Hebrew Abbreviations

This new publication on Hebrew abbreviations in Jewish dedicatory inscriptions is the result of long-term epigraphic research into the Jewish Museum’s textile collections which was begun in 2000 by the authors Iveta Cermanová and Michaela Scheibová. This work deals with the important subject of Jewish literature and epigraphy, which has not previously been researched in the above context, and provides a range of valuable information on Hebrew inscriptions. The introduction comprises a paper on Hebrew abbreviations in dedicatory inscriptions on synagogue textiles. This is followed by an extensive lexicon of abbreviations encountered by the authors in their research into the Jewish Museum’s textiles. The abbreviations are provided with their Hebrew spelled-out forms, as well as translations into Czech and English. There is also an overview of the Jewish calendar and a select bibliography.
