Summary

Chapter 4 examines Franz Rosenzweig’s relationship to classical rabbinic Judaism and his response to Hegel regarding the individual, the state, and sacrifice in warfare. It argues that Rosenzweig’s presentation of Jewish life and community is connected to his critique of the dominant tradition of Western philosophy, that Hegel’s account of Judaism has important parallels to rabbinic understandings, and that Christianity’s connection to power-politics leaves it intertwined with ‘paganism’ for Rosenzweig.
