Moshe Aberbach (1924-2007) was a leading educator and scholar in
Jewish studies, specialising in the field of Jewish education in
the talmudic period. This book draws on a representative selection
of his writings over a fifty year period, and includes essays on
Saadia Gaon and Maimonides, coverage of biblical and talmudic
studies, and discussions of the roots of religious anti-Zionism and
of the Lubavitch messianic movement in the context of similar
movements in Jewish history. Focusing on the history of Jewish
education and linking the Roman destruction of the Jewish state in
70 CE with Jewish survival after the Holocaust, and how survival of
both depended on a strong system of education and the moral example
set by teachers, the book explores the vital importance of
education to Jewish survival from biblical times to the present.
The book includes an autobiographical memoir of Moshe Aberbach's
childhood in Vienna, as well as a biographical Foreword by his son,
David. It will be of great interest to Bible scholars and students
of Jewish Studies, History, the Holocaust and Jewish social
psychology.
