INDEX.
EXPLANATORY NOTES.
For the complete index of references to _Jews_, see under _Israelites_
until 586 B. C. E. (the Babylonian Captivity) and under _Judæans_ until
70 C. E. (the Dispersion), as well as under _Jews_ and _the Jews of_
and _the Judæans of_ the various cities and countries.
Persons living before 1600 will be found under their forenames. The
rule has been violated by indexing certain Spanish Rabbis and Marranos
living before this date under their surnames, and certain Germans
and Poles living after it under their forenames. In these cases
cross-references have been made.
Persons with the same descriptive cognomen, as _Gerundi_, _Ibn-Ezra_,
_Abrabanel_, _Abulafia_, are enumerated under it, but the references
are indexed as above.
Persons bearing the same forename, as _Abraham_, _Jacob_, etc., are
arranged in the order adopted by Joseph Zedner in his “Catalogue of the
Hebrew Books in the Library of the British Museum” (1867):
“1. Those distinguished by an epithet _only_, derived from their
birthplace, rank, or occupation, arranged after the alphabetical order
of the epithets.
“2. Those followed by the word _ben_ (son of) [in our Index preceded
by those with the Aramaic form _bar_, and followed by those with the
Arabic form _ibn_ and the English _son of_], arranged according to the
name of the father.
“3. Compound names of first and family names, as _Jacob Berab_, or two
first names, as _Jacob Zeeb_, [or of first name and birthplace when the
latter follows without a preposition, or is modified to include _of_,
as _Jacob Tus_, _Abraham Bedaresi_].
“4. Family names, as _Jacob (Henry)_.”
This arrangement of Zedner’s is, however, subordinate to the
class-divisions adopted by indexers and cataloguers in general, namely:
1. Popes, according to numbers; 2. Emperors; 3. Kings and Sovereign
Princes, by countries and by number in each country; 4. Others by
appellatives, neglecting prepositions and articles.
