Abstract

One of the most distinguished figures in the history of Jewish Bible exegesis and Hebrew grammar is Rabbi Abraham Ibn-Ezra. Ibn-Ezra was born in Tudela, Spain, around 1089, and was a disciple of the Jewish-Andalusian scholars in the land of his birth. Because of the political situation in Spain in that time, he moved to Italy in 1140, and thereafter wandered, under miserable conditions, in France and England as well, until his death, presumably in 1167.
