a Jewish philosopher of some note, flourished in Spain during the latter half of the 13th century. He was a contemporary of the celebrated Falaquera, and, like him, well versed in Arabian philosophy. Albalag possessed greater natural endowments than Falaquera, but, wanting that independence of mind which made the latter so justly celebrated, he failed to take as prominent a position. He died about 1294. About 1292 he edited and improved Alghazali's Makasid Alphilsapha, under the title of הִיֲעוֹת תַּקּוּן . A part of it has been published by Schorr in Chaluz, 4 (1859) and 6 (1861). See Gratz, Gesch. d. Juden, 7, 252 sq. (J. H. W.)
