Moses Mendelssohn Writings on Judaism, Christianity, and the Bible An English translation of key works, many never before translated, by Moses Mendelssohn, the founder of modern Jewish philosophy. That is, from reading Rawidowicz, and Myers's excellent assessment of him, one can surmise that the moral crisis in Israel is not the result of the war in or the intifadas in and Instead, the crisis begins in , with Israel refusing to offer protection to the Arab refugees, most of whom were innocent victims of a bloody war, and then making it unreasonably difficult for those who remained to acquire citizenship in a new Jewish state that was envisioned by its architects as a model for tolerance.
But in that was not the case, and many at that time knew it.
Between Jew and Arab: The Lost Voice of Simon Rawidowicz
And now, when historians such as Benny Morris have provided evidence to undermine the Israeli myth that Arabs left Palestine primarily on the advice of their leaders Rawidowicz and others knew this myth was untrue in the early s , we Jews have much to account for…We owe David Myers a debt of gratitude for giving us Simon Rawidowicz's lost voice: He traces Rawidowicz's birth in Grayewo, Poland, the son of Rabbi Chayin Yitzhak Rawidowicz -- a merchant scholar, ardent Hebraist and Zionist -- and young Simon's early education and the impact of his father in shaping the mind of this most promising of students.
He follows the family in their migration to Bialystok in and then journeys with Simon to Berlin, which, before the rise of Nazism was the cultural destination of brilliant Jews who had left the world of the yeshiva to be trained in universities and seminaries. Anyone who has read Myers' earlier work will be rewarded by the intelligibility, the lucidity of his writing.
He clarifies even the most complex ideas and finds no need to demonstrate the subtlety of his learning and intellectual talent by obfuscation.
