BAMBERG, SAMUEL BEN BARUCH
- BAMBERG, SAMUEL BEN BARUCH
- BAMBERG, SAMUEL BEN BARUCH (first half of the 13th
century), rabbi and paytan. Samuel was born in Metz, but
lived in Bamberg, after which he was called. He studied under his
father, baruch b. samuel of Mainz, and eliezer b. samuel of
Metz. He corresponded on halakhic problems with
eliezer b. joel ha-levi , Simḥah b. Samuel of Speyer, and
isaac b. moses of Vienna, and was highly esteemed by leading
contemporary scholars. Like his father, he was a talented poet, and
fragments of his prayer book have survived. The name
is mentioned in the Memorbuch of
Nuremberg, but it is difficult to assume that he was one of the martyrs
there. meir b. baruch of Rothenberg was his pupil. For a time
Samuel was regarded as the author of Likkutei ha-Pardes
(Venice, 1519), but this view is no longer accepted. Of his works no
more than excerpts and fragments of his responsa remain. His decisions
are of a very independent nature, though his style is modest and
austere.
