ELIEZER BEN SAMUEL HA-LEVI
- ELIEZER BEN SAMUEL HA-LEVI
- ELIEZER BEN SAMUEL HA-LEVI (d. 1357), German Jew, son of
Samuel b. Yakar, the ḥazzan of Mayence (also known as Tov
Elem). Eliezer, who was not a rabbi, but was titled ḥaver\>\> , is
known from his ethical will, which is preserved in several manuscripts
and first published in 1870 in a German translation (ed. by A. Berliner
in Juedische Presse, 1 (1870), 90f., 99). The Hebrew original
was afterward published by M. Guedemann (Guedemann, Quellenschr, 295–8)
and again, along with an English translation by I. Abrahams (Hebrew
Ethical Wills, 2 (1926), 1207–18). In this touching document
Eliezer requests that his children walk in God's ways, that they fulfill
strictly all the mitzvot, that they be not mercenary, and if
possible, live among Jews.
