''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam son of Jacob (''Meshullam ben Ya'akov'') also known as ''Rabbeinu Meshullam hagodol'' (Rabbi Meshullem the great) was a Franco-Jewish Talmudist of the twelfth century CE.〔Heinrich Graetz History of the Jews - Page 113 〕 He had a Talmudic Yeshiva in Lunel which produced several famous men, and was an intimate friend of Abraham ben Isaac, ''Av beth din'' of Narbonne, who addressed to him several responsa, and spoke of him in high terms. His Talmudic decisions are quoted in ''Sefer ha-Terumot.'' ''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam was interested also in philosophy. According to ''Rabbeinu'' Yehudah ibn Tibbon, whom he encouraged to translate Bahya ibn Paquda's ''Al-Hidayah ila Fara'id al-Qulub'' into Hebrew (''Chovot ha-Levavot'' or "Duties of the Heart"), he wrote several works dealing with moral philosophy, advised and assisted other Jewish writers, and possessed a large library. ''Rabbeinu'' Yehudah Ibn Tibbon is never weary of praising ''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam's zeal in investigating the various branches of knowledge. ''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam was the father of the renowned ''Rabbeinu'' Asher ben Meshullam. Among ''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam's disciples, are the Ravad and the ''Baal Hama'or''. ''Rabbeinu'' Meshullam died in Lunel in 1170. ==Resources== * which cites: : *Henri Gross, ''Gallia Judaica'', p. 229. *Gitlitz, David M. & Linda Kay Davidson. “Pilgrimage and the Jews’’ (Westport: CT: Praeger, 2006), 43-. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Meshullam ben Jacob」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
