Large Chassidic Esther Scroll - Enlarged Holy Names - Poland
Parchment Esther scroll, large format. [Poland, 19th/20th century].
Ink on parchment. Neat scribal writing, HaAri Ashkenazi-Chassidic. 42 lines per column.
In seven places in the scroll, letters alluding to Holy Names at the beginning and end of words are enlarged [The Name of G-d is not mentioned throughout the Esther scroll, but allusions can be found to His Names. A common Chassidic-Kabbalistic practice is to stress the Names in the scroll, however, according to the opinion of the Vilna Gaon, only letters enlarged by the Mesorah (tradition) are permitted to be enlarged].
Height of parchment: 54 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains and dark discoloration. Few holes and tears to parchment. Creases. Blurred and faded letters in some places.
