Chanoch walked with God

Just fixed a section of torah that twice talks about Chanoch walking with God. Doesn't say why though and what walking with God actually entails. Rashi says 'he was a righteous man, but he could easily be swayed to return to do evil. Therefore, the Holy One, blessed be He, hastened and took him away and caused him to die before his time.'

Fonts

Every month since I bought Bembo ascenderfonts.com send me a selection of fonts that I drool over & stroke but don't buy cos I'm a good boy.

Finished Amud 9 of Megillat Hashoah


Good progress today - 21 lines done. Only 4 amudim to go and the work is complete.

Another 9 lines of the Megillat Hashoah


Just wrote nine lines of the Megillat Hashoah including the difficult element of Hashem being silent - symbolised in part by the small ayin and dalet in the Shema - countering the normal large one in Torah, Tefillin and Mezuzah. http://www.sofer.co.uk/html/diary_22.html for more details or buy the book http://www.sofer.co.uk/html/diary_22.html

Off to write some more now...

Wow...

didn't realise just how tough it was going to be to sell books. After a little spate some weeks ago virtually no action. Been trying to promote on-line but very very few avenues. Kulmus Publishing is a bit niche I understand but didn't realise how niche. Hmm. Need a bit of a rethinkk here.
