Kurzcharakterisierung: | Kurzcharakterisierung Yosef (Juspa), Schammes („Synagogendiener“) von Worms (1604-1678), hielt den Alltag, die Riten und Gebräuche der jüdischen Gemeinde von Worms, einer der ältesten und wichtigsten in ganz Europa, fest.
Dieses Autograf von Yosef enthält Kommentare zum Gebetbuch, zur Birkat Hamason („Tischgebet“), zur Haggada und zur Pirqe Avot („Sprüche der Väter“) und zusätzliche Anmerkungen zu Gebetsriten und autobiographische Notizen. Die Anmerkungen zu den Minhagim („Gebräuchen“) wurden im gedruckten Wormser Minhagbuch übernommen, aber grosse Teile dieser Handschrift bleiben unediert und dienen deshalb als eine wichtige Quelle für die religiöse Geschichte eines der wichtigsten jüdischen Zentren Europas.
Die Handschrift gehörte unter anderem Rabbi Michael Scheyer und später zur Privatbibliothek von Salman Schocken in Jerusalem. |

One of the oldest and most important Jewish communities in Europe was in Worms. It was the site of the rabbinic and scholarly activities of many great Jewish leaders, first and foremost among them Rashi. The scholarship and ancient traditions characteristic of the Jewish community in Worms are reflected in the minhagim (customs) that Juspa, the author of this volume, and others recorded and preserved. These customs reflect Jewish life in the synagogue and the home throughout the entire year. In minute detail and with close attention to all manifestations of religious behavior, both public and private, the ways of everyday life are revealed in Juspa’s works.
Juspa was born in Fulda in 1604 and died in Worms in 1678. He was a student of Elijah Loanz, the Ba’al Shem of Worms (cat. no. 27). As shammes, Juspa served the Worms community in many capacities, including those of scribe, notary, trustee, mohel, and cantor. He was a talented writer and compiler; he paid special attention to the music of the synagogue and also composed poems. Juspa’s works are a mine of information on the Jewry of Worms and beyond. He wrote the Wormser Minhagbuch and Ma’aseh Nissim, in which he retold stories of Worms Jewry as recounted by the elders of the community. In addition he authored Sefer Likkutei Yosef, displayed here.
Previously in the Schocken Library in Jerusalem, this autograph manuscript contains later ownership entries, including testimony that the manuscript served as a pledge that was redeemed in 1782 by Rabbi Michael Scheyer. The original text includes commentaries on the prayer book, the Grace after Meals, the Passover Haggadah, and the Sayings of the Fathers, interspersed with records of prayer-related customs and autobiographical remarks. The comments on minhagim were incorporated into the printed edition of the Wormser Minhagbuch, but the bulk of the manuscript remains unpublished. This carefully written codex therefore serves as a primary source for the religious history of one of the most significant Jewish communities in Europe.
