In this episode, we go back to one of the earliest examples of responsa literature: The Siddur of Rav Amram Gaon. Yosef Lindell provides us with a framework for understanding the fluidity and development the Haggadah and uses it as a case study in understanding the development of Jewish liturgy, from the ancient Talmuds to the Rabbinite-Karaite controversies, Ashkenazic-Sephardic divergences and much more! The text for the responsum can be found here: https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=43020&st=&pgnum=82
