It is an all too common belief that Jews did nothing to resist
their own fate in the Holocaust. However, the parallel realities of
disintegrating physical and psychological conditions in the ghetto,
and the efforts of ghetto undergrounds to counter both
collaborationist judenrat policies and the despair of a beaten down
population, could not but lead to a breakdown in spiritual life.
James M. Glass examines spiritual resistance to the Holocaust and
the place of this within political and violent resistance. He
explores Jewish reactions to the murderous campaign against them
and their creation of new spiritual and moral rules to live by. He
argues that the Orthodox Jewish response to annihilation, often
seen as unduly passive, was predicated in the insanity of the times
and can be seen as spiritually noble.
