BARUCH BEN ISAAC OF REGENSBURG
- BARUCH BEN ISAAC OF REGENSBURG
- BARUCH BEN ISAAC OF REGENSBURG (second half of
12th century), talmudic scholar. He was a member of the
bet din of Regensburg, together with
isaac b. jacob ha-lavan of prague , Abraham ben Moses of
Regensburg, and Judah he-Ḥasid b. Samuel (Sefer
Ḥasidim, ed. by J. Wistinetzki (19242), 390). Baruch
was one of the teachers of abraham b. azriel , the author of
Arugat ha-Bosem. There is record of a question addressed to
Baruch and his two fellow judges by R. Joel ben Isaac ha-Levi
(Sefer Ravyah, no. 1031). Baruch engaged in disputations with
his older contemporary eliezer b. nathan of Mainz, who esteemed
him highly, and with isaac b. samuel ha-zaken of Dampierre. Some
scholars have incorrectly identified him with
baruch b. isaac of worms , author of the Sefer
ha-Terumah.
