Myer Lyon (leoni) came to Jamaica in 1789 and became the finest cantor in the synagogue then located at the corner of Barry and Orange Streets in Kingston. He adapted the Slavic melody to the ancient Hebrew Hymn text "Yigdal" which is a standard in most Ashkenazi synagogues. He wrote the hymn "The God of Abraham Praise" which became a standard in many Christian churches. He is buried in the old Jewish cemetery on Elletson Road near Windward Road in Kingston


If you think a small island can’t pack a punch, you haven’t visited Jamaica. Our playful spirit, natural beauty, and prolific history guarantee an endless assortment of things to see and do.
