ISAAC BEN SOLOMON ISRAELI (9th-loth centuries), Jewish physician and philosopher. A contemporary of Seadiah, he was born and passed his life in North Africa. He died c. 950. At Kairawan, Israeli was court physician; he wrote several medical works in Arabic, and these were afterwards translated into Latin. Similarly his philosophical writings were translated, but his chief renown was in the circle of Moslem authors.
