preserving Jewish traditions have resulted in a high-quality translation that captures the essence of the original text.
The release of the Ukrainian version of Haggadah is a significant milestone for the «Kesher Project in Ukraine» and the Ukrainian Jewish community as a whole. It is a testament to the organization’s commitment to promoting Jewish culture and traditions in Ukraine. The printed version of the Haggadah will be distributed to Jewish communities across the country, making it more accessible to those who may not have access to digital versions.
In an interview with «GORDON» online publication, the press service of the organization stated, «We are thrilled to announce the release of the first printed version of Haggadah in Ukrainian language. This is a significant achievement for our organization and a step towards preserving our cultural heritage. We hope that this publication will bring the Ukrainian Jewish community closer together and inspire more people to celebrate Passover.»
The release of the Ukrainian version of Haggadah has received positive feedback from the Jewish community in Ukraine. Many have expressed their excitement and gratitude for this initiative, which will make the celebration of Passover more meaningful and accessible to them.
The «Kesher Project in Ukraine» is a non-profit organization that aims to promote Jewish culture, traditions, and values in Ukraine. It provides various educational and cultural programs for the Ukrainian Jewish community, including Hebrew classes, holiday celebrations, and cultural events.
In conclusion, the release of the first printed version of Haggadah in Ukrainian language by the «Kesher Project in Ukraine» is a significant achievement that will have a positive impact on the Ukrainian Jewish community. It is a testament to the organization’s dedication to preserving Jewish traditions and promoting cultural diversity in Ukraine. We hope that this initiative will inspire other organizations to take similar steps in preserving and promoting their cultural heritage.
