For the first time, exquisite and rarely seen ancient Hebrew
manuscripts are presented in this stunning volume as
“encounters”, highlighting their similarities and differences
in a striking, visual conversation between manuscripts from two
outstanding collections. This cleverly designed and richly
illustrated dual language English and Hebrew publication will
accompany the first temporary exhibition in the new building of the
National Library of Israel in Jerusalem. It draws its objects from
both the Library’s collection and the highly prestigious,
privately owned Braginsky Collection of Zurich, Switzerland.
Vibrant new photography brings these manuscripts, printed books,
Esther Scrolls and marriage contracts to life. Engaging texts
examine such themes as community, migration, spirituality,
mysticism, and inspiration, which will be enlightening to all
interested in Hebrew manuscripts and the history and culture of the
Jewish people. Text in English and Hebrew.
