Collection of Early Manuscript Fragments, Removed from the "Binding Geniza" - Mishne Torah L'HaRambam - Yemen, 1343
Collection of early manuscript fragments, removed from the "Binding Geniza" - Mishne Torah L'HaRambam. [Yemen, 1343].
Ancient Yemenite script, semi-square, with enlarged titles, some written in colored ink and some with hollow letters filled with gold and red ink.
According to the opinion of Shlomo Zucker, an expert on Hebrew manuscripts, the handwriting in this manuscript is identical to the handwriting in a manuscript of Mishne Torah, Sefer Hafla'ah, Hilchot Shevuot (Chapter 2, Halacha 2, until the end of Hilchot Shevuot), dated 1343 and held in the San Francisco Sutro Library (WPA 111). This manuscript is another part of the manuscript in the Sutro Library (see a photocopy of the manuscript: M. Beit-Arié, Engel and Yardeni, the Hebrew Palaeography Project - Asufot Ketavim Ivri'im Mimei HaBenayim [Collection of Medieval Hebrew Manuscripts], Vol 2, Jerusalem 1988, no. 122).
Content of these leaves: Hilchot Kiddush HaChodesh, sections from Chapters 5-8, 11-19; Hilchot Ta'anit, section from Chapters 1-4.
These leaves contain minor textual variations, see enclosed report.
Enclosed are two manuscript fragments on vellum removed from the "Binding Geniza", one is from another manuscript of the Mishne Torah L'HaRambam (Yemen), and the other has illegible inscriptions.
Approximately 40 fragments. Size and condition vary, due to the binding process.
Enclosed is a report by Shlomo Zucker, expert on Hebrew manuscripts.
