Moritz Abraham Levy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moritz Abraham Levy (also M. A. Levy; 11 March 1817 – 22 February 1872) was a German rabbi, orientalist, paleographer and numismatist.

Life

Levy was born on 11 March 1817 in Altona. His life path is not known in detail. He was trained as a rabbi and at the same time devoted himself to scientific work. When and where he received his PhD degree is unknown. He became a teacher at the Jewish Community of Breslau, in which he was active for almost thirty years. Among other things, he taught at the Jewish Theological Seminary of Breslau founded by Abraham Geiger.

Levy was awarded the Professor title by King Wilhelm I of Prussia in 1865. He was a prolific writer who, in addition to his monographs, regularly published in the Zeitschrift der Deutschen Morgenländische Gesellschaft and also processed the estate of Ernst Osiander.

Levy died on 22 February 1872 in Breslau. He was buried in the Old Jewish Cemetery of Wrocław.
