Costco to Sell Illustrated Torahs
Just in time for Hanukkah, or Christmas
Hey, you know what you shouldn’t be paying retail for this holiday season? Torahs. According to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, discount giant Costco is going to start selling a special edition at select stores later this month. The distributor told the news service that The Illustrated Torah, published by Gefen Publishing House of Jerusalem in conjunction with The Studio in Old Jaffa and the Jewish Publication Society of New York, is supposed to appeal to both Jewish and Christian consumers who don’t have access to a local Jewish bookstore or Judaica shop. Or, you know, to the Internet.
