<p> senior minister of the Spanish and Portuguese [[Congregation]] in London, England, was born Dec. 26, 1796, in Amsterdam. Having been duly prepared in his native country for the [[Jewish]] ministry, besides having studied several modern languages, he came to England, having been elected minister of the Sephardi Congregation of London. In 1831 he began to preach in the Portuguese synagogue, and his sermons were in all probability the first ever delivered in the English tongue in those precincts. He died Oct. 29, 1860. Besides some sermons, he published A [[Historical]] [[Essay]] on the Poets, Poetry, and Melodies of the Sephardic Liturgy, to E. Aguilar's ancient melodies of the liturgy of the Spanish and Portuguese [[Jews]] (London, 1857): '''''—''''' [[Eighteen]] Treatises from the Mishna, translated in connection with M.J. Raphall (q.v.) (ibid. 1845, 2d ed.): '''''—''''' The [[Festival]] Prayers according to the [[Custom]] of the German and [[Polish]] Jews, the [[Hebrew]] text with an English translation (ibid. 1860, 6 vols.). See Picciotto, Sketches of Anglo Jewish History (ibid. 1875), p. 359 sq.; Furst, Bibl. Jud. 3, 349. (B.P.) </p>
