Moses ben Mordecai Zacuto
Moses ben Mordecai Zacuto ( 1625 – 1 October 1697), also known by the Hebrew acronym ''ReMe"Z'', was a rabbi, Kabbalist, and poet. Zacuto, who was born into a Portuguese Marrano family in Amsterdam, studied Jewish subjects under Saul Levi Morteira (an elegy on the latter's death by Zacuto was published by D. Kaufmann in ''REJ'', 37 (1898), 115). He also studied secular subjects, such as the Latin language. As a pupil of Morteira, he may also have been, as a youth still in Amsterdam, a fellow student of Baruch Spinoza.〔Scholem, Gershom, and Jozeph Michman. "Zacuto, Moses ben Mordecai." ''Encyclopaedia Judaica''. Ed. Michael Berenbaum and Fred Skolnik. 2nd ed. Vol. 21. Detroit: Macmillan Reference USA, 2007. 435-437. Gale Virtual Reference Library. Web. 13 Dec. 2013.〕

He was inclined to mysticism from his youth, and at one time fasted forty days that he might forget the Latin which he had learned, since, in his opinion, it could not be reconciled with kabbalistic truths. To continue his Talmudic studies he went from Amsterdam to Poland, as is clear from the letter of recommendation which he gave at Venice in 1672 to the delegates who had come to Italy to collect money for the oppressed Polish communities.〔The letter apparently makes specific mention of the ''Yeshiva'' in Posen.〕 It was his intention to make a pilgrimage to Palestine, but on the way he was persuaded to remain as rabbi in Venice, where he stayed, with the exception of a short residence in Padua, from 1645 until the summer of 1673.〔The ''Jewish Encyclopedia'' source article mentions the fact that he seems to have had a (older?) brother called Nehemiah, at whose residence in Venice Moses Zacuto may have stayed for a while when he first arrived there. Gershom Scholem in the ''EJ'' article mentions also a possible brief stay in Verona.〕 He was then called to Mantua at a fixed salary of 300 ducats, and remained there until his death, twenty-four years later. His epitaph is given by Wolf (''Bibl. Hebr.'' iv. 1200) and by Landshuth (''Ammude ha-'Abodah,'' p. 215).
