Book excerpt: Winner of the 2014 Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature A thousand years ago, the most perfect copy of the Hebrew Bible was written. It was kept safe through one upheaval after another in the Middle East, and by the 1940s it was housed in a dark grotto in Aleppo, Syria, and had become known around the world as the Aleppo Codex. Journalist Matti Friedman’s true-life detective story traces how this precious manuscript was smuggled from its hiding place in Syria into the newly founded state of Israel and how and why many of its most sacred and valuable pages went missing. It’s a tale that involves grizzled secret agents, pious clergymen, shrewd antiquities collectors, and highly placed national figures who, as it turns out, would do anything to get their hands on an ancient, decaying book. What it reveals are uncomfortable truths about greed, state cover-ups, and the fascinating role of historical treasures in creating a national identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With many of these teachings being made available in print for the first time at the behest of Dr. Asher's many students worldwide, "The Asher Codex" is the first compilation of critical individual Torah teachings culminating from thirty plus years of study and teaching by Dr. Asher. This first edition published this year - 2013, R' Shmuel Asher "The Asher Codex" will prove to be a leading reference work on the major ancient to contemporary religious cult systems, a resource text for those people truly searching for the original paths, and willing to put in the required study to know it. Unlike Dr. Asher's previous books, "The Asher Codex" is a Masters level resource guide to aid those attempting to learn and teach others. With an emphasis on the currently active, proselytizing cults, and the predecessor ancient cults that led us to this point, the Asher Codex will continue to be a crucial tool in counter-cult ministry and evangelism, a driving force emphasizing the Creators Original truths for all man. While remaining true to his first three books tone and information, this first time compilation of Dr. Asher's controversial teachings, edited by Neshamah Eliot, includes substantial new information beyond that of his previously public teachings. Scholarly yet readable, an engaging unique voice in defense of the Creators original, but suppressed instruction to man. Albeit all of Dr. Asher's books have touched on the false Judah's influence over the original path, "The Asher Codex" evaluates Judah's ancient cultic history, beliefs, and influence over the texts and rituals that have come forward into our modern Western religions, in much greater detail. This is an invaluable reference work for both scholars and laypeople, contrasting individual teachings with a more original cultural Hebraic understanding, and linguistically corrected biblical theology. Most readers who are leaving their modern religious orders behind in search of the original path will find apologetics help in dealing with their cults, and a new ability to refute their old arguments with stiff factual, detailed information. Some of the chapters and topics include: The Circular Logic of Man What's in a Name Who is Judah? The Sacrifices of Judah Origins of the Talmud Ancient Laws & Languages The Two Laws Historical Proof from Egypt to Moshe Kill Your Speed, Not Your Camel Original Torah for all Man Key Words of Genesis Evening to Pagan Evening 3 Feasts or 4 Renewals?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Crown of Aleppo, Hayim Tawil and Bernard Schneider tell the incredible story of the survival, against all odds, of the Aleppo Codex—one of the most authoritative and accurate traditional Masoretic texts of the Bible. Completed circa 939 in Tiberias, the Crown was created by exacting Tiberian scribes who copied the entire Bible into book form, adding annotations, vowel and cantillation marks, and precise commentary. Praised by Torah scholars for centuries after its writing, the Crown passed through history until the 15th century when it was housed in the Great Synagogue of Aleppo, Syria. When the synagogue was burned in the 1947 pogrom, the codex was thought to be destroyed, lost forever. That is where its great mystery begins. Miraculously, a significant portion of the Crown of Aleppo survived the fire and was smuggled from the synagogue ruins to an unknown location— presumably within the Aleppan Jewish community. Ten years later, the surviving pages of the codex were secretly brought to Israel and finally moved to their current location in the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most accurate edition of the Leningrad Codex in print, the Biblia Hebraica Leningradensia presents a thoroughly revised, reset, and redesigned edition of the Hebrew Bible meticulously prepared by renowned masoretic scholar Aron Dotan. The BHL includes features that suit it for research, classroom, and liturgical use. Scholars will find this a welcome edition of the Leningrad Codex, the oldest complete manuscript of the Hebrew Bible, whose text and layout it precisely follows. A foreword and five appendices provide the researcher with important details and distinctions about the codex. In addition to being a scientific edition, it was originally commissioned in Israel to follow the necessary adaptations that qualify it for Jewish liturgical use, such as divisions into weekly portions and their subdivisions for synagogue reading. Students, too, will find here an ideal text for classroom use, with an uncluttered format and printing that is matchless for its readability.

This book was released on 1998-04-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the barriers involved in teaching students of Biblical Hebrew about the Masorah is the lack of introductory literature on the subject. Although a lot of information about the Masorah is available in print, most of it is in technical professional journals or encyclopedia articles. Scattered about in disparate sources, often not in English, this literature is easier to ignore than it is to incorporate into introductory Hebrew classes. As a result, most students of Biblical Hebrew complete their studies without any background on the Masorah. This volume fills this gap by providing an introduction and glossary to the Masorah of the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia. Although the volume could be used by any student of the Hebrew Bible, it is specifically designed to be helpful for students who are just learning Hebrew. Thus it can serve as an important parallel text for second semester or second year Hebrew courses. The introductory chapters give an overview of the field of Masoretic studies and explain the mechanics of using the Masorah of BHS. The annotated glossary provides students with definitions and explanations for most of the terms used in BHS, including examples.

Book excerpt: This volume brings together papers relating to the pronunciation of Semitic languages and the representation of their pronunciation in written form. The papers focus on sources representative of a period that stretches from late antiquity until the Middle Ages. A large proportion of them concern reading traditions of Biblical Hebrew, especially the vocalisation notation systems used to represent them. Also discussed are orthography and the written representation of prosody. Beyond Biblical Hebrew, there are studies concerning Punic, Biblical Aramaic, Syriac, and Arabic, as well as post-biblical traditions of Hebrew such as piyyuṭ and medieval Hebrew poetry. There were many parallels and interactions between these various language traditions and the volume demonstrates that important insights can be gained from such a wide range of perspectives across different historical periods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keter Yerushalayim, the Jerusalem Crown, is the first edition of the Aleppo Codex as a printed Bible. This codex is the oldest known complete manuscript of the Hebrew Bible. The famous grammarian and scribe Aaron ben Asher inserted the vocalization signs, accentuation marks and the Masorah. Because he also proofread the manuscript several times over, it became the authoritative text due to its accepted accuracy. After a long odyssey the codex found its way to Jerusalem in 1958, with unfortunately a major portion missing. In 1976 a facsimile of the manuscript was published and inspired the book edition closely resembling the original text. Thanks to the painstaking work of the renowned Scholar Rabbi Mordechai Breuer, the lost parts - almost the entire Pentateuch - could be reconstructed. To emulate the original, the Jerusalem Crown is laid out in three columns and employs a unique typeface re-creating the calligraphy of the Aleppo Codex. The census for the chapters and verses as well as the names of the weekly torah portions and their divisions for the synagogal reading were added. A short appendix explains the principles of the text recreation and lists the deviations from the standard Leningrad Codex. Dr. Mordechai Glatzer, a globally recognized expert in the history of printing, edited the companion volume. It contains contributions on various aspects of the manuscript's significance and an in-depth description of its history. Notably, Dr. Yosef Ofer's introduction to the Masorah clarifies from where the codex's authority stems and why its text can be regarded as nearly error free. The documentation folder of the Keter Yerushalayim contains an original set of pages, the Book of Ruth, and the original decorative front page with its gold printed title as a sample booklet, complete with an embossed cover of heavy crimson paper. There is also a sample chapter of the companion volume included in the set which is presented in a gold-embossed dark-blue folder of raw silk. The charge for the documentation kit will be credited if a copy of the numbered Special Edition is ordered subsequently.

Book excerpt: Dr. Asher's ""The Greater Exodus"" is a unique unveiling of a long-hidden End-Times prophecy which has been obscured from the multitudes it is meant for until he began openly teaching it in 1982. Since its publication, others have begun adopting their own variations of this prophetic truth, however, Dr. Asher's work on this subject continues to be the only original understanding sourced from the ancient Hebrew culture. As with all his work, this teaching is also void of any post-Mosaic religious dogma. The reader is assured, that the difference between this prophecies understanding, versus those which came after, is, that unlike all the known modern prophetic end-times theories, this simple and scriptural understanding is thoroughly provable point by point. Moreover, this prophecy proves to be the HOPE of the Eternal Creators absolute and unwavering provisions for His obedient people through those expected calamities. We give you, "The Greater Exodus."

This is the second collection of interdisciplinary articles on Hebrew binding fragments presenting current scholarship and its international scope. From the contemporary perspective, the fragments of medieval Hebrew manuscripts preserved until today, through their numbers (estimated 30,000 fragments, so more than double of the number of the known Hebrew volumes produced in medieval Europe ), the texts they carry (some of them have been previously unknown), the insights into book making techniques and finally their economic impact, are an unprecedented source for our knowledge of the Hebrew book culture and literacy as well as the economic and intellectual exchanges between the Jewish minority and their non-Jewish neighbours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the Essene gospels of peace trying to teach us? Few know! While most modern Christian theologians and scholars dismiss the texts as fake or worse - as conjured satanic teachings - it appears those who uncovered their hidden resting place and later translated them, were missing some vital knowledge. Far more detail lyes hidden within the culture of a people than within the language on their parchment. This is a precept that virtually everyone outside of our Hebrew culture, along with those rebellious cousins within the halls of Babylonian Judaism have either never knew, or purposely redirected. If you never knew that a Law existed, then how would it benefit you to read the instructional texts from a people whose culture only lives on in so few? With the majority of those few totally unwilling to share its vital details because they have long sought another god and another law! How would you identify that another, more ancient and original law from the Eternal Creator existed within any specific text when those who choose evil over good actively obscured the cultural knowledge proving that law extant, only later to abscond with the entirety of those texts for thousands of years? There must be a reason they hid them! Now we can better understand how modern translators who were reared in other religions far and away culturally from the original ancient Hebrew culture and language, while also heavily influenced by their personal religion & culture, missed the mark in so many areas as to render that work confusing at best. And at worst, impotent. First and foremost, I will tell you with great authority on the subject that the Essene sects spiritual path, which was NOT a religion, was based solely on what should be known as the 1st law, which is the law that they knew and kept. That law was NOT the law of the Judeans. It was, however, the Law that Jesus taught, but also the law that has never been taught inside the body of Christianity. Nor has anyone inside of Christianity or Judaism identified the 1st Law from these "Essene Gospel of Peace" texts as being the most important and holy precept for all the souls of man in over 2000 years! Even the title name has been misleading because it does not steer the reader past the texts being more than an apocryphal curiosity that is generally dismissed as near heresy by their religious leaders. Beyond doubt the Law of the Essene's and their texts, once rendered correctly and clearly understandable, are nothing less than the Torah - (Instruction) manual for all those who have already found their return vector back to the Eternal Creator via His 1st Law of the Everlasting Agreement; as well as for those truly searching past the decay of corporatized religions and on their way back to this path.

Book excerpt: This volume offers new calendrical models and methodologies for reading, dating, and interpreting the general significance of the Madrid Codex. The longest of the surviving Maya codices, this manuscript includes texts and images painted by scribes conversant in Maya hieroglyphic writing, a written means of communication practiced by Maya elites from the second to the fifteenth centuries A.D. Some scholars have recently argued that the Madrid Codex originated in the Petén region of Guatemala and postdates European contact. The contributors to this volume challenge that view by demonstrating convincingly that it originated in northern Yucatán and was painted in the Pre-Columbian era. In addition, several contributors reveal provocative connections among the Madrid and Borgia group of codices from Central Mexico. Contributors include: Harvey M. Bricker, Victoria R. Bricker, John F. Chuchiak IV, Christine L. Hernández, Bryan R. Just, Merideth Paxton, and John Pohl. Additional support for this publication was generously provided by the Eugene M. Kayden Fund at the University of Colorado.
