This Haggadah, with translation into Marathi by Haim Joseph Halleguna of Cochin, was printed for the Bene Israel, an ancient community of Jews in India. According to Bene Israel tradition, their community was founded over 2000 years ago by the descendants of Jews who survived a shipwreck off the Konkan coast at Navgaon, about 26 miles south of Bombay. The survivors settled in villages on the Konkan coast and gradually assimilated with the people around them while at the same time maintaining some Jewish customs.
