Polish Talmudist of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; born at Polock; died probably in Palestine. He was preacher at Prague and at Kalisz; and after the death of Israel Darshan he went to Yaroslav. From 1701 to 1711 he was a beneficiary of the bet ha-midrash of Bärmann Levi at Halberstadt, and he was finally sent by his benefactor to Palestine. Seelig was the author of "Kesef Nibḥar" (Amsterdam, 1712), a homiletic commentary on the Pentateuch, and of "Ḥibbure Liḳḳuṭim" (ib. 1715), collectanea consisting of Talmudic novellæ and responsa.
