[HANASHIR:4869] Re: hatikvah

[Rabbi Richard Schachet <lvrabbi...>]

Hatikva was first written as a poem in 1878 and published in 1886.  The author 
was Naphtali Herz-- Samuel Cohen set it to music.
Somewhere along the way, Dr. Nurit Reshef had something to vdo in creating it 
as a National anthem.

This information comes from The Jewish Encyclopedia.
