Overnight music video

Here's a song that's got contemporary implications. It's Yaakov Shwekey's Rabbi Nehorai, and the text is from the last Mishna in Tractate Kiddushin. It says "Rabbi Nehorai said, I am leaving over every other occupation in the world and only teaching my son Torah."

Let's go to the videotape.

Overnight music video

Here's Yaakov Shwekey with Rabbi Nehorai.

Let's go to the videotape.

For those wondering, the Brith was postponed at the last minute (late Friday night). These things do happen.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
