The Samaritans: A Biblical People by Moshe Alafi, A Film Screening
Monday, March 13 at 5:00 pm ET (in-person only)
Film screening in the Jewish Foundation of Cincinnati International Learning 
Center at the American Jewish Archives

On Mt. Gerizim, near Nablus, a community of 850 Samaritans and their 
3,500-year-old biblical tradition struggle to survive. Endangered by the modern 
life surrounding them and strict customs on marriage within their religion, 
they try to prevent extinction and preserve the community, the Torah, and their 
Holy Mountain.

A partnership of the Klau Library, American Jewish Archives, and Mayerson JCC, 
in association with the Yeshiva University Center for Israel Studies.

“Good Samaritans? Jewish-Samaritan Relations in the Roman World”
Monday, March 13 at 7:00 pm ET / 4:00 pm PT / 2:00 am Israel
Feld Lecture and Reception with Steven Fine, Ph.D., Churgin Professor of Jewish 
History, Yeshiva University

Jews and Samaritans, the two Israelite peoples, were at times in conflict and 
at times allies in the Roman world. Dr. Fine will explore this complex and 
fascinating relationship, focusing on literature and archaeological discoveries 
from this formative period.

A partnership of the Klau Library and Mayerson JCC, in association with the 
Yeshiva University Center for Israel Studies.

“‘He Showed Him the Likeness of the Tabernacle’: The Biblical Tabernacle in 
Samaritan Literature and Art”
Tuesday, March 14 at 12:00 pm ET / 9:00 am PT / 7:00 pm Israel
Feld lunch and learn with Steven Fine, Ph.D., Churgin Professor of Jewish 
History, Yeshiva University

Samaritans believe that Joshua constructed the biblical Tabernacle on Mt. 
Gerizim, and that it will be discovered buried there at the end of days. Dr. 
Fine will present little-known Samaritan literary and visual sources on the 
Tabernacle (including a drawing from the Klau Library collection). He will 
contrast these Samaritan sources with Jewish, Christian, and Muslim conceptions 
of this most important biblical icon.

A partnership of the Klau Library and Mayerson JCC, in association with the 
Yeshiva University Center for Israel Studies.

[ha-Safran] 1794 Copy of Josephus Donation

[Jacqueline Benefraim via Hasafran]

Shalom,

A local patron wishes to donate a 1794 copy of The genuine works of Josephus

to
a Jewish library (not a Judaica collection within a non-Jewish
institution). The only cost would be the shipping expense.

If you're interested in this English version, please reach out to Ely
emal...@sbcglobal.net

Kol tuv,

Jackie
