About This Text
Author: Benjamin David Rabinowitz
Composed: c.1840 – c.1870 CE
Written by Rabbi Benjamin David Rabinowitz of Warsaw, Efod Bad is a commentary on the Pesach Haggadah, first published in 1872. The concept of divine providence appears throughout the commentary. Rabbi Rabinowitz quotes Rambam’s Guide to the Perplexed, the Kuzari, the Zohar, the Bible, Talmud, and halakhic codes. Although Rabinowitz is described as a “famous preacher,” little more is known about his life.
