    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the place of the biblical leader Moses in the Haggadah Jewish text. The author claims that the lack of reference to the role of Moses in the Exodus biblical event serves to place emphasis on the role of God in redemption. He examines the significance of the two references to Moses in the Haggadah, namely, in the narratives of the burning bush and at the finale of the Exodus event.
