Targum Onkelos - the translation of the Chumash into Aramaic by Onkelos - is so important that the Sages included it in the obligation to read the weekly Chumash portion "shnayim mikra v'echad Targum” the Torah text twice andTargum Onkelos once. Now you will be able to gain a better understanding of the interpretation of Onkelos and enhance your understanding of Chumash.

As a child his hobby was to poke around in genizas, or dusty repositories of old, discarded books. As amazing as this seems to us (or to me), in the 1810s in Italy, people would still have 500 year old books and manuscripts, not know or care what they were, and basically throw them out (respectfully, of course, but its all the same).

    In the course of his excursions he found some real gems, a manus
