The words for Hineh Ma Tov come from Psalm 133, and have been set to a number of melodies. One of those melodies was used in the 1950’s by Rivka Sturman when she created a simple circle dance which is still done today. This modern one-wall version of Hineh Ma Tovwas created in 2000 by Silvio Berlfein. Loui Tucker presented this at the 2006 Stockton Folk Dance Camp. 2/4 meter. Music: Miami Boy’s Choir
