Snippet:
From a World War II soldier’s mahzor (prayer book), to manuscripts from the Cairo Genizah, to a recently reunited prayer book from Portugal, the National Library of Israel’s impressive collection of prayer books and other holiday-related items immeasurably enhances our appreciation of the High Holy Days.
