- Notes
- Prepared as a model for scribes writing a Torah Scroll. The text is arranged to conform with Halachic Law relating to the Scribal arts. Each pair of facing pages represents one column of the Torah - traditionally 42 lines, starting with the letter “Vav.” The “Shira” and “Ha’azinu” portions are printed here on wider leaves and folded, to follow the wider columns required in the written Torah. It is likely that the previous owner was a Ba’al Koreh and interleaved a full unpointed Chumash in order to assist in his preparation for the reading of the Torah.
