OPPENHEIM, DAVID
OPPENHEIM, DAVID (1816–1876), Hebrew scholar. Born in Leipnik, Moravia, he was a rabbi in his native land and in Hungary. He published articles and studies in Hebrew and other languages, which encompassed a broad range of Hebrew literature and culture. A zealot for the Hebrew language, he fought the movement to eliminate Hebrew in the synagogue. His Hebrew studies were published in the periodicals Bet ha-Midrash   and Yeshurun, and especially in Ha-Maggid, to which he contributed critiques of Judaica. -BIBLIOGRAPHY: Zeitlin, Bibliotheca, 256.
