Question
Hello and blessings,
Did the Rabbi know Professor [Rabbi?] David Hartman? Was he a Torah scholar? Or Reform?
Answer
I didn’t know him. I don’t think he engaged in Talmudic scholarship in the yeshiva sense. He didn’t define himself as Reform, but that’s not a relevant question.
Discussion on Answer
I don’t think so.
By asking whether he was Reform, I meant: according to the Rabbi’s view of Jewish law, was his outlook Reform?
