Tossafiste et liturgiste français, actif à Paris ou à Falaise dans le premier tiers du douzième siècle, Jacob ben Samson — que certains, selon Moïse Taku, disent élève de Rachi et maître de Jacob Tam, filiation contestée par Zunz — est l'auteur d'un calendrier, le « Sefer ha-Elqoshi », commençant en l'an 1123, ainsi que de commentaires sur les Pirké Avot, sur le Seder Olam Rabba et sur d'autres traités talmudiques.

The days of this book

This book bears no memory day yet. The sources that document Jacob ben Samson give years and centuries, never a day; we do not invent one.

You know a date — a remembrance, a hilloula, the anniversary of a departure? Give it its day
