A special Sefer Torah to be dedicated to the Israel Defense Forces. This Sefer Torah is commissioned specifically for the IDF and made in a specific size and weight to enable the soldiers to use it in the field during operational combat.
The last of the 613 Mitzvot (commandments) is the obligation for every man to write a Sefer Torah. Writing or fixing just one letter in a Sefer Torah is a fulfillment of this Mitzvah [Rambam (Sefer Torah 7:1)]. Nowadays, it’s very common for people to sponsor sections when writing a Torah scroll is commissioned. In this way, people can participate in the performance of this Mitzvah.
