| Title | A Song of praise to Moses Montefiore |
| Date | ca. 1863-1885 |
| Author | Goldstein, Isaac (fl. 1863) |
| Document Type | Miscellany |
| Content Description | In English and Hebrew. A song praising Montefiore for his work for the Jewish people. Also includes a quote from Proverbs. The song mentions Montefiore's travels to Morocco, which occurred in 1863, so the document could have been written any time between then and his death in 1885. However, the song does not mention a similar important journey to Romania in 1867, so it is possible that it was written between 1863 and 1867. |
