Who was Joshua ben Israel Benveniste?
Joshua ben Israel Benveniste was the brother of Chaim Benveniste, and a disciple of Joseph Trani. He was a physician and rabbi at Constantinople in 1660.
Benveniste prepared Mishmeret Ha-Miẓvot, a metrical version of the Azharot, with commentary; and Lebush Malkut, a hymn in the style of Gabirol's Royal Crown, of which medical science constitutes the foundation. Azulai claims to have seen both of these writings in manuscript at the house of a rabbi in Constantinople.
