- ROSENBERG, ABRAHAM ḤAYYIM (1838–1928), Hebrew writer. Born in
Russia, he wrote articles for the Hebrew and Yiddish press. He emigrated
to the U.S. in 1891, and operated a Hebrew printing shop.
Rosenberg's main achievement was the biblical encyclopedia in ten
volumes, Oẓar ha-Shemot (1898–1922). For a brief period of
time, in 1897, he coedited (with A.M. Radin) the Hebrew monthly Ner
ha-Ma'aravi, and between 1900 and 1902 Ha-Modi'a
le-Ḥodashim, a Hebrew monthly (first together with H. Rosenthal,
and in 1902 alone).
