Jacob Hagiz (1620–1674) was a Jewish Talmudist born of a Sephardic Jewish family at Fez, Morocco. Ḥagiz's teacher was David Karigal who afterward became his father-in-law. In about 1646, Ḥagiz went to Italy for the purpose of publishing his books, and remained there until after 1656, supporting himself by teaching.
