On Louis Ginzburg's opinions

Latest comment: 20 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

This article was initially based on the Louis Ginzberg's 1906 article in the Jewish Encyclopedia. Ginzburg considers the Berab's attempt aimed at the restoration of Semicha to be a part of a Messianic vision, and, in particular, he writes that

"...the imaginative and sentimental persons thought that the promised Messianic time was approaching..."

and calls messianic espectasions of the time to be "a delusion". He also writes that

"...the hopes of a Messiah, cherished especially in Palestine, were fundamentally wild and extravagant..."

Ginzburg also does not mention the other reasons for the re-establishment of Sahnedrin, including halachic ones.

I've attributed Ginzburg's views to him and wrote about some halachic questions of the time which could be resolved by the reestablishment of Sanhedrin. Maxim Leyenson 16:09, 2 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I intend to add he was a Palestinian rabbi to the lead, as the category has been removed by Debresser. Chesdovi (talk) 10:57, 24 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

See Category talk:16th-century Palestinian rabbis that such an edit is rejected by many editors. If Chesdovi will make such an edit, he will therefore be reverted forthwith. In addition, he is WP:FORUMSHOPPING here, so please leave your comments at the discussion I linked to. Debresser (talk) 11:22, 24 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
