American Jewry before the Second World War was still subject to
discrimination and quotas to a sufficiently substantial degree that
publications such as Moses Einhorn's The Hebrew Physician had a purpose
beyond simple chauvinism. I sometimes use the term "Jewish Medicine."
Unlike the term "Jewish Medical Ethics," I don't really believe that it
describes something that actually exists. Perhaps, "Jews in Medicine,"
would be a better fit but it just doesn't role off my tongue. Thus, the
title proves to be a fitting title. "Ha-Rofe Ha-Ivri" brought together
articles of concern to a Jewish audience in a way that no secular
medical journal would have.
The articles in "The
Hebrew Physician" address current medical issues in the wider medical
community. These articles may have appeared in "The Hebrew Physician"
because they were not successfully placed in mainstream medical
publications. Einhorn was a gastroenterologist and they is some bias
towards that medical specialty. There are articles about Jewish medical
practices as depicted in Torah, Talmud and Halakhah. There are articles
on Medicine in Mandate Palestine and early Israel as well as Hadassah
Hospital specifically. There are also articles on Hebrew Medical
terminology in Jewish texts and in Modern Hebrew. Special issues focus
on Sigmund Freud, Saul Tchernicovsky, Wartime Conditions (Second World
War), and Diabetes.
Publication began in 1927 and
continued through 1963 (or 1965 by some accounts) It was interrupted
between 1928-29, 1931-32 and 1934-35.
Einhorn was
active in American Jewish communal activities and in the efforts to
create Medical organization in Mandate Palestine. Most of his family
remained in Europe and were lost. He edited the Yizkor book for
Wolkovisk which is one of the most useful and detailed of all of the
Yizkor Bikher. Einhorn died in early 1966.
