Samuel Löb Goldenberg (; 1807 – 11 January 1846) was an Austrian Hebraist and editor.
He was the founder and editor of the Hebrew periodical Kerem Ḥemed, noted for the thoroughly scientific character of its reading-matter. Among its contributors were Solomon Judah Rapoport, Nachman Krochmal, Leopold Zunz, Hayyim Selig Slonimski, Samuel Pineles, S. D. Luzzatto, Reggio, Abraham Geiger, Isaac Erter, , Tobias Feder, Joseph Perl, and Aaron Chorin. The spirit of criticism and historical investigation manifested in all their articles dealt a blow in Galicia to Ḥasidism, which had formerly counted among its followers many of the contributors to the Kerem Ḥemed.
