Which means in English: Hagada prayers for the home service on the first and second nights of the Passover Translated To German and explained by Dr. R. J. Furstenthal, together with a poem 'The Passover Festival' By Salamon Pleknev Prague (Prague) And Wroclaw. Published By Jakob B. Brandeis 1901. About the translator: Raphael Jacob Fürstenthal (born in Glogau 1781; died at Breslau, February 16, 1855) was a German Jewish poet, translator, and Hebrew writer. Fürstenthal's attention was directed chiefly toward the modernization of Jewish religious services, both in and out of the synagogue, and to this end he translated into German the most important liturgical books. These versions became very popular among the German Jews; and, in spite of many subsequent translations, they have retained their popularity to the present time. To some of them, as, for instance, the Penitential Prayers, he added Hebrew commentaries. He did a lot of work in philosophical and exegetical literature. His German translations of and Hebrew commentaries to the Moreh Nebukim of Moses Maimonides and the Ḥobot ha-Lebabot of Baḥya ibn Paḳuda, and especially his large Hebrew commentary to the whole Bible, evidence his great versatility in Talmudic and Midrashic literature. Some of his more important works are: Selihot, translated into German together with a Hebrew commentary ("Meṭib Safah"), ib. 1826 "Das Judenthum in Staatsbürgerlicher Beziehung," ib. 1832 "Rabbinische Anthologie," ib. 1834 "Die Männer Gottes, oder Biblische Charakteristik," a translation of M.
