Jacob Hagiz

Jacob Hagis (or Hagiz ) (1620–1674) was a Jewish Talmudist born of a Spanish family at Fez . Ḥagiz's teacher was David Karigal ( Ḳorban Minḥah, No. 105), who afterward became his father-in-law. About 1646 Ḥagiz went to Italy for the purpose of publishing his books, and remained there until after 1656, supporting himself by teaching. Samuel di Pam, rabbi at Livorno , calls himself a pupil of Ḥagiz. There a large number of eager young students gathered about him, among whom were Moses ibn Ḥabib , who became his son-in-law, and Joseph Almosnino , later rabbi of Belgrade (Moses Ḥagiz, Mishnat Ḥakhamim, No. 624). Another son-in-law of his was Moses Ḥayyun ( Azulai , Shem ha-Gedolim ), father of Nehemiah Hayyun . Jacob Ḥagiz was active in the opposition to Shabbethai Ẓebi and put him under the ban ( Grätz , l.c. x. 475, note 3). About 1673 Ḥagiz went to Constantinople to publish his Leḥem ha-Panim, but he died there before this was accomplished. This book, as well as many others of his, was lost ( Moses Ḥagiz , in the introduction to Halakot Ḳeṭannot ). He also wrote: Teḥillat Ḥokhmah, on Talmudic methodology, published together with Samson of Chinon 's Sefer Keritot (Verona, 1647): Amsterdam 1709 edition here , Warsaw 1884 edition (without Sefer Keritot) here Oraḥ Mishor , on the conduct of rabbis (an appendix to the preceding work; 2d ed., with additions by Moses Ḥagiz, Amsterdam, 1709) Petil Tekhelet, on the Azharot of Solomon Gabirol (Venice, 1652; 2d ed., London, 1714) Eẓ ha-Ḥayyim, on the Mishnah (Leghorn, 1654-55; 2d ed., Berlin, 1716) Ḥagiz also translated the Menorat ha-Ma'or of Isaac Aboab into Spanish (1656)
