Megillat Esther 11 Rows
Megillat Esther written on parchment, 11 rows, ktav Beit Yoseph. [Beginning of 20th century]. On outside of parchment, stamp of earlier owner [died Elul 1935].
According to the opinion of the Vilna Gaon and the Chatam Sofer, the letters of the amud of the ten sons of Haman should be the same size as the rest of the megilla. According to other opinions, the ten sons of Haman should be written on one whole amud and in large letters. In our generation, meticulously observant people have begun to write all the megilla in 11 rows, to satisfy all opinions. These megillot are more expensive since they have more amudim that regular megillot. It is rare to find a megilla with 11 rows from such an early period of time, [most of the poskim who discuss this disagreement, do not bring this solution of writing 11 rows, see Mishna B'rura Siman 691, Sha'ar Tzion, 16. It is well known that the Chazon Ish owned such a megilla].
17 cm. Good-fair condition, faded ink in many letters. Stains. Ancient worn leather case.
