About Rabat
Rabat, a city on the Atlantic coast of Morocco, had a long-established Jewish community within Moroccan Sephardi Jewry. It was the birthplace, in 1847/48, of Rabbi Raphael Aharon ben Shimon, who later served for some thirty years as Chief Rabbi of Cairo and was a figure in the bringing to light of the Cairo Genizah.
