This gave me a "Safrut smile"... OK, I realise that this is not Ktav STaM, however it is interesting what happens when graphic/font Hebrew becomes too stylised. Case-in-point, a colleague and I were visiting the mayor's office in the Gaza Belt region of Shaar HaNegev (adjoining Sderot). He is new to reading Hebrew and pronounced the welcome sign as " brooning " or " broobing " (instead of the intended " brookhim ". I replied that he was more correct than the graphic designer, as the letter meant to be a " khaf " was closer to a halakhic "Nun" or "Bet", and had this been Ktav STaM, the letter would likely be considered pasul as a "Khaf".
I've been looking for years - never successful.
ReplyDeleteIf you find it anywhere please let me know! I'll do the same...
I got my copy via virtualgeula.com, which hunted it down for me. Cost around $100 US, I think.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I want a copy of zichron eliyahu. I found the 2 volume version of תפלה למשה also very good.
ReplyDeleteWhile Tefillah Lemoshe (just one of his works on tefillin) is very detailed and broad, it's not intended as halachah lemaaseh while Zichron Eliyahu is, at least according to Rav Elyashiv (unless stated otherwise).
ReplyDeleteI've heard that they're working on a Zichron Eliyahu 2.0.
ReplyDeleteA few ZE kuntresim were put out - one specifically on Shins and R' Gitman's son put out another one, which I haven't seen.
