摘要

Asher Schechter is a Curriculum supervisor at the Ministry of Education in Israel, now teaching Philosophy, History and Judaism in USA. After he was ordained to the rabbinate, he turned to the academic and educational world. As part of his curricular responsibility, he is in charge of writing curricula in various fields: Bible, Talmudic studies, Islam, Christianity, Jewish philosophy in interfaces with general philosophy. He taught Jewish philosophy and History at Horev High School for girls in Jerusalem, one of the best high schools in Israel. His academic works mainly deal with Dr. Schächter’s philosophy. His master thesis, The Thought of the Sages in the Philosophy of Dr. Josef Schächter, in which he analyzes Dr. Schächter’s method of interpretation of the Sage’s thought and general Philosophy. The topic of his dissertation is From Science to Faith –The Early Thought of Dr. Josef Schächter in the Land of Israel (Hebrew University—Jerusalem Israel, 2009). He sought to decipher the Schächterian contact between two conflicting worlds, the Viennese circle for its non-metaphysical approach and the Jewish spiritual world. One of the papers published based on this work is titled as “How theology can be created on an anti-theological environment” (Canada 2010). During his postdoctoral studies at Harvard University (USA), he wrote the paper “When the Pantheist Met the Panentheist”, which is an analysis of the dialogue between Mr. David Ben-Gurion—the first Israeli Prime Minister—and Josef Schächter about religion and science. In addition, he wrote a biography of Dr. Josef Shechter. A small chapter of the biography was expanded for the purpose of writing this paper. Over the years, Schechter lectured on Dr. Josef Schächter’s philosophy at international and educational conferences in Israel and around the world. In recent years, he digitized the writings of his grandfather, Dr. Josef Schächter. This paper is based on papers written by Dr. Josef Schächter and memories of his father, Dr. Zvi Schechter and his brother Rabbi Yaakov Dov Schechter.
