"Samuel Manasseh Ben Israel" is a notable etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1636. The etching portrays Rabbi Menasseh Ben Israel, a prominent Portuguese-Jewish scholar, writer, and diplomat who was a key figure in the Jewish community of Amsterdam during the 17th century. Menasseh Ben Israel is perhaps best known for his efforts to negotiate the re-admittance of Jews to England, from which they had been expelled in 1290.

The etching is a fine example of Rembrandt's skill in portraiture and his use of the etching medium to capture both the physical likeness and the character of his subjects. Rembrandt's technique, characterized by a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, is evident in the intricate details of Menasseh Ben Israel's face and attire, conveying a sense of depth and texture that was revolutionary for the time.

This work is part of a series of etchings and paintings by Rembrandt that depict Jewish figures and biblical scenes, reflecting the artist's interest in Jewish culture and his relationships with Jewish contemporaries in Amsterdam. The etching is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its historical importance, as it provides a visual record of a key intellectual of the period and illustrates the cultural exchanges taking place in the diverse society of the Dutch Golden Age.

As an art piece, "Samuel Manasseh Ben Israel" is held in high esteem among Rembrandt's oeuvre of etchings and is frequently studied for its exemplary craftsmanship and its contribution to the understanding of Jewish life and prominent figures in 17th-century Europe. The etching remains an important work for scholars of art history, Jewish history, and the study of Rembrandt's body of work.
