AQUINO (Philip d'), in Latin Aquinas or Aquinitus, having turned from Judaism, had a pension from the clergy of France; and acquired much reputation by his knowledge of the Hebrew language, which he taught at Paris, in the reign of Lewis XIII. and by the books he published, among which is his Dictionarium Hebræo-Chaldaeo-Thalmudico Rubbinicum. His grandson, Anthony D'Anquin, was first physician to Lewis XIV.
