has abstract: (1748–1820), halakhic authority and author. Born in Gdańsk (Danzig), Avraham Danzig studied in Prague with, among others, Rabbi Yeḥezkel Landau. Danzig married and moved to Vilna, where he worked in business and refused to earn a rabbinic salary. He remained steadfast in this refusal even after he was appointed dayan (rabbinic judge) in Vilna in 1794; only after his business failed, in 1812, did he agree to receive remuneration. It was during this period that he wrote most of his books. @en
