JUEDISCHE PRESSE

JUEDISCHE PRESSE
JUEDISCHE PRESSE, German weekly reflecting an Orthodox viewpoint, published in Berlin. The Juedische Presse was founded in 1870 on the initiative of azriel hildesheimer , and edited from 1884 to 1910 by his son, hirsch hildesheimer . From the first, it reflected Hildesheimer's view on the evils of ḥalukkah and on the need in Jerusalem for educational   reform and technical training. The paper also supported the Ḥibbat Zion movement and colonization in Ereẓ Israel, but was critical of herzl and of political Zionism. In communal politics, it stood against the dogmatic secessionism (Austritt) of some Orthodox from the community, with its center in Frankfurt, and defended the so-called "communal Orthodoxy" which worked within the framework of the state-established congregations. In 1919 the Juedische Presse became the official organ of the German mizrachi (with a Hebrew and Yiddish supplement) but ceased publication in 1923. -BIBLIOGRAPHY: M. Eliav, in: Sinai, 65 (1969), 221–33.
