Re:  RnTK's comment that <<Wessely was an observant Jew. I 
think he wrote part of Mendelssohn's Biur (on Vayikra?) >>

R' Naftali Hertz Wiesel, (a.k.a., Hartwig Wessely, both rav 
and poet) wrote the Biur for Vayikra.  It is a most 
fascinating peirush. I reread at least parts of it every 
year. The Biur on Shemot and part of Breishit were written 
by R' Shlomo Dubno and are also top quality.  R' Shlomo also 
wrote the Tikkun Sofrim, masoretic comments on these two 
chumashim, an excellent job even if Prof. R' Menahem Cohen, 
of reconstituted Keter fame, shows that, in removing 
incorrect metagim according to Ohr Torah's shita, Dubno 
removed the wrong ones.
