Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. In Hebrew. 302 pages. 245 x 172 mm. Elias Auerbach (the brother of Israel Auerbach (the husband of Bertha Datnowsky) was born in 1882 in Ritschenwalde, in the former Prussian province of Posen (today Ryczywol in Poland) and in 1890 his family moved to Berlin, where he attended school and studied medicine (1905, with final thesis). He was a physician and a Bible scholar and author. He was active in the Zionist movement, was a member of the Jüdische Humanitätsgesellschaft, of the Bar Kochba Athletic Association. He participated in the Zionist congresses of 1903, 1905 and 1907. He immigrated to Eretz Israel, then part of the Ottoman Empire, in late 1909 and he founded the first modern hospital in Haifa. There his name was Hebraicized to "Or" (his eldest son was named Daniel Or). He claimed to have been the first German Zionist to settle in the land of Israel out of personal motivation (two men had gone to Palestine because of their work in administrative posts, one for the World Zionist Organization, and the other for the Jewish Colonization Association) See Zionism in Germany 1897-1933, by Stephen Poppel). Elias Auerbach was one of the founders of a Jewish Athletic Association in Palestine. In 1914, during WWI, he returned to Germany with his family to serve as a military doctor. According to Amos Elon ("The Pity of it All"), Elias Auerbach decided to return to Germany to "do his duty" in the German army medical corps at the outbreak of WW1. He wrote in the Jüdische Rundschau: "We came back joyfully. It was not only our duty, it was mostly love for the country of our birth." But according to his grand-nephew Dr. Gilad Rosenberg, this quote is actually misleading, since in his journal Auerbach wrote that he didn't enlist but was drafted into the German army, like all German citizens from Palestine - Christians (Templars) and Jews. In October 1919 his wife Rachel died in Wronke (now Wronki in Poland) of the Spanish flu, and in 1920 he and his two children returned to Haifa, where he founded the first Jewish hospital in 1925. Between 1930 and 1933, Auerbach was again in Berlin because of an illness of his second wife. During this time he taught Bible studies at the College of Jewish Studies. Auerbach published numerous books and essays on Jewish culture and history. He is known especially for his contributions to Jewish biblical scholarship. His two-volume magnum opus "Wilderness and Promised Land" appeared in 1936. From 1950 he lectured on biblical subjects and the history of Israel at various European universities. On the occasion of his 70th birthday, a volume of essays was published in his honor by the Hevrah le-Heker ha-Mikra be-Yisrael, "Sefer Auerbach", ed. by A. Biram (1955). In 1969, "Pionier der Verwirklichung", the first part of his autobiography covering his life up to 1918, was published. He died two years later, in 1971 in Israel.…
