Hoter ben Shlomo (''Hoteb/Hatab ben Shlomo'', ''Manṣūr ibn Sulaymān al-Dhamārī'', ''Manṣūr ibn Sulaymān al-Ghamari'', c.1400–c.1480) was a scholar and philosopher from Yemen who was heavily influenced by the earlier works of Natan'el al-Fayyumi, Maimonides, Saadia Gaon and al-Ghazali. The connection between the ''Epistle of the Brethren of Purity'' and Isma'ilism might have suggested the adoption of this work as one of the main sources of what would become known as “Jewish Ismailism” as was found in late medieval Yemenite Judaism. This “Jewish Ismailism” consisted of adapting Ismaili doctrines about cosmology, prophecy and hermeneutics. There are many examples of the Brethren of Purity influencing Yemenite Jewish philosophers and authors in the period 1150-1550.〔D. Blumenthal, "An Illustration of the Concept 'Philosophic Mysticism' from Fifteenth Century Yemen," and "A Philosophical-Mystical Interpretation of a Shi'ur Qomah Text."〕〔Blumenthal, David R. The Commentary of R. Hoter Ben Shelomo to the Thirteen Principles of Maimonides, Etudes sur le judaisme médiéval, vol. 6 (Leiden: Brill, 1974.〕〔Blumenthal, David R. Philosophic Mysticism: Essays in Rational Religion (Ramat Gan: Bar Ilan University Press, 2005)〕〔Blumenthal, David R.The Philosophic Questions and Answers of Hoter Ben Shelomo, Etudes sur le judaisme médiéval, vol. 11 (Leiden: Brill, 1981)〕 For example, chapter two of the Judaeo-Arabic theologic-philosophical work by Natan'el al-Fayyumi, ''The Garden of Intellects'' (''Bustan al-‘uqul''), written in Yemen in 1165, includes a correspondence between the numbers 1 through 10 and ten scientific and philosophical concepts (soul's faculties, senses, directions, bodily substances and parts, etc.) most of which are identical to those listed by the Brethren of Purity. Some traces of Brethren of Purity doctrines, as well as of their numerology or Hurufism, are found in two Yemenite philosophical midrashim written in 1420-1430: "''The Glad Learning''" (Midrash ha-hefez) by ''Zerahyah ha-Rofé'' (''Yahya al-Tabib'') and the "''Lamp of Intellects''" (''Siraj al-‘uqul'') by Hoter ben Solomon. Ḥoter’s ideas are expounded in his ''al-Qawāʿid'' "Commentary" (Maimonides’ ''Thirteen Principles'' )", the ''Sabʿīn Masʾala'' "Seventy Questions" and ''Miʾa Masʾala'' "One Hundred Questions", listed together as ''Sheʾelot u-Teshuvot Hoter ben Shelomo'', the ''Sirāj al-ʿUqūl'' "Lamp of the Intellects", a midrash to the Torah, and ''Sharh ʿalā Perush ha-Mishna'' (ha-Rambam'' ) "Explication of () Commentary to the Mishna".〔David Blumenthal.
