The forgotten legacy of religious Jewish anarchism, and the
adventures and ideas of its key figures, finally comes to light in
this book. Set in the decades surrounding both world wars, No
masters but God identifies a loosely connected group of rabbis and
traditionalist thinkers who explicitly appealed to anarchist ideas
in articulating the meaning of the Torah, traditional practice,
Jewish life and the mission of modern Jewry. Full of archival
discoveries and first translations from Yiddish and Hebrew, it
explores anarcho-Judaism in its variety through the works of Yaakov
Meir Zalkind, Yitshak Nahman Steinberg, Yehudah Leyb Don-Yahiya,
Avraham Yehudah Heyn, Natan Hofshi, Shmuel Alexandrov, Yehudah
Ashlag and Aaron Shmuel Tamaret. With this ground-breaking account,
Hayyim Rothman traces a complicated story about the modern
entanglement of religion and anarchism, pacifism and Zionism,
prophetic anti-authoritarianism and mystical antinomianism. -- .
