The Gaon Moses Meshullam ben Samson Egra (1752-1801) was a Galician rabbi.
Rabbi Egra was born in Buczacz, Galicia, but was living in Brody by the age of nine. At about that age he delivered a casuistic homily in the large synagogue of Brody, and had a discussion with its rabbi, Isaac Hurwitz, whose son-in-law he became. He was a contemporary of Rabbi Sender Margoliouth , with whom he discussed ritual laws, and the master of Rabbi Jacob Lissa. Egra was at first rabbi of Tusmenetz, later becoming rabbi of Presburg.
