[edit] Authorship

I have never heard of a dispute of who wrote u'nessaneh tokef. Is their any source for disagreements about the authorship? In addition, there is a whole story attributed to the writing of this prayer. Since the story has a lot to do with the prayer itself, I think that its important to first clarify what disputes there are about authorship, before anything else is added. --Sagtkd 02:59, 28 July 2006 (UTC)SAGTKD

See [1]. The poem may very well be of Romaniote origin. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 04:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

See also [2]. The piyyut has been ascribed to Yannai and his pupil Eliezer Kalir. The story of Rabbi Amnon appears to have been a later tradition. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 04:16, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Okay, thank you. --Sagtkd 23:58, 28 July 2006 (UTC)SAGTKD
