Russian rabbi and mathematician. He wrote "Keneh Ḥokmah," the meaning of which in Proverbs 4:5 is "buy wisdom," but which here means "the scientific measure." It is a manual of algebra in five parts (Wilna, 1829). Benjacob says that Nissan was the son of Abraham Deliatitz, but Fürst makes him the son of Elijah b. Abraham Deliatitz.
