A book can tell you much more than what is written on its pages.
This historic piece brings together Hebrew and old Portuguese, reflecting the Sephardic world it came from. It was created for mohelim, the men who perform the Jewish ritual of brit milah, and includes prayers, blessings, and guidance connected to the ceremony.
More than a religious book, it is a small window into a community where faith, language, and tradition lived side by side.

Language carries history.

Yom Kippur is a day of reflection, prayer, and renewal.
As this sacred day draws to a close, the shofar sounds one final, powerful note, marking the end of the fast and the hope of beginning again.
Listen closely to the sound of this centuries-old Jewish tradition.

In observance of Yom Kippur, the Jewish Cultural Historical Museum will be closed on Monday, September 21st.
