Jacob ben Isaac Ashkenazi was a Polish rabbi and preacher in the late 16th and early 17th centuries who would travel to different towns and speak about the weekly Torah portion. He specialized in weaving together the biblical text along with homiletical interpretations from midrashic and other sources, as demonstrated in his most famous work, Tze’enah URe’enah, a Yiddish translation and commentary digest that was popular especially among Ashkenazi women.
