- GERONDI, SOLOMON BEN ISAAC
- GERONDI, SOLOMON BEN ISAAC (13th century), Spanish
liturgical poet. Gerondi was a student of Naḥmanides (see
Tashbeẓ, no. 456). According to L. Zunz he composed five
poems which include his variation of a favorite theme among medieval
poets, the "Thirteen Attributes of God"; "Shav min
ha-Pesilim," a hymn on the patriarch Abraham; and an elegy for the
Ninth of av (Shekhurat ve-Lo mi-Yayin). The latter
became very popular among Sephardi and Ashkenazi Jews.
