Hebrew Voices #231 – The Lost Scroll of Moses (Shapira): Part 1

October 29, 2025

In this episode of Hebrew Voices #231 - The Lost Scroll of Moses (Shapira): Part 1, Nehemia brings on Biblical scholar Dr. Idan Dershowitz to discuss the lineage of the infamous Shapira manuscripts - were they real or forgeries - and how a well-known 19th century Jewish Christian scholar eventually reversed his belief in their authenticity.

I look forward to reading your comments!

I don’t agree with your guest. When Yehováh told Joshua “Do not let this book of the Torah depart out of your mouth” He was beyond a doubt referring to the Torah – the 5 books of Moses which was initially one book. Your guest thinks that the books of Moses were “evolving” over time, that people added to them. I don’t believe that’s true at all; especially since Deuteronomy commands not to add to or take away from the Torah and ‘keepers’ of the Torah – the Children of Israel – were meticulous in their care.

I feel sorry for him, honestly. He is truly intelligent but what good is head knowledge when the soul has lost it’s meaning.
