Lamdan is a late Hebrew language Hebrew expression for a man who is well informed in rabbinical literature, although not a scholar in the technical sense of the term talmid hakham it does not seem to have been used before the 18th century. Ezekiel Katzenellenbogen 1670 1749 decided that rabbinical scholars were exempt from paying tax es even though scholars then were not scholars in the proper sense of the word, for the law does not make a difference between lamdan and lamdan Resp. Keneset Yechezkel, Choshen Mishpat, No. 95, p. 118a, Altona, 1732 . Jacob Emden Megillat Sefer, p. 21, Warsaw, 1896 speaks of Baer Kohen Berent Salomon , the founder of the Klaus in Hamburg , as having been somewhat of a scholar ketzat lamdan, the equivalent of the Judeo German language German ein st ckel lamden . Authorities of the sixteenth century, when they have to speak of the difference between a scholar in the technical sense of the word and a well informed man, do not use the term lamdan, but say tzurba me rabbanan see Joshua Falk ha Kohen in Sefer Me irat Enayim, Choshen Mishpat, 15, 4 Shabbethai ha Kohen, ib. 1, 19, and Yoreh De ah, 244, 11 .

John of Valladolid born 1335 was a Spanish Jewish convert to Christianity. An able speaker, and possessed of some knowledge of rabbinical literature, he persuaded King Henry II of Castile that he could convince the Jews of the truth of Christianity if they were obliged to listen to him and to answer his questions. An order was accordingly issued, compelling the Jews to attend John s lectures in their synagogues and to discuss them with him. In company with another Jewish convert, John traveled throughout the Castilian provinces and lectured and debated in the synagogues, but with lack of success. At vila, Spain vila , he assembled the Jews four times and discussed with them the tenets of Christianity before numerous Christian and Moslem audiences. At Burgos he summoned Moses ha Kohen of Tordesillas to a religious controversy in the presence of Archbishop Gomez of Toledo . John endeavored to demonstrate from the Bible the Messianic claims and the divinity of Jesus, and the truth of the dogma of the Trinity and of other Christian doctrines. Thus, for instance, he claimed that the final closed mem used in Isaiah ix. 6 is an allusion to the immaculate conception . Moses ha Kohen refuted arguments of this kind, and the controversy was broken off in the middle of the fourth sitting.

unreferenced date December 2011 Coen is a given name and surname . Coen bold is a Germanic variant of the name Conrad , most popular in the Dutch language. It is originally spelled as Coenraad or Koenraad , with just the raad deleted off. Both variations are made up from two words koen meaning brave and raad meaning advice . The name translates to brave advisor . If someone s official name is Coenraad , they often use the more casual shorter version in everyday life thus Coen same for the Koenraad variety . This is a first name, given to boys, never to girls. Though this is a first or personal name, there are people who have it as a surname. Due to the nature of the Dutch language it is pronounced differently from, for example, English. In Dutch it will sound as one syllable Koen like coon in raccoon , instead of 2 syllables KOE en , like Cohen . Cohen on the other hand, is completely different name with a Hebrew origin meaning priest . In fact, a Kohen is someone who is a direct descendant of Aaron. Cohen should not be confused with Coen .
