you are a God who hides
Those who see God’s glory are destroyed; Impossible to receive light from Messiah without a sheath. Light of Messiah son of Joseph, = secret of higher and hidden shadows; All elevated to level of Isaac. Light of God’s delight proceeds to be revealed in all power of His holiness. We are called to diminish anguish of Shekhinah and declare in great voice that we are content in suffering, ready to ascend the altar in sanctification of the Name. Pyre, = altar of Isaac, became a nation, a whole people. Shadows from hidden dimension out to hide light, and shadows to benefit light Order of Redemption revealed once revelation begins on its path. All growth from sowing. Order of every higher revelation like sowing where seed is buried in bowels of what is hidden. From there emerges. In material realm, different lengths in womb of time, so in spiritual revelations. Different time lengths to concealment, to secret of “pregnancy” and development.

Would place stamp on God's creation. First time in world history when creation so terribly stained, polluted. Can humankind still be mended (tikkun) and cldeanse itself of the sin of murder against creation? I think not. World descended into deepest void, into abyss of holocaust (Umkum) of chaos (tohu vavohu).until today, we did not know a single person could be incarnation of all evil, of original malice and wrongdoing. What sort of demonic power must a single human being possess, to be able to poison human feeling of millions? need new yetsirah, new bereshit.
However, as hypnotiziing as power of evil is, effect of good is even stronger. All positive, effective elements can be incarnated in a single human being who will reconstrruct the wolrd from out of the destruction. And perhaps such a human being is already standing behind our backs, with words of remeption in his mouth.

1) by intention to extirpate a people;
2) unparalleled systematic planning, extent of killing,
3) dehumanization of victim;
4) not for material, political, territorial advantages but because of group's putative r acial identity. dehumanization intertwines with attribution of degeneracy to entire people. Each Jew by racial character, blood, was subhuman.

1 Amir: Meaning of Galut Holocaust points to Galut as metaphysical alienation.
3 Harvey. Assumption of Metaphysical evil diminishes human responsibility.

Most discussions conducted by poets, novelists, dramatists.

2 Ahituv: Zionist understandings. Can still believe in God. A) Merkaz HaRav (Kook), messianic faith and mystification of Israeli nationalism. 1967 Victory sign God still at work.

Annihilation revealed consistent premeditation, from Nazi ideological Weltanschaung to enforcement. Thread from Hitler's and Himmler’s ideas to schedules.

4 Rosenberg. Shoah defined by metaphysical mysteriousness and resistance to philosophical analysis. Holocaust means finding faith and meaning beyond the absurd. At center of concern is not God but Judaism and meaning of Jewish existence.

When Jew killed because he is a Jew, this emphasizes special existence of people of Israel in world and glorifies God’s great name.

Any discussion of Nazi annihilation of European Jewry should lead not only to an examination of evil but revision of regular ways of speaking about evil. Silence from 1948 to last decade of 20 c. among Israeli intellectuals to speak of Shoah.
Orthodoxy seeks to derive from annihilation some truth that would assuage and renew energy for belief and hope, and show way along a path of norms to rebuild religious way of life

1) attempt to murder by undermining grounds of existence and exterminating every individual;
2) exacting plan;
3) implementation advanced that result aberrant quantitatively;
4) motivation: Destroy as Jews. Not for material, or survival interest, or religious views, nor for deeds or omissions or beliefs, or competition; Out of purely ideological motivations.
5) Prior to murder, attempt to destroy humanity by degrading torments.

Uniqueness self evident among Jewish researchers (See Shaul Asch; For non-Jews, subtopic in research on WWII, totalitarianism, Nazi regime (See Davidowitz).
Question. Is Shoah unique?

Not on another planet. This planet embodies within it very extreme dichotomy, more extreme than imagined before the Shoah. Extreme to point of creating a reality of total evil on its surface as articulation of theatening potential contained within. How such dichotomies created? One of great questions.
Experience of eyewitnesses transferred to researchers who didn’t experience and place Shoah into comparative framework of war crimes, reflecting willingness to understand, acknowledge as human and even forgive.

Vs

Victims and researchers respond by completely refusing to consider acts within range of human behavior. Perpetration means borders of humanity breached by something foreign and humans lack tools to understand it.
H rooted in foundations of western civ and J-C ethos. Refutation of that history.
Fackenheim: Shoah revealed that everything that society and Western culture thought about itself was fundamentally refuted, because in opposition to everything expected;

H Tranformed reality into another planet totally different from what was known before. Creating death. Don’t credit with word philosophy. Ideology. Every philosophy has spiritual infrastructure. Depth of philosophical event shown by fact that Philosophy neither predicted nor prevented Shoah. Such philosophy can’t be true. Need another philosophy to make Shoah impossible. But what will new philosophy be?

Rational and Understandable. Human. Vs Irrational and Not Understandable. Another Planet. Can't be understood.
Two position for non unique invite reflection. 1) Arendt; “banality of evil”. Retreat into banality due to failure to discover significance in “absolute evil.” Exceptionality does not add meaning. But Not banal if unique;

2) Orthodox; Not unique.

But is it unique?

3) F: humanity bears responsibility.

821Schweid, Eliezer000Conf on Jewish theology after Auschwitz, 1999 sponsored by Memorial foundation for Jewish Culture In Ashkelon, 1999.

Can be compared to identify sim and diff from similar events. Done on pp. 237.

For Fackenheim H is a philosophical event that is incomparable but doesn’t stop comparing it. Makes it central to examine fundamentals of history. Exception can repeat; took place against background of what preceded it. Refutation of that history. Contradicted everything.
What is of universal meaning in H?

F's view that “Shoah refutation of history of Western culture and philosophy" based on Hegelian philosophy. Such refutation leaves no room for creation of anything. Exception that proves rule. Problematic.

So had to correct radical stance without admitting it by talking to survivors. Shoah refuted idealistic philosophy.

Abandonment by natons of Israel denied nations any right to preach morality to a state of Israel defending itself against a second Holocaust. Jewish people obligated to defend selves. Maintaining loftier norms of war demonstration of weakness. Would invite immorality.
F’s lack of understanding means understanding was incorrect.

Judges Orthodox views ranging from “hiding His face” to punishment for the sins of majority and argument that Shoah brings no new challenge to theology (See Immanuel Jakobivtz, “Religous Responses ot the Holocaust,,” L’Eylah 25 (April 1988): 2-7).
Zionism killed goal of assimilation uniting survivors of Holocaust into covenant of destiny.

Goal of Zionism = normalization. Completed upon achievement (1967) leading to loss of mission and covenantal values.

In 6 day war, faced Holocaust. Amazing victory demonastrated... proof that Zionism justified. Alone foresaw.

Still advocates special mission

State must preserve Jewish character. Can’t have total normalization.
State of Israel confirms Spinoza that idea of choseness developed to advance worldly interests. Once state founded, esp after 6 Day War, spiritual zionism retreated; Confirmed egotistical competition as basic value rather than covenantal values.

Goal is to integrate Jewish people into family of nations. So increasing reservations about zionism.
1929-Israel, Jerusalemhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliezer_Schweid
822Schweid, Eliezer000Bauer admits similarities but argues that characteristics concentrated and distilled. Shoah at end of continuum in terms of planning and execution. Hence aberrant and unique.Does Israel have special mission? = root of insoluble dispute regarding anti-Semitism and Jewish otherness

Does Idea of Jewish Election have meaning after H?

Is it possible to find after H in existence of Jewish people some positive message of universal import by which its uniqueness is expressed?

From Jewish perspective, is unique fate result of election or inferiority?

Can find religious groups that believe this is immoral and racist.
Before Holocaust Jews struggled for acceptance. Before all agreed Jewish existence unique in relation to environment. At root Jewish identification as chosen people vis a vis peoples who competed over status. Jew hatred exacerbated due to ambiguity of Jewish posing challenge of differentness. Rejection of Christianity insufferable for Xians and moderns. Response: assimilate or withdraw to another nation = common basis for antisemitism and zionism. Theological and philosophical formulation deeming Judaism inferior carried out by Paul and Spinoza. Jewish separateness challenge to moderns. Jews claim equal partnership in creation of Western culture. Some claiming this fulfilment of mission as chosen people.
Post holocaust generation has not extrapolated from its life tendenices sense of being chosen in sense of goal or destiny.
Spinoza: source of religion is aspiration for power. Jewish chosenenss = self-election justified while benefitted people. In end created more woe than good. Left religion but prophesied that people would have to leave and found state

H. Refuted idealistic philosophies on which Jewish religious philosophers imparted rational meaning to myth of Sinai and divine providence.

Another version from conclusion: refuted philosophical myth of idealistic humanism which identified D. Prov with human reason legislating human progress toward messianic goals. Henceforth to rely upon Divine guidance in history in any form = irresponsibility.

F: negative answer. Ultra and O adhere to fundamentalist interpretations of myth of Exodus and Sinai. Belief strenghthened by H. But H irreparably undermined basis for belief in Divine providence.

Holds also for secular social and national movement. Myth of chosen people as conceived in Bible and commentaries, God who chose Self a people and gave it Torah to testify to His Kingship undone experientially and intellectually.
Harbinger of political zionism. Internalized by Haskalah Zionism, return to natural national existence led to rebirth of idea of election. Superhuman effort needed to actualize.

Sources of Emanciation: prophetic Judaism. Larger society refused to accept, rejecting own values.

Leadership turned to strengthening Jewish selfhood.
In eyes of J humanists, WWII = war of man in image of Satan vs man in image of God. United survivors into covenant of destiny. F. 614th comm. requires correction in distortion of relations between Jewish people and Western culture. Practical conclusion = strengthening of state of Israel.
1) Most Jews (non rel) find Impossible to discover in life experience the “fingerprint” of Divine providence. Reliance on such irresponsible. Also expressed by Orthodox such as Y. Leibowitz and Y. Greenberg. Orthodox entrenchment in providence and revealed torah self-refuting. Fundamentalism = refusal to think in critical terms bec of foreknowledge that critical thinking undermines faith. (False premise). If belief judged by behavior, change of orthodox to political activity and worldly interests speaks volumes. 1929-Israel, Jerusalemhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliezer_Schweid

824Schweid, Eliezer000What is the signficance of Zionism after H?

On what basis in reality is moral responsibility incumbent upon individuals, societies, peoples to be based?

Can one revive unique universal sense of mission which underlies covenant? Does Torah still have basis and purpose?
Self righteous superiority has nothing to do with mission. So what do they want? That their people devest themselves of national and religious egotism? All avoid discussion. From both perspectives, idea of choseneness mired in absurdity. 1929-Israel, Jerusalemhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliezer_Schweid

Mocks High Court. Mocks idea of justice.
Why doesn't God intervene in history? (Donat's ?).
Main question for Donat: Is there an advantage to a moral system from which God is banished?
Does atheism make it easier for Jew to accept reality of life after Auschwitz?
Freedom of choice is foundation of Judaism.
God is not “the God of miracles" but of moral assertion; vs pagan nature gods.”
Morality obligates individuals and humanity.
God doesn’t regularly interfere in history. 40 years are a special time. God has the power to intervene but he usually doesn't.
Donat's atheism exchanges faith in God for faith in continuity of Jewry. Neither logical nor spiritual. Pushed by rebellion against surrounding helplessness; destruction may be total but leaves no room for building. Solution is a puff of wind. 1902-1989Israelhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moshe_Unna

Criticizes Unna’s unshaken belief in God avoids real question: How to believe in a God who is Satan. Now must demand human morality for purpose of society’s existence. Emphasis that Judaism stresses freedom of choice is a fig leaf cover up. Did God give a choice to murdered children? Did they choose to go into gas chambers? Nazis had freedom of choice, not victims.
.
At Auschwitz saw failure of humanity juxtaposed with nonexistence of God. Faith disappointed because at its heart was something nonexistent. Let’s believe because faith is useful even if untrue. Man created God. We must demand human morality for purpose of society’s existence. 1926-Israelhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yehuda_Bauer

902Bauer, Yehuda JbJb41SMH Job had freedom. Children and wife did not. Human beings are arbitrary victims of God who plays cynical game with Satan. So if God exists, then he is Satan. If He is not Satan, then he does not exist. Job's Questions.
But final question is not question: "does religion help? Is faith better than nihilism?" All these are utilitarian questions. Donat’s question is different: "is there truth in religion?"
I reject any argument that explains why God did not prevent murder of million Jewish children. Morality of Satan.Faith in God failed because not based on truth. Holocaust proved this. Answer leads to sources of human morality. Man created God in his own image. Buber and Wiesel say that God exists in history but makes free choice to not see, not to intervene, to do nothing. Inaction leads to mass murder. 1926-Israelhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yehuda_Bauer

Perhaps idea of election is source of the sanctified hatred of the other?
Perhaps God should be taken out of history. If history only human, reality all content should be removed from faith except compulsion to carry out rel obligation (Torah l'shema, for its own sake). Genesis more historic than cosmological. Cause of flood in Genesis is social-moral; central category of this history; first covenant between God and humanity. But Jewish people by observing covenant become subject to unique laws of providence that transcend overall providence of God over history. God, as subject to covenant, can’t allow people to be annihilated. Idea of election may be source of the sanctified hatred of the other, readiness to ignore other’s religiosity and culpability to not empathize.

3. Rav Kook possible for Jews to return to world politics.
For Christianity, abject state of Jews irrefutable proof that God abandoned covenant with people of Israel.
Redemption signalled by land producing fruit

Secularism alternative for understanding reality. No messiah, no providence.
Rabbis have no supreme knowledge of God and Torah to explain divine intentions underlying current historical and political moves.


Reviews Zionist options: 3 periods.
1) X-1960. History normal political process.
2) 1960s-1980s. Merkaz HaRav. Notion of divine prov based on mystical Israeli nationalism. Athalta di Ge’ulah. Beginning of Redemption. Arousal below prompts arousal on high. Recognized by land producing fruit. Prayer for Redemption > Phrase beginning of emergence of our redempiton > Prayer for Safety of State.
3) Last decade complex inner development: Decline of Merkaz HaRav and rise of diffuse ideological and religious trends involving concepts that moderate notion of providence in history with denials of any divine intervention in human activity, placing full moral resp on man.

What is evil inflicted by people result of?

Should explanation be mythic kabbalistic or rational philosophic?

Former encourages resignation in face of evil, because not caused by men but by cosmic powers,

Latter emphasizes need for human rational responsibility.
Myth addresses fears that inhabit “primitive side of man’s existence.” Satan represents psychological principle that leads us to stray and deviate (GP III.22, p. 489).
Gershom Scholem treats evil as serious problem expl by ref to Satan or Sitra Ahra in kabbalistic language;
For Scholem, existence of evil is the main touchstone of the difference between the philosophic and kabbalistic outlook.
In Eichmann trial, Scholem took exception to Arendt’s “banality of evil.” No depth, no demonic dimension. She said she changed her mind and doesn’t speak of radical evil. Thought defying because thought tries to reach depth. Only good has depth and can be radical.
Need to understand psychological and political causes of those evils, to identify privations of knowledge that made them possible.
Ka tsetnik quesitoned own description of “the planet Auschwitz” now stressed run by human beings.
Arendt: “Only good has depth and can be radical.”
Only good can be radical. Alluded to radical individuals who acted to save Jews.
Evil not metaphysical.
For kabbalists, evil not privation but real entity. Satan, power of evil. Sitra Ahra, rival of Divine.
Action vs Comfort. Cold comfort to be told troubles are workings of imagination. Comfort to be told we are not responsible. We can assist God by prayer and piety. But human responsibility diminished.
If so, prevention of future tyranny and genocide not in human hands.

955Katz, Steven T. (Intro)Jb356Jb41SMH #2. More radical responses:
A = 1. New Revelation:

A. Fackenheim: Auschwitz a New Revelatoin; 614th commandment: don’t hand Hitler posthumous victories. Sacred obligation to survive. Jewish existence a holy act. Forbidden to despair. Lest Judaism perish. Resist annihilation.

B. Buber: Dialogical revelation. Personal encounter with eternal Thou. God always present. Further: commands.
Main line of enquiry as that of Sacks, centers dialogical Buberian notion of revelation and idea of commandment:
a) how do historical events become “revelatory”?
b) what is “commandment”?
c) Is reaction to Hitler main reason for continued Jewish existence?
Wyschograd very critical.




State of Israel openly reveals God’s saving presence.

Three periods: 1. biblical, God initiator. Displayed in 586. Israel through prophets responded by self-chastisement. Destruction and exile interpreted as divine punishment for sin.
2. Transformation of covenant idea by dest of 2nd T. Manifest divine presence reduced but covenant renewed. Jews take equal role. True partners.
3. Third cycle. Shoah. Covenant shattered. New relationship. God can have no claims. Covenant can no longer be commanded. Can’t demand anyone giving up life. I can ask or plead for it. Covenant now voluntary. Jews have miraculously chosen to continue to live as Jews. Jewish people so in love with idea of redemption. Israel now senior partner.

Out of very midst of agony itself he will attain eternal salvation. Agony will serve to form character to reach level of exaltedness in world bereft of suffering.

Fundamental question: What obligation does suffering impose upon man? How shall a person act in a time of trouble? What ought a man to do so that he not perish in his afflictions?
Now troubled times. Why thou show me iniqity. Hab.1:3-4
God doesn’t answer Hab. Doesn’t address self to man of fate. Judaism loves question and has placed it at center of her world of thought in Halakhah. Concerned with this problem. Need to pose ? in Halakhic form: What is obligation upon sufferer from the suffering itself? Ask not about cause of evil but about how it may be mended, elevated.
Courage and discipline.
When miracle doesn’t find its proper answering echo in deeds, exalted vision degenerates and dissipates, and justice begins to denounce ungrateful beneficiary. Distress.
Who are thou? To Jonah. To Jews.

Progress without heroic tragedy is possible. Judaism is the way to the good life. Hurban. Catastrophe. First used in 1949. Third hurban. Expulsion from Spain, Chmelnitzki = gezeirah = evil decree. Hurban = end of an era. And creates new era. Hurban = progress achieved through sacrifice. Because gentiles are involved. 2/3 Jews outside Hitler’s reach survived. Eastern European Jewry exterminated.

Frame of our mind shaped by 2 events: A and Hiroshima.
New era will lead either away from everything which led to A or continue in vein of A.
Why did Hitler single out Jew as his chief enemy? Not mania, not racism. for Jewish people to become light unto gentiles, had to become by way of Holocaust vaciarious atonement for nations in imae of suffering servant.
What has this modern golgotha achieved? End of medieval epoch, termination of era of religious authoritarianism, religious persecution,
New congregation doesn’t value martyrdom. We suffered enough. Maccabbee like Crusader.
Cross won over Mithras because world was tired of war. Somebody had to die that others might live. X unites tragedy and martydom in symbol of Cross.
Akedah. Good life is higher life but not heroic. God merciful when he doesn’t allow tears to stain faces. Picture of happiness. Cros not picture of happiness but a symbol created to comine holiness of martyrdom with nobility of tragic hero.
Eichmann trial impressed world’s conscience more than Nuremberg trial. In latter: Crime against Jews on trial as crime against humanity.
Term Hurban implies progress. Middle Ages had come to an end. Jews no only in West. Can emancipate self from all before French Rev. New commitment can say goodbye to our own middle ages. Did not say anything rabbis didn’t who said Messiah born on day Jerusalem destroyed.

Post medieval situation requires demytholgization of tradition of X and J.

Jews non Christians. In gentile world bidden to live dispersed as servant of God. Suffer vicarious death for sins of mankind. First 2 hurbans. Bec of our sins. In liturgy. After A, need not say. “Because of sins of others.” Jews and non Jews died but Jew hatred inherited from medieval church made A 20th c. Calvary of Jewish people. Reform by which Church emancipated from medieval blindness in regard ot synagogue will have ot mean much more. Judaism = seed. Out of it grows tree, church. Golgotha of modern mankind = Auschwitz. Cross = gas ch. Gentiles must be terrified to have mercy of God revealed to them and beome converted, baptized gentiles, become Christians.
Message of Cross: to gentiles: your atoning sacrifice has been brought. Don’t kill any more. Jewish message: atonement possible without sacrifice. God’s love doesn’t have to be bought.

But how do subsequent generations have acess to the vision of the maidservants to the presence of God. Holocaust theology: 2 extremes: either God is dead or all is mended. But need in between: Dasein, Recovery, fragmentariness. Third response: God in exile. Maidservants saw what Ezekiel did not but Ezekiel knows they saw. Because of this a past experience can legislate to present. This is the first condition of a root experience in Judaism. Ezekiel’s vision is not root. At Red Sea, whole people saw. Future gens recall 2x / day natural - historical event through which presence of God once manifest and Passover Seder wholly dedicated to it. Will continue to be remembered even in messianic days.

What is means of access to root experience?
Accessibility is third root experience. Jew reenacts events as present.
How to understand original event, a divine present manifest in and through natural historica event, not in heavens beyond it?
Understanding given in Buber’s Moses. Miracle = abiding astonishment. Experienced as miracle, not interpreted as. Real miracle means that in astonishing event current system of cause and effect becomes, transparent and permits a glimpse of the sphere in which a sole power, not restricted by any other, is at work.

But Jewish theologian can’t ignore present history.

Jewish crisis. Review responses.
What are the root experiences?
How be faithful to faith of past and victims of present?
Questions never asked.
UNESCO never raises questions about desecration of Jewish cemeteries and synagogues when Jordan opened Old City
Why war launched on Yom K.?
Who is a Jew, what is a Jew, what is a Jew’s relation to past? Part of holy remnant.
J & H last question
But key question is to go beyond this. Can we confront h and not despair?
Conflict between past and present critical. In past, explained by ref to punishment. No rabbi described Titus as God’s rod. Bar Kochba and Akiba born of despair.
Destruction of Jer also seen as punishment but vast R Empire out of proportion to Jews. Concept of sin inadequate to explain.
A is punishment? If this is slander, then God of history impossible. If god decreed A., this God is dead.
Rufus wasn’t called instrument by Rabbis.
When Hadrian made Jerusalem pagan, God wept.
Spurious criticisms.
Commitment to survival and unity. Took 20 years to face question. Can’t die. Can’t affirm life but forget A. 614th C. Jews now forbidden to hand Hitler posthumous vicotires. They are commanded to survive as Jews, lest the Jewish people perish. Duty to remember. A secular holiness. Nazis tried to exterminate.
Descend from cross. Live. Defend self. No martyrdom.
Don’t flee from world in pseudo Christian way, Not abandon world. World made desparate and so forbidden to despair of it.
Religious Jew must wrestle with God; secular must not use A to attack God.

Stirred by six day war in 1967, tried to think beyond Death of God theologians which would affirm God’s existence despite death camps. And affirm God’s present role through salvific existence of State of Israel. Draws on Buber. A provides form of revelation that reveals new commandment:
Why war launched on Yom K.?

Took 20 years to face question. Can’t die. Can’t affirm life but forget A.
614th C.
martyrdom ruled out by need to survive;
otherworldliness ruled out by commitment to world

1096Levinas, EmanuelEc 01.18451Ec 01.181Suffering price of reasonHolocaust of Jewish people paradigm of gratuitous human suffering where evil appears in its diabolical horror. Not subjective. Disproportion revealed in glaring clarity. Puts into quesiton multimillenial traditional faith.Philosophical problem posed by useless pain which appears in fundamental malignancy acorss events of 20th c. Most revolutionary fact of our 20th c. consciousness and event in Sacred History is destruction of all balance between explicit and implicit theodicy of Western thought and forms which suffering and its evil take in very unfolding of this century.
Disproportion shown at Auschwitz with glaring clarity. Giving Nietzsche signification of empirical fact.
1097Levinas, EmanuelJb 02.10454, n. 3Jb41Job preferred at end of book to those who hurrying to safety of heaven would make God innocent before suffering of the just; similar to Kant’s reading of it. Invokes Fackenheim. All actual cases of genocide differ in two respects: whole peoples killed for rational ends, not for own sake; Also situation of victims: Not for faith but for faith of great-grandparents who brought up Jewish children. Does not human existence attest to a malice and a bad will? A scandal.
Most upright relation to the Other: most profound adventure of subjectivity
Must humanity abandon world to useless suffering, blind forces? Or incapable of adhering to order or disordger it things diabolic, will it now in a faith more difficulty than ever, without Theodicy, continue Sacred History, demands more resources of the self. Compasison, a non useless suffering, no longer suffering “for nothing”?
Western humanity seeks meaning for scandal by invoking a metaphysical order, ethics, invisible, in immediate lessons of moral consciousness, but a kingdom of transcendent ends, willed by a benevolent wisdom, by a supernatural goodness = God, or widespread goodness in nature and history where it would command paths that are painful but which lead to the Good. Pain meaningful, subordinated to a metaphysical finality. Presupposed by theodicy. Persisted in watered down core of atheist progressivism. Presupposed by Xian Original Sin, and implicit in OT in diaspora as reflection of sins of Israel. Principal actors in drama of Sacred History people associated with this history, whose soul and destiny not limited to nationalism, whose gesture belongs to revelation, as apocalypse, which provokes thought, or impedes it.
Pain reveals unjustifiable character of suffering in other person, scandal of my justifying my neighbor’s suffering. Justifying neighbor’s pain is source of all immorality.

1098Levinas, EmanuelJb 27.05454, n. 3Jb41Job preferred at end of book to those who hurrying to safety of heaven would make God innocent before suffering of the just; similar to Kant’s reading of it. Holocaust Denial: Final act of destruction accomplished today in posthumous denial of the very fact of martyrdom by the would-be revisers of history. Does theodicy make God innocent? (Theodicy named by Leibniz 1710).Acc to Fackenheim, Auschwitz would paradoxically entail a revelatoin of the very God who nevertheless was silent at it; a commandment of faithfulness. To renounce this God after A, no longer to assure continuation of Israel, would amount to finishing criminal enterpise of NatSoc.
1099Levinas, EmanuelJb 42.07454, n. 3Jb41Job preferred at end of book to those who hurrying to safety of heaven would make God innocent before suffering of the just; similar to Kant’s reading of it. Can religiosity and human morality of goodness still retain meaning after end of theodicy?If God absent there, devil very present; hence obligation fr Jews to live and to remain Jews not to be made accopliced of a diabolical project. Jew pledged to faithfulness to Judaism and material and political conditions of its existence. Can be given universal signification.
A new modality essential to modernity which is dawning.
1100Wyschogrod, MichaelDt 25.17-19461Dt 25.17-196Torah commands memory of Amalekite assaultH: death charge generated by all Jews, believeing and unbelieving.

On other hand Jewish public wants to remember.

How to speak and speak at all after Holocaust?
Not to be addressed by H is one sure sign of exclusion from J p.
Wittgenstein: silence (about what one doesn't know). Peril to do anything else is blasphemy.
If believe in traditional God, can neither forgive or love; or blaspheme by denying.
Fackenheim has little sympathy for Rubenstein’s “for our sins we are puniushed theol” But Fackenheim also rejects it.
Question of faith can’t be circumvented by A
Nor can J be given new lease of life by it.
Being a Jew more difficult now.
Marvel at F: survival of people, not existence of God.
If tyrant wanted to extrerminate stamp collectors. Would it be a posthumous victory if stamp collectors vanished?
What was incumbent was to destroy Hitler and once that’s accomplished, free choice of every individual is restored. No further Hitler-derived burdens rest on nonbelieving Jew.
But Jewish secularism existed before Auschwitz. Doesn’t need Auschwitz to survive.
Our catastsrophe. To justify F I need theology. Fate of Israel central concern because Israel is elect peole of God through whom God’s redemptive work done in world. Suffering of others must be seen in light of Israel’s sufering. Travail of man not abandoned becase Iusrael suffers and thereby God’s presence is drawn into human history and redemption enters horizon of human existence.
On F: obedience to voice of A: commands survival of Jews and Judaism. Faith for believer; preservation of Jews and Judaism for un.
Without H, no justification for Judasm could be found. With H, J gets new lease of life. Necessary for him to think it’s a unique event. Important to not find any natural expl. But understandable that overwhelmingly terrible event would be more useful if demonstrated that it’s unique. It is because “no rational” purpose.
1101Wyschogrod, Michael018F: negative natural theology: basis: rational evidence, not faith or revelation.
F not positive, but negative. Totally uniuque crime that is ground. In positive: positive characteristic of universe noted for which no natural explanation given; here: evil for which no natural explanation is given. Conclusion can’t be identicial since problem of theodicy can’t be ignored. But conclusion that its sacred duty to preserve is functional equivalent of existence of God in psoitive natural theol.
But what is so wrong with Rubenstein’s rejection of biblical God if entails that Hitler is a scourge? Natural for man to forget. Israel’s faith always centered on acts of God: election, Exodus ,Temple, Messiah/ Acts of destruction in minor feast days while those of redemption became joyous proclamations of Passover, Tabernacles, Hannukah, Purim.
If H becomes major, that would be a demonic voice. If hope after H., it’s because voices of prophets speak louder than Hitler. And divine promise sweeps over crematoria and silences voice of A.
All events unique; no event unique. Crux is moral. We are fixated to an extend unaaceptable in univeralistic framework. Moral force of those who don’t share it must be recognized. Need to abandong “objective” criteria to show uniqueness. One notable chapter in long record of man’s inhumanity to man.
1102Berkovitz, EliezerDt 31.17-18464Dt 31.16-219Div Judgment: Mipnei HateinuNazi crime: ferocity. Conscious radical removal of every vestige of moral restraint on subhuman passions, limitless inhumanity, calculated reversal of all human values. . . not of this world. Had quality of transcendental, metaphysical barbarism. Satanic hatred. Nothing more ridiculous than to imagine it had rational foundations. Problem of Theodicy. Undeserved suffering in history. (Despite balance between this and next world; bT Kiddushin)Man has freedom and creator of values; God cannot as a rule intervene whenever man’s use of freedom displeases Him. If did so, perpetration of evil would be impossible. Galut. Exile. Dominant feature of Jewish history. Punishment for sins. Lots of ingenuity to defend it. Idea of constituting a people of God on basis of commitment to do will of God, to belief that life and death are determined by categories of good and evil, fantastic proposition. All history advises against it. But this concept became itself a fact of history. Irregular fact. Nowithstanding hurban, Israel survived. Hence Jewish philosphy of history not based on teaching alone, teachings contraditced by historical experience, nor should conflicting evidence sway. But such evidence contradicted by place of Jewish people in history, by survival of people of God, by fact that once again this people of God is back in its ancient homeland, in Zion, in Jerusalem.

In biblical & talmudic times, awareness of implication of radical theology: Like Ivan KaramazovNot why so much evil, but will J people still be witnesses to God’s elusive presence?

Rabbis spoke of silence of God not of absence. Talmud: discussion of R. Meir and Elisha ben Abuyah.

1109Berkovitz, EliezerPs 010.12465, n. 9Ps 010.121Arise O LordBut Israel’s survival has corollary. Not longsuffering forever. Israel also survived because of world judgment.

Hence question is not “why is there undeserved suffering, but why is there man?” Why a world, why creation?

1138Berkovitz, EliezerGn 22 (Allusion)479Gn 2225suffering servant of God (Is 53 allusion)To be chosen is to be chosen for bearing burden of God’s long suffering silences and absences from history. At beginninbg of history = Akeidah. Abraham, not guilty, sacrifice not punishment. What was revealed to patriarch was repeated: Gen 15:13. = Gezeira. Inscrutable divine decree. Not that there be human suffering but that there be divine long suffering.
1139Berkovitz, EliezerIs 53.04 (citation and allusion)479, 480Is 52.13, 53.6"esteemed him, stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted" God suffers because of what man does to himself. God pushed Israel across path of Xianity. Israel was God’s question of destiny to Christendom. In its answer Christian world failed him tragically. Through Israel God tested Western man and found him wanting. This failure of X has led Western world to greatest moral debacle of any civilization, the Holocaust. Xian attempt to rob Israel of dignity of Isaiah’s suffering servant saddest spiritual embezzlements in human history. How X treated Israel made Isaiah’s description fit Israel all more tragically and truly. Ignored metaphysical dignity. What is weight of one suffering compared to myriads of sacrifices of Israel? What is one crucifixion eside a whole people crucified through the centuries? God’s chosen people = suffering servant of God.

Himmler believed in God behind nature.
More devastating question to X: What did X contribute to make H possible? Work of Jules Isaac, Norman Cohn, Raul Hilberg, Roy Eckhardt, others. They will slaughter you; it’s the punishment you deserve. His blood be upon us. Vatican: nothing in measures that Holy See would find to criticize. Same ?? To modern culture. Limits broken. Archbishop; punishment you deserve for death of our Lord Jesus Christ. Papal Nuncio; there is no innocent Jewish blood in the world. Contradicts testimony of nuncio’s actions.

Harsh judgment of H on X can free Gospel love. Willingness to undergo ordeal could save or illuminate treasure.

Inverse ratio bet presence of fundamentalist X and survival of Jews. Damning. Bec attitude of local population critical variable in Jewish survival. If teaching of contempt furnished occasion or presented stereotypes, the X can be hopelessly and fatally compromised. Church’s protests on behalf of converted Jews. At end of war Vatican helped 1000s fo war criminals to escape. German evangelicals described as fitting punishment . May one morally be a X after this? Xian complicity challenges credibility of X to make these claims. Great Xians did not speak out on J Q. Jesus as Messiah will transform the world. Wager. But throwing into scales so massive a weight of evil and guilt raises question that balance is broken. Has wager of faith in Jesius been lost? Jewish T Resp to H. Critique.

Took major flowering of Judaism to restructure tradition. Medieval Judaism did not move redemption to eternal life but insisted messianic KG in this world not fulfilled by salvation in world to come. Does experience of Jews speak meaningfully to Xians? Classic X denies revelation after Easter. Xianity mocked Judaism for repudiating J. 3.

Third Era.

Where was God at A? In the starving, beaten, humiliated, gassed, burned alive, sharing the infinite pain as only an infinite capacity for pain can share it. Rabbinic Era: Xian Jews: Jews misread signs and Jesus not a continuation of Jewish way but new channel of salvation. Gospels a New Testament, not section of Old. New covenant. Jesus’ sacrifice replaced Temple and Judaism. Xian Jews very Jewish in thinking Temple’s destruction great historical event with religious message. Rabbinic response: God withdrew, became more hidden to give humans more freedom and call Jews to more responsible partnership. Might is self-restraint. God doesn’t speak. Human divine dialogue goes on through human address to God. Prayer more secular act because of silence of God. Rabbis more secular leadership than priests or prophets. Rabbinic guidance counterpart to silence of God. Equivalent to Jewish people’s maturation. 5. Holocaust showed all permitted and one can get away with murder. Restraint from Fear.

How reconcile tensions? By reenacting event normative and revelatory by community of faith will live by it. Incorporate pain into round of life we regret. Hope it will not destroy but strengthen faith. Beware of easy hope after A. Israel is perfect symbol for this. Cloud of smoke of bodies by day and pillar of fire of crematoria by night may yet guide humanity to goal and a day when human beings attached to each other. Neither classical theism or atheism is adequate. Neither is credible alone in presence of burning children.

World hasn’t made H central point of departure for moral and political policy. Threatened by repeating. Islam Soviet didn’t ask to repudiate. Why should faith be moment faith? Why should experience of nothingness ever dominate? Faith is moment truth. There are moments when it is a lie. There is a faithfulness in rejection. Serious theism must be troubled Central because cut so deeply that question arises whether community can recover. Eichmann bragged that he’d leap into grave laughing that Jews couldn’t recover. Can those who believe dare talk about God who love and cares without making a mockery of those who suffered? Dialectical faith is still possible. Polar experiences. Reasons:
1. There are moments when reality of Exodus reenacted and present.
2. Breakdown of secular absolute. Also a faith. Universalization of values cover danger to particular, e.g. Jewish existence. seedbed of idolatry. Primary resistance absolute alternative values. Barmen Conference, Jehovah W. Harvey Cox’s SC > idolatry. Mengele et al joked about this. Wittgenstein vs value-free sc to open room for transc. Vs. Protean Man. Nazism from need for roots.

Peah 1.1528, n. 8Peah 1.11Yom HaShoah and Yom Ha-Atzmaut must become central holy days of the Jewish Calendar. Why should vicissitudes of Jewish history affect divine teaching so much?
Biblical Era. Out of exodus, directly and through interpretation, revelation, generalization, comes teachings which revolutionized Jewish fate. . . Also shapes destiny of world. From Exodus entire world will be perfected.
Out of this soil grew Xian teaching of salvation, passed to other nations. Centuries later in secularized form, Marxism. Whitehead: gave rise to Western culture in which science treating nature instrumentally can grow.
Prophecy is communicative counterpart to splitting sea.

Received Torah at Sinai and at Lublin gave it back; dead men don’t praise God. Perhaps covenant is over.
Roy Eckardt Covenant opened Jews to murderous fury. Divine could not or would not save them. Therefore God must repent of the covenant, do teshuvah, for giving His chosen people a task that was unbearably cruel.
Covenant can no longer be commanded. One can ask such a sacrifice but not order it. Authority broken, but Jewish people took it again. So in love with dream of redemption that volunteered to carry on its mission.
Any Messiah who could have come and redeemed us and did not do so then but chooses to come now is a moral monster. Too late for Messiah to come.
In Bible, Jews bear message of future redemption of world. witnesses to divine concern and presence. Events which are everyday history in other people’s annals become part of sacred history of Jewish people. Tragedies and triumphs direct effects on believability and understanding of central message. God continualy calls into existence leadership needed to guide people. Need fusion of basic condition, theological message, institutional performance and leadership group.

Third era beginning under sign of great event of destruction H. And great event of redemption, rebirth of Israel.

Sometimes people say they would respond if only they were to receive clear prophetic instruction. But the revelation of our liftime is so veiled and ambiguous that there is little certainty and few clear, unassailable responses.

Translates idol as temptation. “Great evils and troubles” signify impetus for next immediate stage in Jewish history: unique point in teshuva process. Viduy confession and enumeration of sins Leaning toward Teshuva but not completion of enemuration of sins.
Ramban: stirrings of teshuva problem is disavowal of wrongdoing: declaration “I have not sinned”. Need repudiation of innocence = stirring of teshuva.
Yad V’Shem organizers coined term, but singling out quantiative differences of this hurban missed essence of uniqueness. Not proportions or dimensions but establishment of new and significant pattern in Jewish hisotyr. Related to basic pattern. Uncover two new directions. 1. Is Shoah acceptable term to describe destruction of European Jewry during WWII? Definition doesn’t signify acceptability. Term coined by founders of Yad V’Shem since convinced that tragedy unique in proportions and dimensions that no other term could encompass meaning. Answer: Shoah like H implies isolated catastrophe. Like earthquake. Hurban is integral part of our history and we dare not isolate and deprive it of monumental significance. Want to uncover Torah perspective hidden from us in untangling web of Jewish history. Two new directions of Jewish history. Ben Gurion made mistake. Leftist. Happy to teach our “choseness” in commandments and closeness to God. Peril to ignore 3 portions of tochacha: rebuke, promise of punishment in Torah Behukosai (Lev 26), Ki Savo Deut 26:1-29;8 and Nitzavim-Vayeleh Deut 29:9-31:30. Need to learn these as well as sunny parts. Exposed graphically mistake of founders of Yad V’Shem. Pattern = Hurban - Galut - Geula. Destruction, Exile, Redemption. = Answers to questions 2 and 3 obvious. Hurban a tochacha enactiment of admonishment and rebuke which Klal Yisroel carries, as integral part of being Am Hanivchar, no right to interpret as any kind of specific punishment for specific sins. Built in aspect of character of J. P. Until Messiah comes for reasons known to creator. One would have to be a Navi or Tanna, prophet or sage to claim knowledge of specific reasons for what befell us. Anyone on lesser plain tramples in vain upon bodies of kedoshim who died al Kiddush ha-Shem.

But this is cowardice and failure to deal with misfortune.Want to uncover Torah perspective hidden from us in untangling web of Jewish history. Two new directions of Jewish history.

1236Hutner, IsaacDt 28560Dt 282Disillusionment with gentile world. Pattern: Trust and repudiation of trust. H. Culmination. Legalized retraction of existing laws granting sundry privileges. Pale in face of German retractions and turnabouts. Developed Protocols for 1935 Nuremberg Laws. Racial laws. 3. If so, where does it fit in with rest of Jewish history? Pattern of disappointment revealed by deep delving into Torah as not coincidental but revealing cosmic plan of Creator. Change of move from expectation of persecution by gentiles to period of disappointment in hose people,
Hence there is revealed to us chronology and impetus of teshuva of Acharis HaYamim. First step when Klal Yisroel through repudiation of earlier infatuation with gentile wasy. Baal Teshuva.

WWII Mein Kampf. 1923. Ready by Haj Amin el-Husseini, Grand Mufti. Visited Hitler with Eichmann visited Auschwitz incognito to check efficiency. See Simon Wiesenthal. Mufti came to Berlin in 1941. Soldiers needed in Russia but Mufti demanded extermination. Choice: Juden nach Auschwitz or Soldaten nach Stalingrad resolved in Mufti’s way. 20 Jan 1942 at Wannsee Conf formal decision made to annihilate all Jews who survived ghettos.

Even two tochachos portions of Torah where God rebukes nation don’t allude to such punishment. founders of Yad V'Shem erred in being compelled to find new term for destruction because of its proportions and dimensions. Term empties hurban of profound meaning. Gave a term which signifies isolation and detachment from history. Significance of H lies in intricate relationship with what will come after. Pattern of J Hist is Hurban - Galut - Geula (Destruction, Exile, Redemption).
1242Cohen, ArthurEx 19-24 (Allusion to Sinai)572-573Ex 19-24 (Allusion to Sinai)8Death Camps = Tremendum. Monument of meangless inversion of life to orgiastic celebration of death, psychosexual and pathological degeneracy unparalleled and unfathomable to any person bonded to life. Questions pertain to reality of evil and the existence of God, extremity of evil and freedom of man, presentness of evil and power of God.

Is symmetry structural or polemical?

Greatest Jewish fear: that Jewish people is not eternal, chosen people rejected.

Every Jew who left Judaism for X, from Paul to Pasternak, says old Jew is dead. (Attack on Pasternak). Living Jew must become dead Jew that non Jew be saved?
We demonstrate unredeemedness of the world. For us there is no cause of Jesus, only of God. Re Xianity, gave myself permission to despise X and X in the open. Not persons but ideologies.

Buber: absence of penultimate messianic moments. No caesura.
1243Cohen, Arthur000Not just event of history but event that annihilates past of hope and expectation, abyss. Did H speak only to Jews?

What other nation so totally committed to life as the Jew?

Refusal to die until tremendum; celebration of tenacity of life.
Rev of Sinai ultimate in our and God’s perspective.
Measure of G’s immanentism.

But H is ultimacy only in our regard.

We speak, G silent.
Eclipse of God. Most penetrating assault is upon divine silence. Only a malign God would be silent. If spoke once, why not since? Here concealed a variety of assumptions about nature and efficacy of idvine speech. . E.g. to be construed literally, that God acually spoke. Also that God’s speech is action that God’s words act. Or God’s speech enacts and confutes projects of tyrants . Hence divine silence is reproof.Can argue that God’s speech is really always man’s hearing, that God is the mystery of our futurity, our posse, never our acts. Less interferer. More reality that is our prefiguratio, whose speech and silence are metaphor for our language and distortion. God whom we may love and honor but not fear and from whom we no longer demand.
1244Cohen, Arthur000Tremendum is an ontological gathering of evil, a watershed reality that casts doubt upon the formulations of traditional Jewish theism and requires, if it is not to be final as well as ultimate, a response in its aftermath. Tremendum, term acknowledges alien immensity, anguish of survivors. What has it to do with theology, with God?

How is reality of God to be redefined?

How could he have witnessed and stayed silent ? Cry wants interruptive miracle, that sea open, army of enemy be consumed.

How do Jews think after termendum?
Everything. Abysmal evil is Paradigm like giving of Torah. But this is a false analogy.

No God worth a single child’s life. I’d agree if history presented such choices.

Historical existence stripped of sacral implication for 2 centuries.

Emphasize human freedom and rationality. Freedom without reason is caprice.

What Judaism combats, its proper agon, is the historical.

Cry of memorialists is silence of God.

Need a redefinition of reality of God.
Neo Orthodoxy (Heschel) allows God and tremendum to bypass each other.

Scholem. Cosmogonic tradition abhorred by historical Judaism for concession to gnostic imaery. . . irrationality, mythic imagery, involvement yet meaningful. God’s involvement with life of creation.

Also a tradition gnostic kabbalistic, Xian in auspices. . . From Joachim through Schelling to Rosenzweig. . . takes formulation of Johannine Gospel as metaphysical instruction and meditates on its significance.
Cry of memorialists: that sea part. View of miracle:

Either created world is never independent of God, but extension of God = Spinoza pantheism. Suffering and evil unclarity. Or not pantehism, fundamentalist theism that God respondent to extrimity , the greater than human need. With result that human life denies its essential freedom returning to ethical passivity.
1245Cohen, Arthur000But term disallows historical memory. Challenge is that Jewish thinking will be found shallow. If so, final.
But rush to make it unique is a rush to ontologize history.

Ancient caesura: Abyss opened and Jews closed by affirming their guilt, denying the abyss, taking upon themselves responsibility for the demonic. Not beyond reason but within providence. Expulsion from Spain another. Opening time of mystic, seeing unseen order. This time abyss opened and 1/3 of Jews fell in.
Is there a caesura in Jewish history?

If tremendum is a caesura, how does one speak of God?

Assumption that there isn't a caesura accurate re eschatological vision of perfecting and redemption of history, but wrong in missing underside of history, the corrupting caesura.

Is thought commensurate with the tremendum?
If thought is incommensurate, then must fall silent and dumb. For gen I couldn’t speak of A. No language

If H unique, the judgement that it is incommensurate is based on logical fallacy.
If the evil is made twin with divine, it is made a divine truth.

Sacredness gives value. Without H is only relatively disastrous. Absolute disaster only within perspective that continues to acknowledge absolute. Inability of historical description to compass H is one of central reasons for assertion of its incommensurablitlity to thought.

1246Katz, Steven058100Frightening possibility about meaning of A. That there is no meaning to history, for history is random, arbitrary series of events unrelated either to transcendental order or context of absolute meaning or value. Familiar in Nietzsche’s madman in The Gay Science. Nine topics to consider. Rubenstein's ??:
1. God, as conceived in JT, could not have allowed H;
2. H did happen;
3. God, as conceived in JT, doesn’t exist. Position is serious for J and non J thought.
3. Hidden empiricist premise in R’s argument made famous in A J Ayer’s Language, Truth Logic and Flew “falsifiability challenge”: Propositions about God to be confirmed or not by appeal to empirical events. If too much evil in world, God can’t exist. But criterion not definitive;
R’s formulaiton seeks to find ways to talk meaningfully about covenantal existence or nonexistence after H. Not successful. Other ways to get at root of problem need to be found.
K. Barth. Best proof of God’s existence is the continued survival of the Jewish people.
1247Katz, Steven0002. Jewish history seen through H. Too narrow. Can one extract meaning of all Jewish existence by ref to 1933-1945? Grandparents involved. But also murderers had past. Product of German and Jewish past. A. Also Jews survived. B. State born. Third Commonwealth. Without Israel, focusing on H alone is at best arbitrary. 1. Problem of evil. Solutions: on account of sins; afflictions of love. H can’t be that. Also needs to be considered by Xians if think H justified by guilt for deicide. Isn’t there something wrong with image of a God of love wreaking such vengeance on million children after two thousand years? (Future paper). Radical move is difficult: no God, no covenant. 4. More fundamental weakness. Paucity of metaphysical imagination. Sharp disjunctions not true to richness and variety of human experience nor to ambiguity of history or possible metaphysical accounts of reality that might be employed to deal with history and A in particular. R has given insufficient attention to metaphysical considerations. What is required is a new and better metaphysics. Unaware that his is a substantial metaphysical speculation rather than set of empirical propositions. Indebtedness to existentialist predecessors important. Dependence on Kierkegaard’s anti Hegelian polemic. But inadequate per se. Fails to be applied to J which has its own internal metaphysical understanding of events whose perspective has to be mastered within J. See Katz, “Dialogue and Revelation in the Thought of M. Buber,” Israel. Third Commonwealth. Has Theological Meaning. Weight to be accorded complex. Not being asserted that SI is compensation for A nor that A is cause of creation of SI. Why is complex beyond causal and compensatory schema. But State is an event. Perhaps a “miracle,” if term means anything, equal to if not more important than A in J theological terms. 5. Advocates value of Jewish community despite or because of H;
6. Jew after H should subsitute mystical pagan nature religion. We treasure our community because life is hopeless psychological perspecive. Only Jewish experience authentic. Self contradictory parasitism. Reconstructionism. Raises questions about meaning. Extreme selectivity of examples of how restructured J would work. How many mitzvot translatable? Jews should just enjoy the land. Nature romanticism of Nietzsche. Freudianism.
1248Katz, StevenJr 27.06600Jr 27.062Nebuchadnezzar "as servant of God"Hurban as CrucifixionMaybaum: If nations decide Judaism has no meaning, are Jews willingly to disappear?
Did God enter into covenantal relation with Abraham and heirs only to crucify them?
Does being Jewish mean primarly being a “lamb for slaughter”?
Is there not something intrinsic essential about J relationship to God which is the Jews’ alone?
Some inner reality, some speical holiness, some particular priestlines that is not dictated by the needs of the nations but rather by the intimacy of covenantal existence?
J. H, must work itself out in ways intellgibible to nations. Correct because contextual character. But gentile perception is not all inclusive. Two-sidedness. Maybaum victim of his inheritance, of earlier moderniziing attempts which sought to evaluate and interprt J through alien standards for apologetic purposes. Fails to recognize major danger of approach. Judaism loses all internal integrity. Adoption of Hurban and Crucifixion as master code to appy to J history to make it intelligible even to Jews. Xian terms. Xcentric orientation taken over rom Rosenzweig. Doesn’t make it true. Just makes it an error with a pedigree.
Rosenzweig after near conversion fashioned a remarkable Jewish vision that accepted Xian account of Western history and its interp of roles of Israel and Church in world. History bleongs to X, not Jews. Shows Israel’s immediate and metahistoric relation to God. Jews vicarious victim, six million as Christ of our age. Thesis more problematic. Misundersands Xian soteriology for 2 reasons. C died for our sins because he is God, because he took sin on his shoulders. Not terrible cruelty but divine love. Christ mounts cross voluntarily, dies so others may live. Very diff from Shoah. Victims, not martyrs. Jews singled out unwillingly. Disanalogy of H and Good Friday reveals more. Symbol of X is of vicarious atonement. (Here suffering servant not invoked). Acc to Maybaum, symbol of Crucifixion is of vicarious atonement. But circumstances of H, nature of atonement is far more criminal and more depraved than sins for which it atones?
State of Israel escapes Maybaum’s catgrs. antithesis of Xn mentality. Jews said, we suffered enough. We reject powerlessness. wish to live in Land of Cov in peace with man and God. State of Israel best evidence of progress that Maybaum could appeal to but rejects for Two metaphysical systems: a-Zionist Rosenzweigian, people with God while gentiles through X on way. Reform. Mission. Jewish life among nations. See Buber to Kittel and Gandhi 1939. Without growing center dispersion is dismemberment. For X Zionism must be commit as F said. X must repent of supercesionism. How trusts repentance? That genuine and complete? If he supports firmly Jewish search for independence from enemies and Xian friends.
1249Katz, Steven000Hurban as Crucifixion - use of term by German Jewish intellectuals index of assimilation, lack of fully Jewish, Jewishly formed and saturated imaginationWhat sort of priests could Nazis have been? Are they not beyond all reparation? What progress has resulted from Sho’ah? World is not better. Since 1945 more mass murder. Nations slow to learn any ethical imperative. III. Zionism. To equate Planet A is absurd. So same objection as free will defense. If H is price of freedom, or progress or expiation, better to do without such evolution and reconciliation; price is too high. Turns God into kivyachol as if one could say this, into a moral monster. If Hitler is My servant, to resist Hitler is to resist God. II. Notion of progress. 586 and 70 not moral ascent but descent. Jews mourn on Tisha b’Av, not celebrate.
1250Katz, Steven000Maybaum willing to affirm that God at H and Hitler agent. Neb Servant of God” “Hitler my servant!” Face 67. If God created this and that is means, what is the end? Can one pray to such a being? Possible to attribute H to men but once attributed to God, becomes impossible to understand or justify. . . Admirable attempt refreshing willingness to draw difficult conclusions from premises, in final analysis explanations do not explain theological dilemmas posed by Holocaust.
1251Katz, StevenJb606Jb41Premise: not historically unique and does not raise original issues for Jewish theology. So doesn’t force J into new and unprecedented reactions and transformations, distingyuishes B from other major theologians. Also denied by Maybaum. Unique in magnitude of horror but not in dilemma to religious faith. Repetition of ancient pattern. Berkovitz. Mastery of Jewish learning separates him from most philosophers and theologians who have publicly responded. Traditional response. Need to rethink, not change, modalities (self-contradiction). Does not entail that tradition inadequate or in need of revision. Center of B on free will theodicy. Hester Panim. God’s hiddenness required for man to be moral creature. God must abstain from reacting immediately to immoral deeds. Corollary: forbearance to wicked; deaf ear to violated. Humanity impossible if God is strictly just; if God is loving there will be evil. Erek Apayim = Hester panim. 2. Preferable to have world where evil did not exist. No sickness or hunger. Price is just too high. Lessen evil, lessen morality. If eliminate evil need for morality declines. Jobian thesis. Job not applicable because Job was protected from destruction. So little relevance to H. If so, proper goal to generate more good is greater Holocaust, God forbid.
1252Katz, Steven000Entire nature of challenge is altered. Magnitude makes no difference. Conundrum same whether one Jew or 6 million slaughtered. Each raises ? How could God permit it? Cuts both ways. My research confutes simple assimilation. Each raises ? How could God permit it? Cuts both ways. So procedure is to investigate historical structure of Shoah and then ask what theological consquences if any flow from judgements regarding historical event. Berkovitz fails to do former because wants to protect latter. Historical query re uniqueness one thing, theological interp another, but related. As coherent as not fully convincing. Reveals his mature theological intuition by opting for this gambit as his response. Many dramatic and moving examples of Jewish heroism cited advance for existence of evil as possibility which must be allowed by God for hiuman freedom and reality of evil. Two diff. Could God have created a world in which there is freedom but no evil?
1253Katz, Steven000Novum captured by need of new word to describe it. Genocide. First use of word ascribed to Raphael Lemkin, Axis rule in Occupied Europe, 1944. God of Bible known for miracles. Need to understand Jewishly why God did not step into flow of events and say enough. B: this would destroy history. But stepped in at Egypt, why not at A? If certain goods generated by allowing evil, couldn’t God have allowed production of these goods without so much evil? Less evil? See Mackie and Plantinga. No. Not convincing because of sheer gratuitious evil in H that is beyond what seems logically necessary for existence of human freedom and beyond bounds of toleration for omnipotent just God. Given miracles, even one, small one could have reduced tragedy of Shoah without cancelling moral autonomy of shoah. B: There must be a dimension beyond history in which all suffering finds redemption. This is essential to the faith of a Jew. Hence traditional crutch of an afterlife. Besides elemental difficulty of any legitimation being given for this belief in the Hereafer, translates into appeal for compensation, This moral disquiet makes conclusion of Job unsatisfactory and which makes it more in case of victims of Shoah. If there is a heaven in which bliss without tensions and difficulties caused by freedom, why did God not create such an Earth without freedom of choice and all of its terrible consequences? Most Jewishly convincing response.
1254Katz, Steven000On Greenberg: 1. Uses imprecise terms. Dialectic. Paradox. Merely holding two contradictory propositions simultaneously not fruitful.
2. Two seminal criteria of verification: a. in presence of burning children; b. addresses positivist verificationist challenge. Meets request for verification. Credible is not satisfactory. What is c depends on one’s piror theological commitments, the issue at stake. No state of affairs is incompatible with theism.
3. Rel bet Shoah and Halachah? Call for volunatry covenant. Not convincing. I don’t see mandate for halachic change.
6. Voluntary cov. Does this mean Hitler shattered covenant? Argument unconvicing, use of soruces open to quesiton, method lacking in method.

Work is unfinished
4. Revelation technical and awe/ful term. Term not heard often enough today. Greenberg uses this theme ambiguously esp as it becomes decisive in rel to claims made by his for putative revelatory character of Shoah and reborn State of Israel. Nothing rivals these assertions in importance, for no category is as elemental as revelation. All that J is flows from revelatory claims, is predicated on specific understanding of what revelation is and is not.

5. Structure of 3 eras, propositions about saving god, talk of rev and red, radical prop that God silent partner, can’t be advanced without thinking of consequences for God of A, I, J. Redefines God. Can such a God be guarantor of moral value?

1255Katz, Steven000On Cohen: Essential question: Ancestors thought national catastrophes compatible with traditional notions of beneficent God. Question is whether same conclusion may be wrung from data of the tremendum.
What is the substance of the new post-tremendum beginning?
Synthesize: a) kabbalistic counter history of Judaism, Eyn Sof. God beyond all attributes and related doctirne of creation. Linked to Schelling and Rosenzweig. What is necessary in God. Love...
There is an elemental side of God that is necessarily hidden but still necessary in process of creation and relation; reciprocally, creation, necessary outcome of God’s loving nature; God’s nature requires our freedom; we require dipolar vision which admits that things look different from God’s perspective. New dramatic version of Free will defense. Pessimism about Zionism
Unpersuasive
1. Kabbalah and Schelling.
2. If H has broken all and created caesura, how can Kant and Schelling be retrievable? David Tracy answers. Heremeneutics of Retrieval. Little deconstruction of K and less Schelling. So Rosenzweig. "Thought" just assertion. What are radical remarks? Hypotheses? Proofs? Doesn’t explain. Dipolar account of God. Free Will. God transcendent, not responsible.
God’s speech= human hearing. But our hearing doesn’t create God’s speech. There is a mishearing. So there is a Speaker and a Hearer. How is Man’s hearing Revelation? From Jewish point of view, Torah and mitzvot negated. Fails to deal with divine attributes. Divinity not God of covenant.

Maimondes: Why did God give revelation to this nation? At this time? Schelling incompatible with Jewish God.

Requires leap of faith without proof. Not clear why need dipolar theism to produce Free Will defense. Free Will defense: most sober. Too emaciated an explanation of experience of victims, vindicates God’s morality too easily.
Jewish people constitutes eternal speaking of revelation to the Jew of history, the turn of that people into the winds of history. . is a turning of its guardianshjip of the word towards the nations, Rel of Israel’s Being to the becoming of the nations. Does not matter.

Cohen’s arg impacts on fundamental question of God’s relation to history. Advocacy of implicit but non-causal nexus will not do. What of God is conducted? Recasting creates a trivial God. Tremendum not a theological problem, irrelevant to God’s existence. God with community bec unintelligible

What it teaches us about God or any higher norms is insignificant besides question of what it teaches us about man, his limits, his possibilities, his cruelty, creativity, nobility. In human terms, H not meaningless. To say it was is as offensive as to say that it had a theological meaning, i.e. a divine purpose. So object to characterization as incomprehensible. Need to comprehend. Afraid it would prove autonomy of evil. But if turn from God to man, not incomprehensible. Demonstrated extremes only man and is society coapable of suffering . Pointed at possibilty perhaps unknown before of human existence, possibility as human as the best instances of creativity and compassion.
