Biography
Jehiel Michel was the son of Rabbi Abraham Segal Epstein. Jehiel Michel authored "Ḳiẓẓur Shene Luḥot ha-Berit",[1][2] also known as "Kiẓur Shelah"[3] (1683), written after the style of the kabbalistic "Shene Luḥot ha-Berit" by Isaiah Horowitz. A second edition, with numerous additions, and containing extracts from current ethical works, was published fifteen years later at Fürth. Nothing is known of his career.[4]
