A Turkish Talmudist who flourished in the middle of the seventeenth century. In collaboration with Michael ben Moses ha-Kohen he wrote "Moreh Ẓedeḳ" (Teacher of Righteousness), which wasprinted in Salonica in 1655. This is in the nature of a concordance to the works of the Aḥaronim, or later casuists.
