In this second Haggadah to be printed in Cairo, the text is printed in Arabic letters. In a fascinating indication of the loyalty which the Egyptian Jews felt toward their homeland - the second page features an image of a crescent moon with three stars. This emblem was associated with the Egyptian flag from the mid-19th century and used in the first official national flag of modern Egypt in 1923.
