Itzhak TZARFARTI rRefused to sell a jewel he owned as a decoration for
the Madonna. Although the local Christians were willing to pay a great
price for it, he preferred to throw it away rather than see it become a part
of idolaterous worship. As a reward, he was granted a son of the calibre of
Rashi, who became a living spirtual jewel. One day when Rashi's mother
was pregnant with him, she was almost run down by a crusader, but a
niche opened up miraculously in a nearby wall and she was able to shelter
there. This wall later become a well-known landmark.

Schlock Rock wrote a song about Rashi.
Who was born in France and sent to Yeshiva

he founded a school and wrote commentaries?
Everyone knows it's Rashi.
Whose words are written under the Chumash,
the inside of every page of Talmud?
