Scholar Club Exclusive - What Happened in Berlin? - Tackling the issue of the "inseparable prepositions"

In this Scholar Club Exclusive episode, Nehemia shares what happened in Berlin, where he and his team used X-ray fluorescence to test the ink of 14th-century Torah scrolls in a vault of the Berlin State Library. He shows how some scribes left blank spaces for the name Yehovah so a separate scribe could fill it in. He then explains why the inseparable prepositions attached to the name provide objective evidence that the scribes treated it differently from every other word.
