Abraham David Taroç

Abraham David Taroç (Hebrew: אברהם דוד בן שלמה אברהם טארוש, Avraham David ben Shlomo Avraham Tarosh) (Arabic: إبراهيم داود بن سلومو إبراهيم, التاراس, Ibrahim Dawud bin Salumu Ibrahim al-Taras; died 1392) also known as Abraham Toros was a 14th-century Sephardic Jewish jeweller and aristocrat, who is known for legally being married to two women at the same time in the Catholic Principality of Catalonia.

[3] In his mid-twenties, he became a very prominent pearlsmith in Barcelona and was one of several highly trained Jewish jewellers who made collections for Queen Eleanor of Aragón.

Later in his life, like his father, he began to loan large sums of money to Christian aristocrats in Peratallada, Catalonia.

[6] In 1379 Abraham was unprecedentedly granted permission by King John I to make a legal exemption and be able to remarry while remaining married to Bonadona, who, it seems, could not give him children.

The fact that the King made a legal exemption and defied Christian law in order to grant Abraham this request, demonstrates the lenient and tolerant attitude that was held for Jews by John I of Castile.
