Nuestra Mesorá: uniendo la cadena de nuestra herencia

Are the words and letters of our Sefer Torah identical to those given by Moshe Rabbeinu? Our Mesorah: Linking the Chain of Our Heritage traces the transmission of the Torah across thousands of years, drawing exclusively from Torah sources to examine the challenges encountered along the way and their halachic repercussions. What became of the Sifrei Torah of Moshe Rabbeinu and Ezra Hasofer? Why did Chazal acknowledge uncertainties in the Torah’s text? Why do pesukim quoted in the Gemara sometimes differ from our Sefer Torah? And why did Rashi’s Sefer Torah contain an extra letter? Exploring periods of disruption, efforts to preserve and restore textual precision, and the halachic discussions that resulted, Our Mesorah offers a fascinating examination of the authenticity and transmission of the Torah―and of the generations who safeguarded it. Includes the bonus supplement, Matan Torah: A Timeless Timeline.
