About his mother death Sara dather of Yona in 28 Iyar

12/19/2024 6:51 AM

A poetic epitaph paraphrasing Biblical Scripture to describe the deceased.
Since she fell our leader... (Book of Eichah-Lamentations 5:16)
The day she left to her world from ..our world?..? (Koheles- Ecclesiastes 12:5)
A God fearing woman and a woman of valor (Mishlei-Proberbs 31:10, 30)
Madame Sarah daughter of Reb the beginning letters of either the name Yona or maybe Yonoson
She left the land of the living and ascended to heaven
(Yecheskel 32)
on the 28th day of the Jewish Month of Iyar
in the year 56_ _
the last five letters are an acronym of a verse "May his soul be bound in the bundle of life,"
a direct quote from the Book of the Prophet Samuel / Shmuel A, 25: 29, that is traditionally engraved on Jewish tombstones.
A few thoughts
Reb is a respectful manner of referring to a man sort of like Mr. it does not mean Rabbi
The jewish year 5600 began in the Gregorian Calendar yea of 1839. The last two numerals are ripped so her year of passing is not discernible
