File:Jewish Manuscripts and Ceremonial Objects – exhibition (26464514942).jpg

This unique exhibition presents the ties of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel (Eretz Ysrael), to the cradle of Hebrew language, script and Jewish literature. Although throughout the ages, Jewish people had often been forced into exile or diaspora, language remained the single common tie connecting Jews across the world. During the medieval and modern history of Jewry, there had been different language versions used by the various Jewish communities. However, Hebrew script, let it come from any period of history, has been legible for the man of the modern age since the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered. All of the displayed objects depict Hebrew letters and captions, they are related to religious customs and were used in homes or in synagogues as ceremonial objects.
