This Hagadah was issued by the Joodsche Coördinatie Commissie voor het bevrijde Nederlandsche gebied ("Jewish Coordinating Commission for the Liberated Netherlands Governmment") in the southern, liberated part of the country, while the north was still occupied by the Germans. In their foreword the editors write that due to the annihilation of the Jews by the Germans, Hebrew books have become totally unavailable (p. 4).
