One day this spring, on the condition that I not reveal any details of
its location nor the stringent security measures in place to protect its
contents, I entered a hidden vault at the Israel Museum and gazed upon
the Aleppo Codex — the oldest, most complete, most accurate text of the
Hebrew Bible. The story of how it arrived here, in Jerusalem, is a tale
of ancient fears and modern prejudices, one that touches on one of the
rawest nerves in Israeli society: the clash of cultures between Jews
from Arab countries and the European Jews, or Ashkenazim, who controlled
the country during its formative years
