At a moving ceremony at the headquarters of the IDF’s Military Rabbinate, in the presence of senior officers and the head of the editorial board of the Talmudic Encyclopedia, the first 3,000 copies of the new volume of the Talmudic Encyclopedia were presented. The entire volume is dedicated to topics related to “War in Light of Halacha,” hence the book’s title.
These volumes are currently being distributed within the IDF, and will be placed in all military synagogues and made available to all military rabbis on regular and reserve duty.
The free distribution of the volumes was made possible through the generous contribution of six Torah enthusiasts, each contributing funds for the purchase of 500 copies for distribution within the IDF. The donors are from Israel, as well as from New York, Los Angeles and Miami.
