The first of five books of Moses with Ashkenazi translation, published in 1852, in London, England, by Johanan Christian Reichardt, a Christian missionary who worked to convert Jews to Christianity. It was signed by Hermann Rosenwald in 1863, and has two pages inscribed with Hebrew text and Yiddish annotations. The inscriptions are a list of each parsha, Bible section, read on the major and minor holidays, as well as fast days. It begins with Rosh Hashanah and ends with the instruction that on all holidays, except the High Holidays, the maftir, the last person called to read from the Torah, must read Parashat Pinchas, Numbers 25:10-30:1. Also included is the name Yitzhak son of Baruch. Hermann’s Hebrew name was likely Yitzchak, and his father Benedix’s (1800-1840) Baruch.
Gebete am Neuen Jahr mit Deutscher Uebersekung. Geordent und uberfekt von W. Heidenheim
Object
Machzor, a Jewish High Holiday prayer book, for the New Year saved by the Rosenwald family who fled Nazi Germany for the United States. It was signed by Jeanette David Rosenwald (1836 – 1902) in 1861, the same year she married Hermann Rosenwald (1832-1899) in Bunde, Germany. On the front and back flyleaves, is a handwritten list of Hermann and Jeanette’s 12 children, their Hebrew birthdates, Hebrew names, and death dates for those that did not live to adulthood. Also included are the English calendar dates where they differ from the Hebrew date because the child was born after sunset. Seven children survived childhood and had families of their own: Bendix, Thekla, Ida, Laura, Sophie, Gustav, and Paul. Bendix and Laura died before the Holocaust, but members of their families and those of their 5 living siblings immigrated to the United States as part of the rescue effort of their American Rosenwald relatives. A letter on blue paper, "für Jeanette Rosenwald, 13 Oktober 1872, HR" was found in the book.
