Aaron ben Mordecai of Rödelheim

Aaron ben Mordecai HaLevi of Rödelheim was a German-Jewish translator, who flourished early in the eighteenth century. He translated the two Targums on Esther into Judæo-German in the early years of the eighteenth century; and the first edition, bearing the title Meẓaḥ Aharon, appeared at Frankfort-on-the-Main in 1718. It has since been reprinted (Steinschneider, "Cat. Bodl." col. 724). He was the father-in law of Kalonymos of Heuberg.
