Taylor Swift has entered her “Egypt era” as Jewish Swifties can now purchase a Taylor Swift-themed Haggadah (The Chosen People’s Version).

The Unofficial Taylor Swift Haggadah, written by Na’ama Ben-David and illustrated by Shelley Atlas Serber, features vibrant full-coloured pages, Taylor Swift facts and trivia and references to Swift’s discography, with parallels drawn between the singer’s music and the story of Passover.

Three-time children’s book author Ben-David said the inspiration for the themed Haggadah came through her teenage daughter, who is an avid Swiftie: “She loves talking about Taylor Swift; her music, her lyrics and the inspirational messages she gets from listening to the albums,” Ben-David said. “When we started talking about Pesach, she remarked that there are a lot of parallels between the story and themes of Pesach and Taylor Swift's music - and the idea was born.”
