lowed, but Einhorn maintained his
ground.
TO his consistent and unwavering atti-
tude is it due that his influence was felt
rather by the thinkers in Jewish COM
mllnities than by the general Jewish pub
lie. Einhorn cannot be said to have been
a popular reformer. In his own city in
Baltimore there was friction with Sold,
while in the West where the influence of
Wise was dominant he scarcely had any
following. With his strong personality,
Einhorn of necessity created great enmi-
ties. 1t was impossible, for instance,
that he should not have early crossed
swords with Wise. Wise was pre-emi-
nently the organizer, the builder, the one
man needed in the rapidly growing
western Jewish communities with Re-
form Judaism in chaotic condition.
He knew how to modify Jewish ideas in
a manner acceptable to and understood
by the Jewish public. And his success
The Jewish outlook., 1905-11-24

showed his wisdom. The Union Of
American Hebrew Congregations and
the Hebrew Union College with nearly
every prominent Reform pulpit filled by
a college graduate prove how Wise had
worked in the right direction. Enhorn,
on the other hand, was laying the phil
osophical basis to the newer Judaism and
by his uncompromising attitude was ap-
pealing more and more to select circle.
His motto for the Har Sinai Congrega-
ton, "Klein aber Rein,' hastily de-
fined his temperament. Both men, thus
differing materially in the character of
their message, and of strikingly different
temperaments, could not but run afoul

is in proud possession of the best tradi-
ticns Of the great reformer, David Elm
horn. TO Har Sinai Congregation, Elm
horn was called from Germany in 1857,
and with his first sermon his influence
over the congregation, individually and
collectively, became paramount. His ut
tcrances in the pulpit and out are treas
llrd by many families in the congrega-
ton as the utterances of a prophet who
was not without honor in their midst
and his name is still a source OF inSplra-
ton to them though it is twenty-five
years since he departed this life and
more than twO-score years since he left
the Har Sinai pulpit
Einhorn was rabbi in Baltimore only
four years, from 1857 to 1861, but in
those four years the whole course of
Reform Judaism in America was formed
Einhorn, it may be said, was among the
chief forces in shaping its direction
Coming to this country with a brilliant
reputation his first essay in the Reform
camp marked him great power The
Judaism he advt lated was based on
modern Interpretation Of Jewish princi
pies and institutions, a Judaism based on
reason as applied to the Interpretation of
the best Jewish ideals and traditions
The Reform he advocated was neither Of
the kind, therefore, that has it's only ex-
cuse in that it is different from the older
form of the faith, nor of that variable
order which changes it's complexion with
each new decade. What notifications he
advocated in the preaching and practice
of Judaism were founded on keen and
thorough going investigation into the
real spirit of the Jewish faith and ira
ditions These notifications were made
with a view Of conserving the genuine
Jewish spirit and, judged by the stand
ard Of to-day, were quite moderate. Once
however, he realized the reasonableness
of his position, nothing could move him.
Consistency of view was with him car
dinal principle. This was brought out
in his protest against the platform
adopted at the Cleveland conference in
1860. At that conference DR.. Wise and
others who had not thought the time
ripe yet for complete severance from
Talmudic authority, had asserted in
their platform that the Talmud was still
a guide in the Interpretation of Scrip
ture. To this Einhorn replied with his
historic protest seconded by the leading
members of his congregation. A long
and bitter controversy thereupon fol-

were neeQeQ, oacn working III his own
sphere. But because the idea is prior to
the form, and the rational foundation
of movement is superior to it's practical
expression, Einhorn uncompromising in
his Reform views and stemming often
popular prejudice, has been called the
first crusader of the real Jewish Reform
in America.
The services rendered by Einhorn, i'm
portant as they were considered in his
time. appear invaluable now. His
monthly journal, The Sinai, more than
forty years since it has appeared, is to-
day the greatest inspiration for the Re-
form rabbi. In all the eight volumes
that appeared. the best contributions by
far are Einhorn' own sermons. with
their marvelously eloquent exposition of
Jewish idea1ism as viewed in the light of
reason. His eloQuence. well matched by
his keen learning. is of kind that con-

never had preacher possessed of such
incisive language. Joined to such great

sincerity were illustrated bv the manner

The advice of friends did not deter him

for Einhorn to leave that city A few

York he went to Philadelphia. His

darkness was but an incident in the life
