The long-forgotten legacy of religious Jewish anarchism, and the adventures and ideas of its key figures, are finally brought to light in this groundbreaking book. Set in the decades surrounding both world wars, "No Masters but God" identifies a loosely connected group of rabbis and traditionalist thinkers who explicitly appealed to anarchist ideas in articulating the meaning of the Torah, traditional practice, Jewish life, and the mission of modern Jewry. Packed with archival discoveries and first translations from Yiddish and Hebrew, this book explores anarcho-Judaism in its variety through the works of Yaakov Meir Zalkind, Yitshak Nahman Steinberg, Yehudah Leyb Don-Yahiya, Avraham Yehudah Heyn, Natan Hofshi, Shmuel Alexandrov, Yehudah Ashlag, and Aaron Shmuel Tamaret. In this comprehensive account, Hayyim Rothman traces a complicated story about the modern entanglement of religion and anarchism, pacifism and Zionism, prophetic anti-authoritarianism, and mystical antinomianism.
