As we all rely, in one way or anoth- er, on translations in our work, it may not be surprising that we received a large number of submissions for the current issue of PaRDeS, the journal of the German Association for Jewish Studies (Vereinigung für Jüdische Studien, VJS). We want to thank all colleagues who sent us their proposals and ask for the understanding of those whose articles we could not include in this issue. All the articles we did include were further improved by the comments and suggestions of the anonymous peer reviewers. Many of them engaged with the texts very deeply, spending much of their precious time and expertise on them. On behalf of the authors, we thank them for their commitment to advancing scholarship in this sometimes thankless role. We are grateful to be able to rely on these colleagues to ensure the high standard of scholarship that PaRDeS aspires to uphold. Much the same goes for our book reviewers. We appreciate the time they took to assess recent publications in our field of Jewish studies, providing a service to the scholarly community. As always, we welcome suggestions for works to be reviewed in future issues. Speaking of reviews: We thank the Jewish Review of Books, edited by Abraham Socher, for permission to re-print a review by Eitan P. Fishbane of Daniel Matt’s translation of the Zohar into English. Given our reliance on translations – their availability and quality – for teaching and research, we address the practical side of the topic in an infor- mal survey. We are pleased with the many suggestions we received regarding which works in the field of Jewish studies should urgently be (re-)translated, into which language(s), and why. Last but not least, special thanks go to those who made the actual produc- tion of PaRDeS possible: Dr. Frank Schlöffel, our typesetter, dealt with complex tasks stemming from the very topic of this issue, which includes more Hebrew than in other issues. Dr. Anne Popiel, our indefatigable copy editor, saved us from embarrassing mistakes that non-native speakers are prone to make. Our 6 Editors’ Preface liaisons at Potsdam University Press, Dr. Andreas Kennecke, Kristin Schettler, Felix Will and Marco Winkler, graciously fielded our many requests and made the production of PaRDeS a smooth and enjoyable process. The production of this issue of the journal was generously supported by the School of Jewish Theology at the University of Potsdam, and by Prof. ­Jonathan Schorsch, chair of Jewish Religious and Intellectual History there. Finally, we thank the board of the German Association for Jewish Studies for entrusting us with editing PaRDeS.

  • Why Jews Quote
    Oral Tradition, 29/1 (2014):5-46 Why Jews Quote Michael Marmur Everyone Quotes1 Interest in the phenomenon of quotation as a feature of culture has never been greater. Recent works by Regier (2010), Morson (2011) and Finnegan (2011) offer many important insights into a practice notable both for its ubiquity and yet for its specificity. In this essay I want to consider one of the oldest and most diverse of world cultures from the perspective of quotation. While debates abound as to whether the “cultures of the Jews”2 can be regarded integrally, this essay will suggest that the act of quotation both in literary and oral settings is a constant in Jewish cultural creativity throughout the ages. By attempting to delineate some of the key functions of quotation in these various Jewish contexts, some contribution to the understanding of what is arguably a “universal human propensity” (Finnegan 2011:11) may be made. “All minds quote. Old and new make the warp and woof of every moment. There is not a thread that is not a twist of these two strands. By necessity, by proclivity, and by delight, we all quote.”3 Emerson’s reference to warp and woof is no accident. The creative act comprises a threading of that which is unique to the particular moment with strands taken from tradition.4 In 1 The comments of Sarah Bernstein, David Ellenson, Warren Zev Harvey, Jason Kalman, David Levine, Dow Marmur, Dalia Marx, Michal Muszkat-Barkan, and Richard Sarason on earlier versions of this article have been of enormous help.

  • History of Our Holocaust Memorial Scroll, Second Sefer Torah, Mantles, Aron Kodesh and Ner Tamid, Yad and Rimonim
    July 5, 2020 BET MISHPACHAH Washington, D.C. History of our Holocaust Memorial Scroll, Second Sefer Torah, Mantles, Aron Kodesh and Ner Tamid, Yad and Rimonim Memorial Scroll. In 1979, Bet Mishpachah president Michael Greenwald arranged for us to acquire our first Sefer Torah: a Torah scroll originally from the Czech town of Dolni Kounice. It is a fragile Holocaust Memorial Scroll placed on permanent loan to Bet Mishpachah by the Westminster Synagogue in Knightsbridge, London. In 1964, Westminster Synagogue acquired 1,564 rescued Czech Torah scrolls; since then they have generously placed 1,400 of them in synagogues around the world. Placement and coordination of these scrolls is handled by the Memorial Scrolls Trust of London (www.memorialscrollstrust.org). In late 1979, still bearing a catalogue number painted on the handle of one of the wooden rollers (akin to the numbers the Nazis tattooed on their prisoners), Memorial Scroll #703 found a new and loving home with Bet Mishpachah. Dolni Kounice. Dolni Kounice is a small town in Moravia, which became part of Czechoslovakia and is now part of the Czech Republic. The Jewish community in Dolni Kounice began in the 14th century. Over the years, they faced many perils, including the destruction of their synagogue, laws limiting the number of Jews allowed to live there, a fire in the 1830s, a devastating flood in 1862, and finally the forced deportation of the town’s entire Jewish community to the Auschwitz death camp. The only survivor was our Torah scroll. Jerry Goldberg (president of Bet Mishpachah in 1980) and his brother Myron visited Dolni Kounice in 1985; they found the boarded-up synagogue and were shown the Jewish cemetery.

  • How Is a Torah Made?
    How is a Torah made? By Rabbi Amy R. Scheineman The scribe prepares parchment sheets While printed editions of the Torah abound, in both Hebrew and English translation, and with many different commentaries, when the Torah is read in the synagogue on Shabbat and holidays, it is read from a hand-written scroll, called a Sefer Torah, in keeping with age-old tradition. It takes several months, and often as a long as a year to complete one Sefer Torah. The Sefer Torah is written by a scribe, special trained for this holy task, on sheets of parchment. The parchment must derive from a kosher animal, usually a cow, and is meticulously prepared by the scribe, who first soaks the skin in lime water to remove hairs, and then stretches the skin over a wooden frame to dry. The scribe scrapes the skin while it is stretched over the wooden frame to remove more hair and smooths the surface of the skin in preparation for writing on it with the use of a sanding machine. When the skin is dry, the scribe cuts it into a rectangle. The scribe must prepare many such skins because a Sefer Torah usually contains 248 columns, and one rectangle of parchment yields space for three or four columns. Thus a Sefer Torah may require at more than 80 skins in all. When the parchment sheets are ready, the scribe marks out lines and columns using a stylus, which makes a mark in the skin that has no color, much as if you ran your fingernail across a sheet of paper.

The focus lies primarily on the cultural concepts communicated by the wordings and the stylistics employed, and secondarily on their interpretation by investigating parallel applications in the Tanakhic writings. By discussing parallels in the language cultures of the Tanakh and the New Testament translations the thesis aims at shedding light on the cultural affinity between the Tanakh and the New Testament. The question this thesis will try to assess is if Hebrew versions of the New Testament, despite being mere translations, demonstrate language characteristics verifying such an affinity.

    Source Sheet on Prohibitions on Loshon ha-ra and motzi shem ra and disclosing another’s confidential secrets and Proper Etiquette for Speech Deut. 24:9 - "Remember what the L-rd your G-d did unto Miriam by the way as you came forth out of Egypt." Specifically, she spoke against her brother Moses. Yerushalmi Berachos 1:2 Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai said, “Had I been at Mount Sinai at the moment when the torah was given to Yisrael I would have demanded that man should have been created with two mouths- one for Torah and prayer and other for mundane matters. But then I retracted and exclaimed that if we fail and speak lashon hara with only one mouth, how much more so would we fail with two mouths Bavli Arakhin15b R.

  • Oneg 6 – Toldos 2018
    1 Oneg! A collection of fascinating material on the weekly parsha! Rabbi Elchanan Shoff Parshas TOLDOS Avraham begat Yitzchak (Gen. 25:19). The Or Hachaim and R. Shlomo Kluger (Chochmas Hatorah, Toldos p. 3) explain that it was in Avraham’s merit that G-d accepted Yitzchak’s prayers and granted him offspring. Rashi (to Gen. 15:15, 25:30) explains that G-d had Avraham die five years earlier than he otherwise should have in order that Avraham would not see Yitzchak’s son Esau stray from the proper path. I saw in the name of R. Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld (Chochmas Chaim to Toldos) that if Yitzchak had not campaigned vigorously in prayer to father a child, G-d would have granted him children anyways after five years. So in which merit did Yitzchak father his children, in Avraham’s merit or in the merit of his own prayers? Both are true: It was only in Avraham’s merit that Yitzchak deserved to father Yaakov and Esau, but the fact that the twins were born earlier rather than later came in merit of Yitzchak’s prayers. R. Sonnenfeld adds that the Torah’s expression equals in Gematria the (748 = ויעתר לו י-ה-ו-ה) that denotes G-d heeding Yitzchak’s prayers .The above sefer records that when a grandson of R .)748 = חמש שנים) phrase five years Sonnenfeld shared this Gematria with R. Aharon Kotler, he was so taken aback that he exclaimed, “I am certain that this Gematria was revealed through Ruach HaKodesh!” Yitzchak was forty years old when he took Rivkah—the daughter of Besuel the Aramite from Padan Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramite—as a wife (Gen.
