Moses Galante (the Younger)
- Moses Galante (the Younger)
Moses Galante (the Younger) (1621 – February 4, 1689 Jerusalem), was the son of Jonathan and grandson of Moses Galante (the Elder). He wrote "Zebaḥ ha-Shelamim," a harmonization of contradictory Biblical passages and of Biblical with Talmudical statements (edited by his grandson Moses Ḥagis, Amsterdam, 1707-08), and "Ḳorban Ḥagigah," halakic and kabalistic "novellæ" (Venice, 1714). He served as the first Rishon Le'Zion and was called מגן with reference to the initials of his name. Some of his "responsa" are found in the works of contemporaries, and a volume of his "responsa" exists under the title "Elef ha-Magen," but has never been published (as of 1906). Hezekiah da Silva was among his disciples.
