German Talmudist; lived at Frankfort-on-the-Main in the middle of the eighteenth century. Engaged by the Jewish community as "porsher" (
, one who extracts from a slaughtered beast those sinews that are proscribed as food), he published on this subject a valuable work (Frankfort-on-the-Main, 1750); and was also the author of the works: "Zikron Ma'aseh" (A Memento of the Affair), reconciliatory advice to dissenting parties in the congregation of Frankfort-on-the-Main (ib. 1753); and "Zikron Teru'ah" (Memorial of the Trumpet), directions in regard to blowing the shofar.
