Rabi Šlomo ben Jicchak známejší pod hebrejským akronymom Raši , bol stredoveký židovský rabín, najvýznamnejší komentátor Biblie a Talmudu.

Narodil sa v Troyes v kraji Champagne. V roku 1055 odišiel študovať na v tej dobe slávne ješivy v Mainzi a vo Wormse. Po návrate do svojho rodiska okolo roku 1064/65 sa živil obchodom . V roku 1070 založil v Troyes vlastnú ješivu, ktorú financoval z príjmov, ktoré mu vynášali jeho vinice. Podľa niektorých bádateľov vznikli jeho komentáre na základe odpovedí na otázky, ktoré mu kládli jeho študenti. Komentáre k Biblii a Talmudu, ktoré písal až do svojej smrti, okamžite prijali aškenázske aj sefardské židovské komunity a stali sa "povinnou" súčasťou všetkých vydaní Talmudu. Komentár k Tóre bol prvou hebrejskou tlačenou knihou vôbec

Po Rašim je pomenovaný druh hebrejskej kurzívy . Wikipedia
