Hava Nagilah by Moshe Nathanson, One of the greatest Jewish Cliché ever. Yes, it is HAVA
NIGALA. But what exactly it is? Regardless religiousness or no, Hava Nagila has become
a Jewish anthem. All began with a 12 years old boy, born in Jerusalem, son of a Rabbi
Nahum composed the lyric as a homework assignment his name was Moshe Nathanson (1899-1981).
HAVA NAGILA was inspired based on the psalm 118, verse 24 “zeh hayom asah Ashen nagila
ve nishmecha bo” (translation from Hebrew to English: “this is the day the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.”). Watch the Video and appreciate it.
