Jacob ben Chayyim Comprat Vidal Farissol

Jacob ben Chayyim Comprat Vidal Farissol (born c. 1405 - fl.

1422) was a French Jewish scholar of the early 15th century.

[1] Farissol was a pupil of Solomon ben Menahem, or "Frat Maimon," under whose supervision he composed, at the age of seventeen, a commentary to Judah ha-Levi's "Cuzari" entitled "Bet Ya'aḳob," which was published in 1422.

[2][3] Farissol is also likely identical with the liturgical poet mentioned by Zunz ("Literaturgesch."
