From 1988 to 2007, Oz Vehadar worked on publishing a new edition of the Babylonian Talmud with corrections of previous texts and a retypesetting of the commentaries. The cost of the project was over $20 million.{{cite web |title=עשרים שנות יצירה |url=http://www.oz-vehadar.com/he/%D7%90%D7%A8%D7%9B%D7%99%D7%95%D7%9F-%D7%9B%D7%AA%D7%91%D7%95%D7%AA/27 |accessdate=11 July 2019 |language=he |website=Oz Vehadar}} The project was supported by Jewish businessman and philanthropist Hershey Friedman and thus named "Mahaduras Friedman" after him.{{cite web |title=Oz Vehadar Expands |url=http://www.5tjt.com/oz-vehadar-expands/ |website=The 5 Towns Jewish Times |accessdate=10 July 2019 |date=5 April 2013}}
