- Teḥillat Ḥokhmah, on Talmudic methodology, published together with Samson of Chinon's Sefer Keritot (Verona, 1647; Amsterdam, 1709; Warsaw 1884 (without Sefer Keritot))
- Oraḥ Mishor, on the conduct of rabbis (an appendix to the preceding work; 2d ed., with additions by Moses Ḥagiz, Amsterdam, 1709)
- Petil Tekhelet, on the Azharot of Solomon Gabirol(Venice, 1652; 2d ed., London, 1714)
- Eẓ ha-Ḥayyim, on the Mishnah (Livorno, 1654–55; 2d ed., Berlin, 1716)
- Ḥagiz also translated the Menorat ha-Ma'or of Isaac Aboab into Spanish (1656)
