Non-traditional Haggadah, Kibbutz Beit Oren 1945. Many original passages refer to the Holocaust, and the suffering of the Jewish people in general.

Rarely the section of 'I am ready To keep the mitzvah etc. that opens the Haggadah, printed on the inside of the front cover. And the passage concluding the Haggadah ‘Hasal sidur passach Kehilchato' was printed on the inside of the back cover. Also on page 5 there is a handwritten note referring to addition section, possibly written by the editor of the Haggadah.

After a few original passages that combine the traditional Haggadah with contemporary additions, a passage appear in memory of those who perished in the Holocaust: In the wandering forests, and wander in the dark and cold nights ... ' And another passage that opens with the words 'In all wayI will go' and describes the tortures of the Jewish people, ' To whom do tears weep ... In the weeping of our children in the shadow of gallows we have not heard the world ... .. '. Similarly, there is a text that opens with the words "And from the silence I heard" and "Why did we always hear every day the great sound of weeping that pierces stones, And only my hand did you tied without saving?" A passage that opens with the words: 'We sing and climb ruins and carcasses we walk and pass ... ', which all deal with the Holocaust of the Jewish people in Europe, and the suffering of the Jewish people in general.

Towards the end of the Haggadah, there are passages of encouragement for the resurrection of the Jewish people after the Holocaust: ..'... רבבות אחים ואחיות... למען כבוד העם ועתידו, and more.

The founding nucleus of Beit Oren was established in 1934 and was composed of members of the Socialist Elections from Poland and Russia. The members of the nucleus were trained in Magdiel, and on October 1, 1939, the founding nucleus immigrated to h'irbet Shalala as the penultimate settlement in the "Wall and Tower" settlements. The group moved to Beit Oren in October 1940. At the time of its establishment, it was the only Jewish settlement in the Carmel. And later joined by additional groups and training nuclei.
