Yosef ben Meir Teomim was a Polish/German posek and Talmud scholar. In 1744 he left Lemberg (Lvov) for Komarno, where he married and served as the town melamed, devoting many hours to learning and composing his various works. In 1767, he moved to Berlin in order to devote himself undisturbed to his studies and his writing, and it was there that he published some of his works. Upon the death of his father, the townspeople of Lemberg implored him to take the former's place. After several years, he finally agreed, and in 1774 he returned to serve as dayan, darshan (preacher) and rabbi of Lemberg. In 1781 he was appointed rabbi and av beit din in Frankfurt. Though he published several works on different Torah subjects, his fame derives from Pri Megadim, a comprehensive super-commentary on Shulchan Aruch and its early commentaries.
