Record group is comprised of the following collections, Adolf Deutsch Collection of Mazhorim; Weiss Family Prayer Books; The Babylonian Talmud in German; Books of Humash (Pentateuch or Torah); Jewish Holidays Prayer Books; Jewish Prayer Books, Siddurim; Jewish Educational Religious Literature; Jewish Religious Objects
This record group contains Jewish religious literature, spanning almost 200 years. One of the oldest artifacts in this record group is a prayer book, dating back to the end of the 18th century. Other interesting artifacts are the original Torah scroll inscribed in 1831 in the Czech town, Kostelec nad Orlice, which stands out for its history; and the Megillat Esther scroll created in circa 1786 in East-Central Europe. This record group is also comprised of Jewish prayer books; Talmudic literature writings on Jewish philosophy; Jewish sacramental objects, such as shields and crowns for Torah, menorahs, hannukiyahs, Sabbath candles, mezuzahs, and candelabras.
Some texts have been either partially or fully digitized.
