Isaac Guetta (Hebrew: יצחק גויטע; June 5, 1777 – February 2, 1857) was a Talmudic scholar and educationalist.

Biography

Isaac Guetta was born in Tripoli, Libya, into a family tracing back to Jews who arrived in the Near East from Huete, Spain. He spent a significant portion of his life in Triest. In his later years, Guetta relocated to the Holy Land, where in Tiberias and Safed he played a pivotal role in establishing Talmudic seminaries.

Guetta authored four volumes of novellæ to the Babylonian Talmud, published in Leghorn (1846–47) and in Vienna (1851–56) under the title Sedeh Yiẓḥaḳ.[1]

His grandson was the Hebrew poet David Ara, author of the collection Ḳol Dawid (Venice, 1880).
