Ignaz Grossmann

Ignaz Grossmann (July 30, 1825 – March 19, 1897) was a Hungarian-born rabbi who ministered in Moravia, Croatia, and America.

In the latter year, he immigrated to America and became rabbi of Congregation Beth Elohim in Brooklyn, New York.

He retired as rabbi when his wife died, at which point he began writing translations of the Talmud and Midrash that were published in the Deborah,[3] which he was a frequent contributor to.

He also wrote "Drei Predigten" in 1868, "Die Sprache der Wahrheit" in 1870, and "Miḳraot Ḳeṭannot" (a presentation on the 613 commandments) in 1892.

His body was then sent to Detroit, Michigan to be buried, with Rabbi E. K. Fischer of Kalamazoo officiated the service.
