The fourth start for mitzvah-mobiles
Read on the website Vestnik KavkazaOn July 27th mitzvah-mobiles started their fourth journey all over Russia. Mobile synagogues will visit more than 70 cities of the country to present traditions of Judaism to everybody who is interested. There are scrolls of the Torah in each car. Each of the scrolls is handwritten. The process of writing takes about 6-12 months. The text shouldn’t contain any mistake; otherwise it wouldn’t be kosher, i.e. permitted for divine service. Young rabbis will read them for guests of mobile synagogues in every town or city. The event is organized by the Federation of Jewish Communities of Russia.
