In this episode of Hebrew Voices #246 - Secrets from the Great Silent Period: Part 1, Dr. Nehemia Gordon sits down with manuscript expert Mordechai Weintraub to uncover the secrets of the Ashkar-Gilson Scroll, a 1,300-year-old Torah from ancient Babylonia. Examined under infrared light at Cambridge, Mordechai's discovery of 13 hidden fragments is rewriting what we know about the Bible's transmission. Does the Torah we read today match what Jews read 1,300 years ago?
I look forward to reading your comments!
