In Hebrew and English. “Silber (1881–1946) was a Lithuanian-born Orthodox rabbi who grew to become a leader in American Zionist Orthodoxy. For 35 years, Silber was a role model for Orthodox Jewish life in Chicago and across the country. He differed from his peers in his fluent English, being well-versed in American history, literature and culture, and advocating a synthesis of secular and Talmud study. He also worked closely with non-Orthodox rabbis on communal matters. In his later years, Silber was a prominent member of Mizrachi, attending several World Zionist Congresses abroad. ” (EJ) CONTENTS: “Free government in ancient Israel, ” by I. H.
