    1. Title: The Judge who recited Psalm 27
      Author: Chaim Simons

      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" align="left"><span style="color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">In a certain shul in an Anglo-Saxon county there was an argument between the chazan and the gabbai as to what date one finishes saying &ldquo;L&rsquo;Dovid Hashem Ori&rdquo; (Psalm 27) and because of this the chazan was dismissed from his post. The chazan took the matter to <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>court and when the non-Jewish judge heard <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>that the dispute was about the recital of Psalm 27, the judge began to recite this Psalm by heart (in English) and commented that it is such a beautiful Psalm and thus it ought to be recited every day of the year!</span></span></span></p>
