Map of Eretz Israel from the Amsterdam Haggadah – Engraving by Avraham ben Yaakov – Amsterdam, 1712

Map of Eretz Israel, "so that every intelligent person should know the route of the Jews' travels in the desert for forty years, and the length and breadth of the Holy Land, from the Egyptian Nile until Damascus and from the Arnon river until the Mediterranean Sea, and the portion of land allotted to each tribe…". [Copper-engraving, from a Passover Haggadah, Amsterdam: Solomon Proops, 1712].
A "Table of desert travels" (containing a list of the places the Jews encamped), a depiction of Eretz Israel as a land flowing with milk and honey, a Sukkah and various other illustrated verses, appear below the map.
The map, created by Avraham ben Yaakov Hagar (his printed signature "Avraham bar Yaakov" appears at the bottom of the plate), was first printed several years earlier - in a Passover Haggadah, Amsterdam 1695. In this map, the year was changed in the title to 1712.
