Jewish life be constructed to take the place of the shell of Jewishness emptied well nigh of all life content during the past century and a half of so-called enlightenment? No certain answer can be given to this.question. The project of reviving an autonomous Jewish life involves the interplay of so many forces, Jewish and non-Jewish, that the merest attempt at prediction would he utter folly. While prediction is thus out of question, one may none the less point out what the obstacles are in the way of laying the .foundation _ of such a life. We shall limit ourselves .to one—the obstacle, presented by a group of words, "Jewish" emancipation," as used in history books.
and ideals wili disappear. The Jewishness in the Jews is a deplorable accident, which it is the business of intelligent human application to annihilate, was their conclusion. And so they went about treating Jews as abstract human beings and according them the right which, seemed to inhere in this abstraction^ Had they dealt with living human beings, and had they thus been. compelled to consider the.^Jewishness of the Jews, it is open to question whether the same liberals would have fought as passionately for the cause of granting Jews human rights. . . . A mere- glance into the original controversy centering around the question of Jewish emancipation will convince one of the. fundamental error under which, the liberal friends of the Jews labored. Christian Dohm, the friend of Moses Mendelssohn, writing at the latter's request, expresses the certainty that the Jewish, cultural separation is largely a product of the isolated living forced upon them. When the question of enfranchisement came up before -the French Estates General, and later the Revolutionary Constituent AST sembly, the two considerations which figured largely were (1) whether -the Jews are a . religious. denomination or a national group and (2) whether the Jewish characteristics, economic and cultural, are indelible, or removable by more decent treatment. Enemies of the Jewish cause maintained that Jews^are Jews, .'that they are a nation, that"4heif-tastes and aspirations are their essential nature and are harffly exadlcaiJle characteristics. Triends of Jews maintained that Jews are colorless,and formless human beings who can' take on the form and color of any environment. The liberals drew desirable conclusions from false premises. The conservatives, on the other hand, drew false conclusions from truthful assumptions. . ".' , ' ....-•
-_A; very small minority, Jewish and Gentile,-makes intelligent use of this group,'r.of words. Nevertheless, the large majority are influenced in the formation of their attitude, toward Jewish problems by this noble complex of-sounds. Most Jews and Gentiles base their Jewish philosophy on the-assumption that the Messiah has already come-p-that there has been a Jewish emancipation. Historians point out that for the Jews the Middle Ages came to a close approximately toward the end of the Eighteenth Century. As. an outcome of the economic and social changes that transpired in the last decades of that century and of the liberal spirit that accompanied these changes, Ghetto walls were broken downi Jews were permitted -to participate in the cultural life of man' kind -and of -the century wherein _ they- Tesided; and the right of suffrage- was gradually accorded to them..

For unless the pattern of thoughts "drawing their strength from this supposition is destroyed, all efforts at creating a meaningful Jewish'life "will meet the stone wall of the "what for?" attitude. Has not the Jewish people already Tjeen emancipated ? There has never "been a Jewish emancipation. The sum total of change that goes under that title may possibly, with some justice be described as the continuation of the effort of human emancipation as applied to Jews. Possibly it may be described as Jewish equalization. This too, is open to serious question. At any rate, however, it has not been a. Jewish emancipation. The -.«moval of the Ghetto walls, the opening of the avenues of general culture to the Jews, their admission into the fold of citizenry was simply granted to them by graciously including the Jews under the general -category of men. Not living, acting Jewish personalities, with tastes, loyalties and strivings, hoping for the day when they might live their own lives freely, was the concern of the liberal Gentiles who fought: the battle of the so-called Jewish emancipation.' •It is curious that it was the opponents of Jewish equalization, who viewed the Jews as living beings, as a group that had a history, that created a culture, that still strives in its present living to continue the Jewish historical experience and uni~ que cultural creativeness. Only, they added as an unwarranted conclusion, - that such history and such strivings precluded the possibility of the Jewish entry into the life of the group in whose territory they resided. The friends of the Jewish cause deliberately ignored the fundamental truthfulness of their opponents' contention.
