Rare Very Large Torah Bible Leaf From The Book Of ExodusPoland ca 350-400 yrs old
Exodus - 24:1 - 34:10\"God\'s instructions to make the Tabernacleand its furnishings\"
The Scroll measures approx height 28\" X Length 75\"
Rare large Manuscript hand-written Torah Bible Scroll leaf from the book of Exodus \"The Tabernacle and its furnishings\" hand written on genuine calf parchment. The sofer (or scribe) follows the Early Ashkenazi tradition and comply with rules and laws of the Ashkenazi Vellish \"Kabbalah\" script. It preserves extremely early scribal Ashkenazi traditions and preserves interesting textual anomalies and is also filled with Kabbalistic anomalies characteristic predominantly of early scribal traditions, which was prevalent in Medieval Germany & Poland.
The Torah Scroll has survived through the Nazi Holocaust and the atrocities of WWII and came from Poland with other judaic items that have survived the Holocaust. The scroll is in very good condition considering its age, with a few corrected letters. It is extremely carefully and beautifully written.
There is strong evidence as to the Poland origin of the present scroll. Torah scrolls have no punctuation, vowel signs, signatures, colophons, or dates, making the task of identifying the time and place of a particular scroll notoriously difficult. Scholars are able, with varying degrees of success and accuracy, to determine both the geographic origin of a torah scroll as well as its approximate date of creation, by the analysis of the scribal variants distinctive to a particular region or group. Various textual traditions, section divisions and layout as well as occasional halakhic references also help to determine when and where certain customs or practices obtained. The present Scroll, has the ancient scribal tradition of the Vellish Script and of special tagin (crowns or tittles) and the \"anomalous, curved and spiral letters, seen mostly on scrolls that came from Poland & Germany.
The uses of Cabbalistic spirals and flourishes throughout. There are many special characters and Spirals all over in this Torah like the spiral \"Ayin\" [ע] a \'Pe lefufa\' or spiral Pe [ פ] having its \'nose\' twisted inwards (it was also called \'a double Pe\' that means a Pe having another inside), Nun [ נ] and Ayin [ ע] with a tail etc. This tradition, which was prevalent in Mediaeval Northern France Germany & Poland. The scribal tradition of the \'anomalous, curved and spiral letters\' the present Torah-scroll into a special rarity. These special characters has a kabalistic meaning to them but because the confusion of where and how to draw them the scribes were ordered to stop adding them to the torah and for this you do not see these characteristics on modern scrolls. This leaf is decorated with those special beautiful characters and crowns as you can see in the pictures.
In the present Scroll, a distinct blank space at the end of each verse giving a double space between the verses. In which Elazar of Worms (Rokeah, fl. 13th century) noted, to include such spaces, Samson ben Eliezer, author of the Barukh she-Amar notes that, even in his day, only the scribes of Poland remained meticulous in the observance of this particular tradition. This seems to be a strong indicator that it was written in Poland.
In the present scroll there is evidence of a very ancient tradition not seen in other scrolls,It was an ancient Ashkenazi custom to make two Letters \'ק in the Torah with the foot glued to the roof(לשמצה בקמיהם בפרשת העגל, וכן העומדים על הפקודים בפרשת נשא),which is actually the earliest form of \'ק letter. The origin of the custom is in the book Thagi, a midrashic composition from the time of the geniuses and it is mentioned in the manuscripts of the Masoretic Text and in the books of the arbitrators throughout the generations who have discussed many of the correctness of the custom.Although this was a common custom in Ashkenazi until the 18th century, it is extremely rare to find a Torah scroll that was not erased and repaired to make a regular \'ק.
הק\' הדבוקה, יש בשני מקומות בתורה \'הם העומדים על הפקודים\' [כמה שורות אחרי ברכת כהנים בפרשת נשא] ו\'לשמצה בקמיהם\' [בתחילת פרשת העגל, אחרי \'ויחל משה\'], מדובר במסורת קדומה מאוד, שמופיע בספר תאגי - רשימת אותיות ותגים מיוחדים מתקופת הגאונים. ואלו דברי המנחת ש\"י: מנחת שי שמות פרק לב
בְקָמֵיהֶם: כתו\' בביאורי מהר\"ר אייזיק שטיין על מצות עשה מהסמ\"ג בהלכו\' ס\"ת, זל\"ש, מצאתי לשמצה בקמיהם, העמדים על הפקדים (פ\' נשא), הסופרים מגיעי\' הרגל בשני הקו\"פין הללו... קבלה איש מפי איש, ע\"כ. וכן בתיקון ס\"ת ישן ובספר תאגי נכתב עליהם ב\' קו\"ף צריכות ליגע ולא מזייני. גם במסורת הדפוס כתוב ב\' קו\"פין דבוקי\' בתורה, בקמיהם, הם העמדים על הפקדים, עכ\"ל
.הפוסקים דנו על זה הרבה ופסלו, ולכן נדיר מאוד למצוא בצורה בלתי מתוקנת
