ChaBaD Jewish Calendar Thursday, 19 Sivan, 5783 June 8, 2023 Torah Reading Shlach: Numbers 13:1-20 Jewish History Passing of R. Yehuda ibn Attar (1733) R. Yehuda ibn Attar (1655–1733), who served as rabbi in Fez, is regarded as one of the greatest leaders among Moroccan Jewry. A saintly and pious man, he was known as a miracle worker and was revered by the local Jews and Muslims alike. He refused to accept a salary from the community, working as a goldsmith instead. It is related that he was once thrown into a lion’s den and miraculously survived unharmed ( Shem Hagedolim ). This protagonist of this story is often said to be—apparently in error—R. Yehuda’s kinsman, R. Chaim ibn Attar (see link below).
