Rabbi Moshe Cordovero (Ramak). In the following year, however, his life
took a completely different direction.

in Fifteen Languages"

the young boys singing a song they had learned at camp, and he made it
known that he wanted them to sing it at the farbrengen that evening.
Why This Week? On

and Miriam, sang "The Song By The Sea."
