Preciado Bakish (Hebrew: פרסיאדו בקיש )[notes 1] was a Sephardic Jewish rabbi active in Bulgaria. He served as the Chief Rabbi of Bulgaria and was a prominent member of the Zionist Movement.
Born in 1828 at Sofia (Bulgaria) to a Sephardic Jewish family.[1] He died in Jerusalem at the age of 82 (1910). He was named Chief Rabbi of Bulgaria (1885–1889; 1895–1898[2] or 1900)[3] and Av Beit Din (Chairman of the Rabbinical Court)[4] He participated in the First Zionist Congress[5] held on 29, 30 and 31 August 1897 to Basel (Switzerland) along with three other delegates from Bulgaria (Zvi Belkovsky,[6] Karl Herbst, Yehoshua Kalef) and some 200 other members from around the world. These activities have created difficulties and Rabbi Preciado Bakish was not maintained in his functions as Chief Rabbi of Bulgaria after 1900.[7]
Notes
- ↑ Bulgarian: Пресиадо Бакиш. His surname is sometimes spelled Bakich or Baquiche (http://skachate.ru/jurnalistika/63296/index.html?page=12). The first name is sometimes written "Presiado". The first name Yakir (Hebrew: יקיר) is sometimes attributed to him. This name could match "expensive", "precious" which would mark a relationship with the Hebrew root Y.K.R. (yakar) and would be a translation of the Ladino name Preciado (or Presiado). See: http://www.sephardicstudies.org/pdf/prom_bulg_jews.pdf ; Arditti, Benjamin (Ed. 1969), Volume I, pp. 20-32. Second first name : Yits'hak (http://skachate.ru/jurnalistika/63296/index.html?page=12).
