Re: [Cz-L] An infamous Czernowitzer

Yesterday was History Day on the Ephes,
 All question answered but one,
 Bruce wants to know what Rachmanut means.
   Rachmanut , Rachamim means Mercy.
   At every jewish funeral the summing up prayer
   sung by the cantor is :
       El male rachamim - God full of Mercy.
    And the congregation stands , except the few who make
    for the cars, and listens with the eyes up and their mind
    on the jam at the tunnel.
      This is Rachmanut.
