<p>This piyyut by Rabbi Shlomoh ben Eliyahu Sharvit haZahav was transcribed by Rabbi Jonah Rank based on the text as appearing in Leon J. Weinberger, <em>Rabbanite and Karaite Liturgical Poetry in South-Eastern Europe: Critical Edition with Introduction and Commentary</em> (Tuscaloosa, Alabama: Hebrew Union College Press and University of Alabama Press, 1991), pp. 238-240; find the former for extended commentary.</p>
<p>Weinberg found this text in the printed Maḥzor Romanyah (Constantinople 1574); the manuscript Maḥzor Korfu (“Corfu”) (Oxford 1082); manuscript Maḥzor Korfu (London, JTS, Montefiore, 196/195). Note that in both Corfu manscripts the piyyut ends with “<span class="hebrew" lang="heb-Hebr">לְמוֹעֲדָהּ מִיָּמִים יְמִֽימָה</span>” (“On some occasion between days-upon-days”).</p>

					<description><![CDATA[This is a Mi Khamokha piyyut by Yisrael Najara for Shabbat Ḥanukkah retelling Megilat Antiokhos in a lengthy fourfold acrostic with each stanza ending in <span class="hebrew">בוֹ</span>.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="english" lang="eng-Latn" style="font-size: 1.2em;">
This is the epic Mi Khamokha piyyut by Yisrael Najara for Shabbat Ḥanukkah. In a similar way to Yehuda haLevi&#8217;s famous Mi Khamokha piyyut for Shabbat Zakhor which retells Megilat Esther in a lengthy fourfold acrostic with each stanza ending in <span class="hebrew">לוֹ</span> (lo), Najara&#8217;s piyyut here retells Megilat Antiokhos in a lengthy fourfold acrostic with each stanza ending in <span class="hebrew">בוֹ</span> (bo).</p>
<p>There are different customs for where a Mi Khamokha piyyut is introduced. Originally serving as an introduction to the verse Mi Khamokha in the Shema&#8217;, such a placement grew unpopular in Sephardic circles as the practice not to &#8220;interrupt&#8221; the Shema&#8217; blessings grew more prominent. In Western Sephardic practice, this piyyut was inserted into Nishmat, in the middle of Psalm 35:10. In Eastern Sephardic practice, it is recited after Shaḥarit as a prelude to the Torah service.</p>
<p>Note: “<span class="divine-referent">The CAUSE</span>” is used to translate the Divine Name <span class="divine-referent">YHVH</span>, based on the philosophical idea of <span class="divine-referent">God</span> as the <span class="divine-referent">Prime Mover</span> and on the interpretation of <span class="divine-referent">the Name</span> as a causative form of the copula – “causes to be.”  This translation also uses the plural pronouns <span class="divine-referent">They</span>/<span class="divine-referent">Their</span>/<span class="divine-referent">Them</span> to refer to <span class="divine-referent">God</span> as a <em>pluralis majestatis</em>, and to avoid the implications of <span class="divine-referent">God</span> being assigned a gender. (Find Ibn Ezra’s commentary on Genesis 1:1 for a discussion of the <em>pluralis majestatis</em> when referring to <span class="divine-referent">God</span>.) All divine referents (pronouns, epithets, names) are rendered in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicase">unicase</a>.
