Judah Hadassi

Karaite rabbi · Academics · Born 1100

Judah ben Elijah Hadassi was a Karaite Jewish scholar, controversialist, and liturgist who flourished at Constantinople in the middle of the twelfth century. He was known by the nickname "ha-Abel," which signifies "mourner of Zion." Neubauer thinks that "Hadassi" means "native of Edessa"

Judah Hadassi is read about 7.5 times a day, in 6 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 25 June 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
