Isaiah Bakish

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isaiah Bakish (Hebrew: ר׳ ישעיה בקיש c. 1545 – c. 1620 fl. 1580s – 1620s) was a rabbi of spanish descent.[1]

He was dayan (judge) in the Beth Din (rabbinical court) of Fez. His writings deal with takkanot (sing. takkanah), exegesis and kabbalah.

The Kabbalist[edit]

Kabbalistic writings of Bakish were included in manuscript compilations containing also quotes from famous Kabbalists such as: Nahmanides (Ramban, R’ Moshe ben Nahman Gerondi); Rabbi Isaac Luria (R’ Ari zal); Rabbi Hayyim ben Joseph Vital; R’ Abraham Azulai.[2] The microfilmed collections of the National Library of Israel in Jerusalem[3] contain several of these manuscripts or microfilm manuscripts from other libraries.

In his work on Kabbalah in North Africa since the 16th c., Moshé Hallamish mentioned Isaiah Bakish.[4] In his Shorshei Hashemot the Italian Kabbalist Moses ben Mordecai Zacuto included long quotations of the R' Isaiah Bakish (16-17th c.).[5]
