Title
MS 1033, Genesis 36:28 to 40:23
Description
MS 1033 was removed from a larger Torah Scroll. It consists of four columns of text taken from Genesis 36:28 to 40:23 covering the dreams of Joseph, the story of Judah & Tamar and the sale of Joseph.
The scroll is written on a double ruled Klaf Mashuach. The parchment is ointed on both front and back. The parchment remains in good condition, while the ink has already grayed. The fragment comes from the same scroll as MS 1034.
This scroll is scribed in a classic Western Sephardic hand typical of the Spanish exiles that immigrated to Holland. The scroll is written in a 57 line per column format. Typical of this writ are the short top letter PEHs with extended noses, the use of the CHET of Rashi, flat based SHINs with an angled middle tooth, NUN SOFITS with their descendants emerging from the right side of the head, etc.
