Nevi'im, Yechezkel. Codex on Parchment. 13th Century

"Codex" [מִצְחָף] is the designation for ancient books written not in a scroll format, but in a page-by-page format, similar to the books in use today.

Latin origin of the name: Caudex - book or anthology. The original meaning of the Latin term is "tree trunk" due to the wooden boards used for writing.

The origin of mitzchaf is Arabic, and it already appears in books by the geonim. This term refers to handwritten works that have been bound and are read in a book format: page after page. The text appears on both sides of each page, as in today's printed books.


Large manuscript, arranged in two columns, [19] lines per column. Yemenite script with Tiberian vowelization, c. 13th century. Ink on parchment.


The manuscript bears a passage from Sefer Yechezkel:
Page 1 - 9:3 "The Glory of the G-d of Israel ascended" to 10:1 "I saw and behold towards..."
Page 2 - "... of the heavens that were above the heads of the keruvim..." to verse 11: "whichever place the head faced"
