I didn't get much reactions on the idea of organizing a weekly lecture at Midrash Sepharadi.The idea is to split the evening in two parts, the first part will be a shi`ur on Rmbam with Rabbi Kassin, the second part will be on the Western Sephardic tradition. I would like to hear ideas on how we can fill in the second part.Catriel Ceballos Jonathan Cohen Ashley Perry Uriel Milo Abshalom Saša René H...

David Ramirez, did you mean this article? I just would like to see the evidence -of considering black converts non-Jews- in Morteira's writings.Black Jews *were* buried at the Beth Hayyim cemetery.

Tephila shel yad - I've seen three different images of how the tephila shel yad is worn: one similar to the Temanim (shown by Haham Luciano HaLewi de Lopes), one on the Hazzanut-Esnoga page, and one according to the minhag of Firenze. Are there any sources about any of these or the images one sees in paintings and drawings from Amsterdam?

Anyone know the shipping costs from the US to the UK? I'd like to get the siddurim from the S&P congregations in the UK, but I've had a hard time reaching someone to get shipping charges.

Sorry for not having been around to moderate, I have been disconnected from the internet for a while.

Small question: in the Western Sephardi synagogues I've been to, unmarried men called up for aliyot are generally called "h'bahor," (young man) while married men are called "h'givir" (man). I don't think I've ever seen that distinction made in other Sephardi synagogues, or in Ashkenazi communities. It's always intrigued me. Does anyone know the origin of the custom?

Hello, I wanted to ask a question as I'm researching for my University dissertation which will be assessing the current situation of the Sephardim and including all related to the term Sephardic so I was wondering if this group would be willing to help me get better informed. What are the main differences between different subgroups within Sephardic practice of Judaism? and how they differ to othe...

I was going to respond to so much here displayed separately, but I rather do it in one shot.-- Although I think the issues of minghag and the Iberian anussím are important, and very part of our tradition, I think the Intellectual aspect has been falling by the wayside. Let's pay more attention to that, please.-- It is all to sad, to say the least, about some opinions being reflected about the mode...

Does someone have (facsimile is fine) a sample of Sabato Morais’ handwriting? I need it to determine if some of the music manuscripts in the Mikveh Israel archive are in his hand.
