Samson ben Joseph of Falaise
Rabbi Samson ben Yosef the Elder of Falaise (Hebrew: רבי שמשון בן יוסף הזקן מפלייזא, romanized: Rabbi Shimshon ben Yosef Hazaken mi-Palaiza) was one of the Tosafot.[1] His brother-in-law was Rabbeinu Tam (his sister Miriam was married to Rabbeinu Tam), who held him in high esteem.[2]
He is mentioned in Tosafot in several places in the Talmud as someone who expressed an opinion or came up with a novel idea that was included due to its importance.[3]
He was the author of Tosafot on Shabbat (Talmud), Eruvin (Talmud), Yevamot and Hullin.[4]
He also wrote a short pamphlet in which he summarized the laws of Mezuzah. A copy of this was preserved and printed from manuscript.[5]
He was the grandfather of Rabbi Samson ben Abraham of Sens and Isaac ben Abraham of Dampierre He died a martyr's death[6] and his body was only given for burial six months after his death.[7]
