The Children’s Torah Scroll

The Torah is the holiest and most precious gift that G-d gave to the Jewish people. For thousands of years, we have studied it and lived by its laws. The Torah that you see today is written in exactly the same way as Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses) originally wrote it down.

Every Sefer Torah (Torah scroll) has 304,805 letters, and it must be written on parchment with a quill and special ink by a pious scribe. It takes months to complete since each letter must be written perfectly. When the Torah scroll is finished, it is brought into the Ark in the synagogue, amidst singing and dancing. It is read publicly on special days, on Sabbaths and Jewish holidays.

Following the suggestion of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, special Torah scrolls are being written in the Old City of Jerusalem, exclusively for Jewish children – boys under the age of 13 and girls under the age of 12.

Over two million children have already bought their own letters in these Torah scrolls. You, too, can buy a letter in a Torah scroll and unite with Jewish children from all over the world. Buying your own letter will bring blessings for you and the entire Jewish people.

• Only boys under the age of 13 and girls under the age of 12 may buy a letter in the Children’s Sefer Torah.
• Letters may be bought for very young children, including newborn babies.
• Letters may be bought as a gift or on behalf of children who have not bought one themselves.
• Only one letter may be bought for each child.
