Samuel Garmison

Samuel Garmison

Samuel Garmison was a Jewish scholar and rabbi who lived in the Land of Israel during the seventeenth century.

He was a native of Salonica, and settled in Jerusalem, where he became rabbi. Of his numerous works only two, and these in manuscript, are extant:"Imre Binah", novellæ on Talmudic treatises, and "Imre No'am", homilies; the second part of the latter is in the possession of Hakham Bashi Al-Yashar in Jerusalem. In the latter work the author quotes three others: "Imre Yosher", "Imre Emet", and a commentary on Tur Choshen Mishpat.
