Editing The Rebbe's Haggadah (section)

== Name of the Haggadah ==
"Likutei Ta'amim U'Minhagim" (Collection of Reasons and Customs) - Seemingly the name, which expresses merely a work of compilation, does not suit such a creative work. But it seems that the concept of 'compilation,' in the context of this book and others like it, is meant to characterize the essence of the work. 'Compilation' not in the sense of gathering, but of refining and filtering all the vast material that exists on the Haggadah, including the innovations of 'the compiler' himself, and selecting the best of the best in a clear, sharp, and lucid style that will illuminate for the reader. The 'compilation' is expressed in every detail of the Haggadah; even when 'the compiler' chose a specific commentary from among the commentators of the Haggadah, he 'compiles' it and presents from within it only the essential point that fits the goal he set for himself in his work. Thus, in essence, there is no greater work than this - the task of a rabbi's influence upon his student.
