Dear Safranim One of our faculty members is trying to find a Midrashic origin for a quote from Moses Mendelssohn which goes something like: "When I was born, my future wife was also named, but at the same time it was said that she would be humpbacked". Can anyone help with the Midrashic origin and/or the original Hebrew? THanks! David
