Moses Shabbethai Beer (Hebrew: שבתי משה באר, Italian: Moisè Sabbato Beer; died May 6, 1835) was an Italian rabbi. He was born in Pesaro, and he officiated as rabbi in Rome from December 1825.^[2] He was admitted to interviews with Popes Leo XII and Gregory XVI in 1827 and 1831, respectively, in order that he might plead on behalf of his community.^[3] This was the first time in the history of the Roman Jews that one of their representatives was permitted to appear in person before the pontiff.
