Selichot

Joseph was the author also of a number of liturgical poems (piyyutim). Besides the short hymns in the style of Ibn Ezra with which he concludes each section of the commentary, he wrote the following selihot:

  • ד' אליך עיני ישברו, believed by Zunz to have been written on the martyrs of Blois and Bray
  • מועד אדון כתקח, fourteen strophes
  • אדון רב העלילה, with two refrains – והשב and ושוב
  • אין לבנון די בער, fifteen strophes, ending with לה' אלהינו הרחמים והסליחות
  • אל אלהי האלהים ואדוני, fourteen strophes
  • ממכון שבתך אלהים, twenty-six strophes
