Elbogen authored the most comprehensive study on Jewish liturgy, while Rosenzweig's magnum opus The Star of Redemption has emerged as one of the twentieth century's most innovative and elusive works of Jewish thought. Even though Rosenzweig is not known for his work on or appreciation for the Wissenschaft des Judentums, this article will explore this overlooked aspect of his thought by exploring the influence of Ismar Elbogen. Commentaries to Rosenzweig's views on prayer are numerous, yet none mention the work of Elbogen. This is a problem. By comparing Elbogen's work on Jewish liturgy with Rosenzweig's writings on prayer in the Star, we are able to demonstrate how methods seminal to the Wissenschaft des Judentums helped articulate several of Rosenzweig's most innovative contributions to Jewish thought.}, language = {en} } @misc{ThulinKrahMeyeretal.2018, author = {Thulin, Mirjam and Krah, Markus and Meyer, Michael A. and Schorsch, Ismar and Brodt, Eliezer and Sariel, Eliezer and Yedidya, Asaf and Esther, Solomon and Kessler, Samuel J. and Bratkin, Dimitri and Sax, Benjamin E. and Stair, Rose and Ariel, Yaakov S. and Weidner, Daniel and Ebert, Sophia and Martini, Annett and Fischer, Bernd and Th{\"u}ne, Eva-Maria and Bock, Dennis and Engelmann, Jonas and Aust, Cornelia and Walter, Nancy}, title = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien = Cultures of Wissenschaft des Judentums at 200}, series = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien e.
