Item description from seller

n.p.n.d. ca 18th Century]. Two Sefer Torah parchment manuscript fragments taken from Exodus. Each with three columns of Hebrew manuscript. The two leaves sewn together with thin cords and the whole piece is rolled up as a scroll. The verso is reinforced with tabs along edges and seam. The two fragments measure 22 3/4 x 23 3/4 inches, and 22 3/4 x 21 3/4 inches. Some minor creasing and soiling along edges and margins. A few light stains. Still overall a very good example. "Exodus ("Shemot") is the second book of the Torah, Judaism's foundational text. It describes the Israelites' enslavement in Egypt, their miraculous redemption through ten plagues, and the splitting of the Red Sea. Under Moses' leadership, they begin their travels in the desert, where they experience God's revelation, receive the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai, and build the mishkan (tabernacle). Interspersed throughout the book are more than one hundred mitzvot (commandments)." (Sefaria dot org). HBS 69267. $1,250.
