A WEEKEND OF TORAH
Ann Haber Stanton
April 27, 2010
If you were fortunate enough to spend all or part of the weekend of April 23 with Sofer Neil Yerman at the Synagogue of the Hills, you had an extraordinary experience, one you aren’t likely to ever forget.

When a Torah shows signs of deterioration, when its letters flake off, or its parchment has tears, or when some environmental stress such as humidity or dust causes blurring of the words, a synagogue must call for professional help to restore, or “kosher,” it. This vital task must be done with great skill and care, and can be a very expensive assignment. (please click here to access entire article)
