    Yosef Rosenthal (Yiddish: יוסף ראָזנטאַל; 14 February 1844 – 22 November 1913)[2] was a Polish-Jewish Hebrew writer and lawyer.

    Biography[edit]

    Born in Suwałki, Russian Poland, Rosenthal began the study of the Talmud and commentaries at an early age without the aid of a teacher, and at the same time devoted himself to the study of different languages and sciences.[3] In the 1890s he settled at Warsaw to practise law.[4]

    Rosenthal began his literary career in 1866 by contributing philological articles to Ha-Maggid.[3] He went on to write on science and current events for such Hebrew periodicals as Ha-Levanon, Ha-Karmel, and Ha-Melitz.[1] The most important of his contributions is an article on the religious system of the Sefer Yetzirah, in Keneset Yisrael [he] (1887), and some articles in Ha-Eshkol [he], a Hebrew encyclopedia (1887–88). He wrote also some responsa, one of which was published in Dibre Mosheh by Rabbi Moses of Namoset; and Derekh Emunah, four essays on religious philosophy (Warsaw, 1894).[4]

    He was noted as a chess player, and won the first prize at the Druzgenik tournament in 1885.[3]
