- ZUCKERMANDEL, MOSES SAMUEL
- ZUCKERMANDEL, MOSES SAMUEL (1836–1917), rabbi and researcher
in tannaitic literature. Born in Ungarisch-Brod (Uhersky Brod), Moravia,
Zuckermandel studied under samson raphael hirsch at Nikolsburg
(Mikulov) and later at the
rabbinical seminary (see juedisch-theologisches seminar ) and the
University of Breslau. From 1864 to 1897 he was a rabbi of various
congregations, and from 1898 he served as rabbi at the Mora-Leipziger
Foundation in Breslau. His life work was the scientific edition of the
tosefta (according to the Mss. of Erfurt and Vienna (third part),
and printed texts, 881–82, second ed. with supplement by S. Lieberman
(1937), reprinted with additions (1970) which, despite its
deficiencies, represented a great advance in its time. Zuckermandel was
of the opinion that the Tosefta was in fact only a remnant of a great
Palestinian mishnah (to which the Palestinian amoraim
resorted) that had remained after the Babylonian amoraim had
removed part of it, adapted it, and called it the Mishnah. This was
rightly rejected by A. Schwarz and others.
His writings include Die Erfurter Handschrift de-Tossefta
(1876); Spruchbuch (vols. 1–2, 1889–90); Tosefta,
Mischna, und Boraitha (vols. 1–2, and supplement, 1908–10);
Gesammelte Aufsaetze (vols. 1–2, 1911–13); and
Festpredigten (vols. 1–2, 1915). In 1915 his autobiography
Mein Lebenslauf appeared.
