who flourished towards the end of the 14th century, is the author of אבקת רוכל, or an eschatology of Judaism, in three parts-the first. treats of the sufferings in the Messianic time, of the advent of the Messiah, resurrection, last judgment, and world to come; the second treats of reward and punishment, paradise and hell; the third of the oral law (Rimini, 1526 and often); a Judaeo-German translation appeared at Fuirth in 1691, and the first part was translated into Latin by Hulsius, Tractatus de Messia (reprinted in his Theologia Judaica, Breda, 1653).
