FINDING FRESHLY WRITTEN SEFER SCROLLS POST COVID WAS A BIT LIKE BUYING A NEW CAR

Adin Steinsaltz at the Kesher Israel synagogue in Georgetown. He made such a strong impression I determined I would buy his multivolume Talmud. They sit on the shelf above the desk on which I am writing, mostly unopened!

Initially we will acquire a small number of Steinsaltz ‘Humush’ (their spelling) in Daniel’s memory. The new books will provide a neat transition until the Koren-Sachs Chumash currently being worked on is ready.

Hopefully my late father Michael (z’’l) who used the same mid-European Machzor for six decades along with his dog-eared Singers’ will understand, as he looks down from the heavens.
