Antigonus of Sokho

Antigonus of Sokho (Hebrew: אנטיגנוס איש סוכו) was one of the first scholars of whom Jewish tradition has preserved not only the name but also an important theological doctrine. He flourished in the first decades of the second century BCE.

According to the Mishnah, he was the disciple of Simon the Just (Hebrew: שמעון הצדיק).

Antigonus is the first noted Jew to have a Greek name, a fact commonly discussed by scholars regarding the extent of Hellenic influence on Judaism following the conquest of Judaea by Alexander the Great.

A street in the Katamonim neighborhood of Jerusalem is named after him.
