Israel - 2 Shekels 1981 - Israel's 33rd Anniversary of Independence Coin, "The People of the Book"
The "Book of Books" was given to the Jewish people who are therefore called, "The People of the Book".
The Bible was written in Hebrew and over the generations scribes and scholars copied letters, sentences and passages, thus preventing the spiritual independence and culture of the nation, even during the long period that it was dispersed among other nations.
The 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet formed the basis of two Jewish languages spoken in the Diaspora – Yiddish and Ladino.
The vitality of printing and the Hebrew book exhibits in Israel is proven by the number of books published in the country. The year 1980 alone saw the publications of 4,381 books, 15 million copies printed by 123 publishers.
