1866 LYCK PRINTING HEBREW G CONDITION, CLOTH COVERS First edition of the fascinating account of his travels in the lands of the east by R. Jacob Saphir This work is outstanding for its penetrating observations and lively and fluent style. It contains valuable information on the lives of the Jews and their customs during the 19th century in the Oriental countries, particularly in Yemen. Saphir was the first to discover Yemenite Jewry in its greatness. Saphir’s lifelike descriptions depict the innermost parts of the home, the village, the merchant on his business premises, the craftsman in his workshop, the elementary school teacher and his education, the synagogue and the hakham mori. He also notes important details on their customs at circumcisions and marriages, and the version of the prayers for weekdays and festivals. He was the first to publish various Yemenite poems, and his details on the Hebrew pronunciation and syntax employed by Yemenite Jews are also of importance. R. Jacob Saphir (1822–1885), writer and traveler; born in Oshmiany in the province of Vilna. Saphir’s father, who was the shohet of the townlet, belonged to the Perushim – the disciples of Elijah b. Solomon Zalman, the Gaon of Vilna. In 1832 his parents immigrated to Erez Israel, settling at first in Safed. A year after their arrival his father died, and when the year of mourning was just ending, he lost his mother, too. In 1836 he fled to Jerusalem with many members of the Perushim community because of the pogroms which the Jewish population of Safed suffered at the time. Saphir was educated under the system of the disciples of the Gaon of Vilna, which prevailed in Jerusalem at the beginning of the Ashkenazi settlement there. In addition to his religious knowledge and a rhetorical mastery of the Hebrew language, Saphir also acquired a fundamental knowledge of spoken and literary Arabic, read the Koran, and was familiar with Latin script. He became a teacher at the Jerusalem talmud torah Ez Hayyim. He later became the scribe of the hevra kaddisha of the Ashkenazim and of the Perushim community. As scribe of the community, it was his task to write poems in honor of important visitors, such as Moses Montefiore when he visited Jerusalem in 1839. In 1857 he traveled to the Oriental countries as the emissary of the Perushim community, to raise funds for the construction of the great synagogue in the courtyard of the Hurvah of R. Judah Hasid and for the talmud torah. He at first intended to go to Egypt and Aden, and from there by sea to India, and was among the first to see the treasures of the Fostat Genizah, an account of which is found in his works. In Egypt he was defrauded of most of the money which was intended for his journey to India, and his financial plight brought him to Yemen. Endangering his life, he embarked on a small sailing craft for Jedda, the port of Mecca, and from there continued to Hodeyda, the port of San‘a, the capital of Yemen (beginning of 1858). He first thought of proceeding to Aden in order to enter the interior of Yemen by the Tariq al-Yaman (“Road of the South”), but lacking transport, he entered the interior by the road known as Tariq al-Sham (“Road of the North”). After walking for three days along the desolate coastal plain (Tihama) to the Haraz mountains, Saphir met the first Yemenite Jews, and when he reached the nearby town of Jirwah, he was deeply impressed by them and their way of life, which he mentioned in a letter to Jerusalem. From there he went on to Hajara, Mudmar, Manakha, and Yafid in the Hayma mountains. Near Yafid all his possessions, including his credentials as an emissary, were stolen from him. From Yafid he went to Qaryat al-Qabil in the vicinity of San‘a, where the Jews advised him not to visit San‘a because of the severe living conditions for the Jews which prevailed there during that period. In the meantime Saphir visited Shibam, where he celebrated Purim, and from there, by way of Kawkaban, he reached San‘a, staying there during the whole of Passover. With San‘a as his base, he visited ‘Amran – spending Shavuot there – Hajjah, and Kuhlan, which was the northernmost place that he reached. To the east of San‘a, he visited Sa‘wan and Tan‘im. He stayed in Aden for more than a month and celebrated the Day of Atonement and Sukkot, sailing from there to India on Nov. 5, 1859. After traveling to India, Java, Australia, New Zealand, and Ceylon, Saphir once more returned to Aden, three years and four months later. On this occasion Saphir again thought of visiting the interior of Yemen, having become deeply attached to its Jews since his first visit; nonetheless, he refrained from doing this after hearing of the persecution of the Jews by the imam al-Mutawakkil. Saphir returned from Aden to Jerusalem by way of Jedda and Egypt (May 1863), after an absence of four years and ten months. Upon his return to Jerusalem he recorded his travels in Even Sappir. In 1869 Saphir was again sent to Egypt and the European countries, as emissary of the Bikkur Holim hospital of Jerusalem, and he was once more the emissary of the above institution in 1873 when he went to Russia. Upon his return to Jerusalem he continued to take an interest in Yemenite Jewry, and when he learned of the impostor who appeared as the pseudomessiah Shukr Kuhayl, he wrote an Iggeret Teiman ha-Shenit (“Second Epistle to Yemen”) in which he warned the Jews of Yemen to beware of him (published Vilna 1873).
