- Rabbi Moshe ben Mordechai Basola (Rabbi Moshe ben Mordechai Basola was born in Pesaro, Italy, in 1480, where he served as rabbi; he was of French extraction (as implied the way he singed his name ha-tzarfati, i.e. "the Frenchman"). He supported his student, Immanuel Benevento in publishing the Zohar, while he still lived in Pesaro, and his endorsement appears in the Mantuba addition of the Tikkunei ha-Zohar. In 1521 He went on pilgrimage to the Land of Israel, where he remained for a year and a half. His record of Jerusalem at the time, Shivhei Yerushalaim, ("Praises of Jerusalem"), was published by Yitzkhak ben Tzvi in 1939. On his return to Italy Basola settled in Ancona, where he became rabbi. While he lived in Ancona he fought against the ban put on the city's port by Gracia Nasi to avenge the persecution of Marranos there. The Christian French Kabbalist, Guillaume Postel, was in touch with Basola and wrote highly of him. Basola returned to the Land of Israel and settled in Safed, not long before his death in 1560.
