Stories Behind the Seforim

Behind every beautifully presented volume there is a story. Some manuscripts reached Machon Yerushalayim from private attics, basements, or estate sales; others survived fires and upheavals by open hashgachah pratis before being entrusted to the Machon. One remarkable example is the Shaarei Torah manuscript, whose first siman was miraculously recovered at the last moment from a forgotten envelope in a Judaica collection just before the sefer went to print. 

On a recent trip to Cambridge University Library to examine original manuscripts of the Geonim and the Rambam as part of the Teshuvos HaGeonim project, one of the members of the team of editors described the experience as “holding history in our hands.” These encounters with the past fuel the Machon’s sense of mission: to rescue, restore, and present classic as well as rare Torah texts so that they can be studied and treasured in every beis medrash, classroom, and home.

For five decades, Machon Yerushalayim has transformed Torah learning worldwide.
