Jacob Ben-Moses Akkasi

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Jacob Ben-Moses Akkasi [1]

of Huesca, lived towards the end of the 13th century. Nothing is known of him except that he translated the Mishna commentary to the treatise Nashim ( נָשַׁים ) from the Arabic of Maimonides into Hebrew for the Jews of Rome in 1298. Gratz is of opinion that his name is not Akkasi , but Abbasi. See Furst, Bibl. Jud. i, 29; Gratz, Gesch. D. Juden , 7, 284. (B. P.)
