Jacob ben Abraham Kahana (Hebrew: יעקב בן אברהם כהנא; died 1826), a rabbinical author. His father was rabbi at Brestowitz, government of Grodno. Jacob was the son-in-law of Rabbi Issachar of Vilna, brother of the Vilna Gaon. He lived with his father-in-law, and was supported by him for many years, so that he was able to devote his time to the study of the Law; and he became one of the leading Talmudical scholars in Vilna. After Issachar's death Jacob was appointed trustee of the charities of the city. He died in Vilna.
