Were These Historic Booklets Saved from the Flames?
Guest: Rabbi Berel Levine
Episode description
When cataloging the historic volumes of Talmud in the Central Chabad library, the librarians discovered something strange. For some reason, there were a number of booklets of the Rosh, which had been printed at the end of volumes of the Talmud, had been separated and bound together. Chief Librarian Rabbi Berel Levine suggests an explanation, one that delves into the history of the burning of the Talmud in Italy in 5314.
