The author Rabbi Johanan ben Meir Kremnitzer (17th century), Polish talmudist. He came from Kalisz. He was a dayyan in Mezhirech and subsequently proofreader for the Talmud edition of Frankfort on the Oder, where he stayed for three years (1697–99) at the expense of Issachar Bermann. He was responsible for the Ein Mishpat to the tractate Nedarim, which gives the references to the halakhah in the standard code. R. Kremnitzer was the author of Orah Mishor (Sulzbach, 1692), a supercommentary on the Darkhei Moshe to Yoreh De\'ah by R. Moses Isserles. He also wrote Orah Mishor (Berlin, 1723–24) to the tractate Nazir and Hilkhot Nazir in Maimonides\' Mishneh Torah, appended to which were supplements and additions to his commentary on the Darkhei Moshe. This was republished in the 1884 edition of the Romm-Vilna Talmud; to it he appended a reply to the criticism of R. Simeon b. Jacob Reischer incited by R. Kremnitzer\'s critical remarks on the Minhat Ya\'akov of R. Simeon\'s father. R. Kremnitzer\'s Zer Zahav, mentioned in his Orah Mishor, remained unpublished.
