In this episode of Hebrew Voices #156, Bibles Written by Medieval Jewish Kids, Nehemia talks with Dr. Estara Arrant about her research at Cambridge University into “informal Bibles” discovered in the Cairo Genizah. They discuss the insights that can be gained from these previously overlooked Hebrew fragments, the surprising degree of literacy among Jewish children in the Middle Ages, and how errors in personal Bibles prove that the text of the Hebrew Bible was fixed.
