Minhagim for Sephardic Synagogues: Afternoon and Evening PrayersMinhagim for Sephardic Synagogues: Afternoon and Evening Prayers

This manuscript, written in Dutch and Hebrew, contains the prayer book for Sephardic afternoon and evening services. Created between 1864 and 1869 in Suriname, it was likely used by a cantor (Chazan) in a local synagogue. The manuscript includes liturgical instructions and is a valuable resource for understanding the religious practices of Sephardic Jews in Suriname during the 19th century.
