O presente artigo discute o encontro do rabino Jacob Saphir (1822-1886), um famoso viajante judeu, com um honrado muçulmano. Durante o evento, os seguidores do homem santo não o tocam, mas sentem o perfume especial de suas roupas. O evento incomum ilustra o significado social do odor emitido pelo corpo ou pelas roupas de figuras distintas entre os muçulmanos. Também demonstra uma nova visão de Saphir sobre o significado dos odores corporais nas escrituras judaicas.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2019-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/2388710.17851/1982-3053.13.25.189-198Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG; v. 13 n. 25 (2019): Guerras e conflitos nos arquivos judaicos; 189-1981982-3053reponame:Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGenghttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/23887/19316Copyright (c) 2020 Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMGhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Shemesh, Abraham Ofir2021-03-04T12:30:34Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/23887Revistahttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/indexPUBhttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/oai||lyslei@ufmg.br1982-30531982-3053opendoar:2021-03-04T12:30:34Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
