These pages are intended as a humble tribute to the sacred memory of Rabbi Paul Lazarus.

A significant meeting between Lazarus and Rosenzweig took place in the First World War.

When after their return from the war, Rosenzweig assumed the leadership of the Freies

Jüdisches Lehrhaus in Frankfurt am Main, PAUL LAZARUS was among the first to found a parallel institution in Wiesbaden and to assume a decisive role in the Jewish-renascence movement in Germany.

The following is a transcript from the book "Before Catastrophe: The Distinctive Path of German Zionism" by Hagit Lavsky.

The strained circumstances of most German Jews, compounded by the continuous denunciations of the Centralverein, took their toll on the income of Keren Hayesod. However the setback proved to be only temporary. In response to the attacks of the Centralverein, many of Keren Hayesod leaders picked up the cudgels of the Zionist cause. Rabbi Leo Baeck, Rabbi Fuchs of Chemnitz, RABBI LAZARUS of WIESBADEN and others, held meetings andissued statements that accentuated the neutrality of Keren Hayesod and the importance of the Palestine enterprise for all Jews. The climax was a public rally in Berlin on March 4, 1926, juat after the Centralverein declared Keren Hayesod off limits to its members. Among the speakers were Albert Einstein, neutral Keren Hayesod president Oskar Wassermwnn, Rabbi Leo Baeck, banker Alfred Lisser, Industrialist Sigmund Hirsch, and a Berliner Tageblatt journalist Felix Pinner.

Editorial Review of the above book:

This book, a first attempt to analyse German Zionism in a global Zionist context, sheds new light on the role of German Zionism in the German-Jewish community. It traces the emergence of a small component of the Zionist movement which regardless of size played a distinctive part in both German-Jewish and Zionist history on the eve of World War II. Positioned strategically between East and West, German Zionism was open to influences from both sides. Although post-assimilationist, it was affected by the encounter with East European Jewry. The product was a unique form of Zionism that combined Western ideas with radical 'Palestinocentrism'.
