History register · custodian, not owner

Editor, and perhaps author, active in the sixteenth century. He edited the « Maḥzor Sefardi » (Venice, 1584) and had printed at his own expense, the same year, a Jewish calendar covering the period 1585–1639. He might be identical to the author of « Shemen Sason », a treatise on the Massorah citing ancient works on the subject, itself cited in the « Or Torah » of Lonzano and the « Minḥat Shai » of Norzi.

SASON, JOSEPH BEN JACOB

This entry is not yet translated: it is shown in French.

Éditeur et peut-être auteur ; il a vécu au seizième siècle. Il a édité le « Maḥazor Sefardi » (Venise, 1584) ; et un calendrier juif pour la période 1585-1639 a été imprimé la même année aux frais de Sason. L'auteur du « Shemen Sason », Joseph Sason, peut être identique au sujet du présent article. Cet ouvrage est un traité sur la Masorah, dans lequel sont cités les anciens travaux s'y rapportant, _par ex._, le « Shte Aḥyot ». Il est cité dans le « Or Torah » de Lonsano et le « Minḥat Shai » de Norzi (comp. Dukes, « Ḳonṭres ha-Masoret », p. 24, Tübingen, 1846).
