What text should be said in 'V'nomar l'fanav': 'shir chadash' or 'shirah chadashah'?
Synopsis
The Magen Avraham (citing the Bach, RSha'L, and Shelah) rules one should say 'shir chadash' (masculine), not 'shirah chadashah' (feminine), because it refers to the past redemption from Egypt, and some hold that the Hallel was recited by Moshe and Israel at that time.
