Eliezer and Uriel Shkolnik are both eccentric professors, who have dedicated their lives to their work in Talmudic Studies. The father, Eliezer, is a stubborn purist who fears the establishment and has never been recognized for his work. Meanwhile his son, Uriel, is an up-and-coming star in the field, who appears to feed on accolades, endlessly seeking recognition. Then one day, the tables turn. When Eliezer learns that he is to be awarded the Israel Prize, the most valuable honor for scholarship in the country, his vanity and desperate need for validation are exposed.

  • Morgenstern Is a Senior Fellow at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem
    Dispersion and the Longing for Zion, 1240-1840 rie orgenstern t has become increasingly accepted in recent years that Zionism is a I strictly modern nationalist movement, born just over a century ago, with the revolutionary aim of restoring Jewish sovereignty in the land of Israel. And indeed, Zionism was revolutionary in many ways: It rebelled against a tradition that in large part accepted the exile, and it attempted to bring to the Jewish people some of the nationalist ideas that were animat- ing European civilization in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centu- ries. But Zionist leaders always stressed that their movement had deep historical roots, and that it drew its vitality from forces that had shaped the Jewish consciousness over thousands of years. One such force was the Jewish faith in a national redemption—the belief that the Jews would ultimately return to the homeland from which they had been uprooted. This tension, between the modern and the traditional aspects of Zion- ism, has given rise to a contentious debate among scholars in Israel and elsewhere over the question of how the Zionist movement should be described. Was it basically a modern phenomenon, an imitation of the winter 5762 / 2002 • 71 other nationalist movements of nineteenth-century Europe? If so, then its continuous reference to the traditional roots of Jewish nationalism was in reality a kind of facade, a bid to create an “imaginary community” by selling a revisionist collective memory as if it had been part of the Jewish historical consciousness all along. Or is it possible to accept the claim of the early Zionists, that at the heart of their movement stood far more ancient hopes—and that what ultimately drove the most remarkable na- tional revival of modernity was an age-old messianic dream? For many years, it was the latter belief that prevailed among historians of Zionism.

  • Hypocrites Or Pious Scholars? the Image of the Pharisees in Second Temple Period Texts and Rabbinic Literature
    HYPOCRITES OR PIOUS SCHOLARS? THE IMAGE OF THE PHARISEES IN SECOND TEMPLE PERIOD TEXTS AND RABBINIC LITERATURE Etka Liebowitz* ABSTRACT: This article focuses upon Josephus’ portrayal of the Pharisees during the reign of Queen Alexandra, relating it to tHeir depiction in other contemporary sources (the New Testament, Qumran documents) as well as rabbinic literature. THe numerous Hostile descriptions of the PHarisees in botH War and Antiquities are examined based upon a pHilological, textual and source-critical analysis. Explanations are tHen offered for the puzzling negative description of tHe PHarisees in rabbinic literature (bSotah 22b), wHo are considered tHe predecessors of the sages. THe Hypocrisy cHarge against tHe PHarisees in Matthew 23 is analyzed from a religious-political perspective and allegorical references to the Pharisees as “Seekers of Smooth Things” in Pesher Nahum are also connected to the Hypocrisy motif. THis investigation leads to tHe conclusion tHat an anti-PHarisee bias is not unique to the New Testament but is also found in JewisH sources from tHe Second Temple period. It most probably reflects the rivalry among the various competing religious/political groups and tHeir struggle for dominance. Who were tHe PHarisees – a small religious sect, an influential political party, or a mass movement? Attempts to define and describe tHe pHenomenon of tHe PHarisees Have aroused considerable scholarly debate for decades.1 THis article will focus upon Josephus’ portrayal of tHe PHarisees during tHe reign of Queen Alexandra in The Judaean War and Judaean Antiquities and attempt to understand How it can sHed ligHt upon tHeir depiction in otHer Second Temple period texts – tHe New Testament (MattHew) and Qumran documents (Pesher Nahum), as well as in rabbinic literature (bSotah).

  • 1 Draft 11/28/17 Not for Circulation Without Author's Permission Constructing Justice: the Selective Use of Scripture in Fo
    draft 11/28/17 not for circulation without author’s permission Constructing Justice: The Selective Use of Scripture in Formulating Early Jewish Accounts of the Courts (forthcoming HTR) David C. Flatto In the opening pages of his magisterial overview of Jewish law, the late Justice Menachem Elon underscores the venerable pedigree of the Jewish court system, which traces back to the Bible.1 Emphasizing this point upfront rightly draws attention to the notable focus in Jewish discourse on the judicial process. Whereas modern democracies have understood that a commitment to the rule of law requires the establishment of a well-designed judiciary, ancient legal systems primarily stressed substantive law. But the Jewish legal tradition, among others, always focused on process alongside substance. In addition to elaborating legal rules, doctrines and dialectic arguments, the foundational works of Jewish law concentrated on devising structures for administering law.2 Beyond the common ancient procedures of turning to a local sage or elders for a decision, or the nearest Temple for a cultic instruction, biblical literature presents more elaborate judicial schemes.3 Similarly, the Mishnah includes an entire tractate (Sanhedrin) devoted to the organization and function of the courts. Maimonides, who describes the high court in Jerusalem as the core of the Oral Law,4 dedicates a whole volume of his halakhic code to delineating rules of judges and the courts.5 The vivid depictions of the courts in seminal Jewish writings signal their centrality, but the nature of these portraits deserves renewed attention. Elon’s overview implies that literary accounts of the courts reflect legal practice, an assumption shared to varying degrees by much classical scholarship.

  • Hayyim Nahman Bialik - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Hayyim Nahman Bialik - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Hayyim Nahman Bialik(9 January 1873 – 4 July 1934) Hayim Nahman Bialik, also Chaim or Haim, was a Jewish poet who wrote primarily in Hebrew but also in Yiddish. Bialik was one of the pioneers of modern Hebrew poetry and came to be recognized as Israel's national poet. <b>Biography</b> Bialik was born in the village of Radi, Volhynia in the Ukrainian part of the Russian Empire to Yitzhak Yosef Bialik, a scholar and businessman, and his wife Dinah (Priveh). Bialik's father died in 1880, when Bialik was 7 years old. In his poems, Bialik romanticized the misery of his childhood, describing seven orphans left behind—though modern biographers believe there were fewer children, including grown step-siblings who did not need to be supported. Be that as it may, from the age 7 onwards Bialik was raised in Zhitomir (also Ukraine) by his stern Orthodox grandfather, Yaakov Moshe Bialik. In Zhitomir he received a traditional Jewish religious education, but also explored European literature. At the age of 15, inspired by an article he read, he convinced his grandfather to send him to the Volozhin Yeshiva in Lithuania, to study at a famous Talmudic academy under Rabbi Naftali Zvi Yehuda Berlin, where he hoped he could continue his Jewish schooling while expanding his education to European literature as well. Attracted to the Jewish Enlightenment movement (Haskala), Bialik gradually drifted away from yeshiva life. Poems such as HaMatmid ("The Talmud student") written in 1898, reflect his great ambivalence toward that way of life: on the one hand admiration for the dedication and devotion of the yeshiva students to their studies, on the other hand a disdain for the narrowness of their world.
