Author of the Shulchan Arukh — the standard code of Jewish LAW — who was simultaneously visited nightly by a maggid, an angelic mentor (the personified Mishnah) who dictated mystical diaries (Maggid Mesharim) and stage-managed his move to Safed. The tradition's standing proof that the driest legal mind and the wildest inner life can share one skull.
