Chumash Ezras Hasofer is a particularly accurate chumash that was meticulously reviewed and proofread by the expert Rabbi Yehuda Pisa of Amsterdam. The purpose of this chumash was for use by sofrim who could refer to it to write accurate Sifrei Torah.
The end of each volume features the haftaros of every parshah and event. The haftarah for Tisha B’Av was printed with its Portuguese translation. Shiras Hayam in parshas Beshalach and Shiras Ha’azinu were printed with wide, folded margins.
The set concludes with a 112-year calendar with a special title page and calendar calculation chart. Every volume features two title pages—one illustrated and another title page for the haftarah section.
