Excerpt from Isaac Mayer Wise, the Founder of American Judaism a Biography In 1846, when Isaac Mayer Wise arrived in America, he found the Jews in this country with but little secular culture, many of them drifting away from Judaism, and what religious institutions they had, entirely unorganized. Their religious life was an intolerable imitation of that which existed in the old Ghettos of Europe - a condition so inconsistent with the spirit of American institutions as to make positively impossible its survival. Dr. Wise realized that if Judaism in America was to be preserved, it would be necessary not only to Americanize the Jew, but also his Judaism. This was his life work. But for this work the Jews in America would either have been lost to Judaism or their mode of life and worship an empty continuation of that brought with them from their narrow European environment.

Isaac Mayer Wise (1819-1900) strove for unity among American Jews and for a college to train rabbis to serve them. The establishment of the Hebrew College in 1875 was the crowning achievement of his life. Temkin's account of Wise's life captures the vigor of his personality and the politics and concerns of contemporary Jewish life and leadership in America. Photos.
