Benjamin Dionyse Ben-Immanuel Musafia [1]
a Jewish savant, celebrated also as a physician, was born about 1619. He practiced medicine with great repute at Hamburg and Gliickstadt. As an author he is noted for his treatise on Potable Gold ( מֵי זָהָב ). He also made additions to the Hebrew Lexicon of Nathan benJechiel (q.v.) under the title of מוּסִ הָעָיוּךְ . Besides, he compiled a dictionary entitled וֶכֶר רִב , giving the Hebrew words in seven poems for all the days of the week (Amst. 1635; Wilna, 1863). He also wrote the disputes between R. Jacob Sasportas and himself, entitled עֵדוּת בְּיִעִקֹב , The Testimony In Jacob (Amst. 1672). He commented on the Jerusalem Talmud, and studied a subject that was still more obscure and intricate, since he tried to explain the Flux And Reflux Of The Sea, a treatise which he dedicated to king Christian IV of Denmark, under the title מֵי הִיִּם (Epistola Regia De Maris Reciprocatione [Amst. 1642]).
