In this section you will learn all about Jewish readings, such as Siddurim, Tefillin, a Mini Torah, a megillah, and a scroll from a mezuzah. As you may know these are religious readings that all our ancestors used. Some of our ancestors were very lucky to have these artifacts, because they prayed, learned, and studied with these artifacts. With these readings our ancestors followed the laws of Judaism. These artifacts definitely showed that the owners were observant Jews, and that they had a love for Hashem. The fact that our ancestors kept these artifacts with them throughout their entire lives shows that having a connection to Hashem was very important to them.
