| Oct 31, 2019 at 19:22 | comment | added | Kazi bácsi | I didn't know all the spelling differences in Sifrei Torah, but it seems to me that 99% percent is about whether using the short or the long form, so the actual pronunciation doesn't change (or ה-א). If I understand it correctly, the only pronunciation altering difference is in Noach. Should there be more such, it would be problematic to mix them, otherwise why would it be relevant? | |

| Oct 31, 2019 at 14:04 | comment | added | Double AA♦ | @Kazi it doesn't matter if the spelling change is in that reading or not. The problem is the Torah is "pasul" | |
| Oct 31, 2019 at 14:01 | comment | added | Kazi bácsi | I've never ever heard of changing a Torah during the reading (except for a discovered error). For the second question it would be good to know where are these very few differences (I remember one ה-א pair), because your example may not be relevant. | |
| Oct 31, 2019 at 14:00 | comment | added | Double AA♦ | A couple hundred years ago before communities settled on these three versions, this would happen essentially every holiday, since different spellings were more common even in the same shul, depending what book a given scribe copied from | |
