Gustav. Gottheil,, says the New York Hetald, was born in the little village of Pine, Prassia, on May 30, 1827. His early schooling was received in his native: town, ‘his rabbinical training beginning. when he was only a'few years old, as is the universal custom among orthodox Israelites, who give all of their sons a thorough Hebrew education. Dr. Gottheil attended school later in Posen under the tuition of the wellknown Rabbi Solomon Plesener. His education’ was completed in the University of Berlin ‘and’ the Rabbinical college there. Here it was that the progressive Jydaism at their source, for teachers:were the founders of that great reformed, Judaism, destined to ripen best and most richly on the virgin coil of the United States. He listened to the éloquent Holdheim, the earnest Abraham Geiger, the scholarly Leopold Zunz, the painstaking Steinschneider. While. still studying in Berlin Dr. Gottheil became an assistant minister RABBI GUSTAV GOTTHEIL, ‘Bplrituad Leader of: the Israelited of the United States.)together with Ritter of Dr. Holdheim, who stood at the head of-the first great reform synagogue in the world, the ‘Berliner Reform Gemeinde.” The young rabbi remained here for five ‘years, one of the first pupils sent out to: advance the cause of progressive Judaism. . The reformed ecinservapaticn of Manchester, England, called Dr. Gottheil to secome its rabbi‘in 1860, and he served there with great success for 13 years. “He was one of that scholarly band of ‘eabbis who constituted the synod of Leipzig in 1871. “Two years after this memorable meeting, at which a decided stand for teform was unanimously taken, Dr, Gottheil received a call to become the assistant rabbi in Temple Emanu-El, of New York. ‘The chief rabbi then was Dr. Samuel Adler, father of Prof. Felix Adler, now leader of the Ethical Culture society. , A yéar and a half later Dr. Adler retired ‘upon a pension and surrendered the reins entirely into the hands of Dr. dottheil. The young rabbi had been busily: engaged in reorganizing .the work done in the synagogue, paying special attention to the religious school. Hande and brain were kept well occupied by the manifold duties of his large 2ongregation, but Dr, Gottheil made the po to establish a theological sem, in whieh a preliminary training tor rabbinical studies was given to ‘young ‘men desirous of following that profession. During this period of:25 years Temple Emanu-E] has almost doubled its iwmembe p, now counting nearly 706 families on its roll—no small evidence of the success of its rabbi’s ministra‘tions. Dr. Gottheil has been active in many other directions. He arranged in 1886 the first Jewish hymn book, with music, to be printed.in this country, in (which was quite painless to the boy), {this way laying the foundation for the inion’ ‘hymnal now being generally of the United States. He was the 4 shosen Representative of the Israelites at the parliament of religions held in sonnéection with the world’s fair in Chicago, presenting there the claims of Judaism as a world religion. ‘When fot ihe sow ‘George died Dr. Gottheil’ spoke jor the'.Jewish community. at his 4 The pH.

Gustav. Gottheil,, says the New York Hetald, was born in the little village of Pine, Prassia, on May 30, 1827. His early schooling was received in his native: town, ‘his rabbinical training beginning. when he was only a'few years old, as is the universal custom among orthodox Israelites, who give all of their sons a thorough Hebrew education. Dr. Gottheil attended school later in Posen under the tuition of the wellknown Rabbi Solomon Plesener. His education’ was completed in the University of Berlin ‘and’ the Rabbinical college there. Here it was that the progressive Jydaism at their source, for teachers:were the founders of that great reformed, Judaism, destined to ripen best and most richly on the virgin coil of the United States. He listened to the éloquent Holdheim, the earnest Abraham Geiger, the scholarly Leopold Zunz, the painstaking Steinschneider. While. still studying in Berlin Dr. Gottheil became an assistant minister RABBI GUSTAV GOTTHEIL, ‘Bplrituad Leader of: the Israelited of the United States.)together with Ritter of Dr. Holdheim, who stood at the head of-the first great reform synagogue in the world, the ‘Berliner Reform Gemeinde.” The young rabbi remained here for five ‘years, one of the first pupils sent out to: advance the cause of progressive Judaism. . The reformed ecinservapaticn of Manchester, England, called Dr. Gottheil to secome its rabbi‘in 1860, and he served there with great success for 13 years. “He was one of that scholarly band of ‘eabbis who constituted the synod of Leipzig in 1871. “Two years after this memorable meeting, at which a decided stand for teform was unanimously taken, Dr, Gottheil received a call to become the assistant rabbi in Temple Emanu-El, of New York. ‘The chief rabbi then was Dr. Samuel Adler, father of Prof. Felix Adler, now leader of the Ethical Culture society. , A yéar and a half later Dr. Adler retired ‘upon a pension and surrendered the reins entirely into the hands of Dr. dottheil. The young rabbi had been busily: engaged in reorganizing .the work done in the synagogue, paying special attention to the religious school. Hande and brain were kept well occupied by the manifold duties of his large 2ongregation, but Dr, Gottheil made the po to establish a theological sem, in whieh a preliminary training tor rabbinical studies was given to ‘young ‘men desirous of following that profession. During this period of:25 years Temple Emanu-E] has almost doubled its iwmembe p, now counting nearly 706 families on its roll—no small evidence of the success of its rabbi’s ministra‘tions. Dr. Gottheil has been active in many other directions. He arranged in 1886 the first Jewish hymn book, with music, to be printed.in this country, in (which was quite painless to the boy), {this way laying the foundation for the inion’ ‘hymnal now being generally of the United States. He was the 4 shosen Representative of the Israelites at the parliament of religions held in sonnéection with the world’s fair in Chicago, presenting there the claims of Judaism as a world religion. ‘When fot ihe sow ‘George died Dr. Gottheil’ spoke jor the'.Jewish community. at his 4 The pH.
