•••••
Orchot Tzaddikim (ארחות צדיקים) is a book on Jewish ethics written in Germany in the 15th century, entitled Sefer ha-Middot by the author, but called Orḥot Ẓaddiḳim by a later copyist. Under this title a Yitranslation, from Yiddish which the last chapter and some other passages were omitted, was printed at Isny in 1542, although the Hebrew original did not appear until some years later (Prague, 1581). Subsequently, however, the book was frequently printed in both languages. The author of the work is unknown, although Guedemann  (Gesch. iii. 223) advances the very plausible hypothesis that he wasLipmann Muelhausen
