An exhibition on the works of Maimonides, the medieval Jewish philosopher-scientist, closed here last night after nearly 40,000 persons including many tourists, had visited it. During the same period, which marked the 750th anniversary of the death of the Jewish sage and religious codifier, several hundred lectures on the Rambam were delivered in schools, at learned societies and at public meetings.
