Polish Hebraist and Talmudist; born at Lublin, Russian Poland, July 15, 1787; died at Odessa Jan. 17, 1870.

He contributed a number of articles on Biblical and Talmudic subjects to "Ha-Meliẓ," "Ha-Karmel," and "Ha-Maggid," and wrote "Mi-Moḥorat ha-Shabbat" (Vienna, 1860), on Pentecost, directed against the Karaites.
