Spain)\u2014ruled from Jerusalem but in 1538, Rabbi Jacob Berab who came from Spain via Egypt, sought to revive the Sanhedrin, in Safed, thus making that city the competing capital of the Jewish community in Palestine. He was opposed and exiled by ibn Habib and the rabbis of Jerusalem but Safed remained the competing capital for a number of years thereafter. Berab was succeeded in Safed by Joseph Caro (b. Spain) who was ordained by him.David ben Solomon ibn Abi Zimra of the Egyptian rabbinate\u2014ruled simultaneously in Jerusalem succeeding ibn Habib. In 1575, Moshe Trani (b. Greece) succeeded Caro in Safed.Moshe ben Mordechai Galante of Rome\u2014ruled from JerusalemHaim Vital\u2014succeeded Trani in Safed but moved his rabbinate to Jerusalem which, once again, became the sole capital of Israel.
