Summary edit

Description
English: Haftara scroll from Poland. The holes in the scroll are believed to be the result of a Nazi bayonet.
  • The haftara (haftorah. haftarah, haphtara, הפטרה) is a series of selections from the books of Nevi'im ("Prophets") of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) that is publicly read in synagogue as part of Jewish religious practice.
Ancient Hebrew Scrolls displayed at NAS JRB Fort Worth Chapel: (...) One of the scrolls came from a school in Poland (German-occupied Poland in World War II). Nazi soldiers tried to destroy it which is why there are rips and tears in it. The school teacher risked her life while saving them and hid them for many years. It stayed in her family for a generation and then was obtained by the CHF. (...)
