ReplyDelete“…Zecharia, like so many of his contemporaries,
worked for a time in a sweatshop.
The shop he worked in, making pocketbooks, was located in a building just east of Washington Square [in Manhattan], site of the ill-fated Triangle Shirtwaist Company.
On the Saturday of the great fire in [March 25,] 1911 [CE] that engulfed the building and killed 145 workers, Reb Zecharia was at home. It was the Jewish Sabbath.
He learned two lessons from this: he vowed that his children would never become factory workers and he vowed that they would never work on the Sabbath.”
CHRONOLOGY:
Zecharia Derschowitz moved from Galicia to the USA in 1888 CE.
He was the great-grandfather of Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz.

=================================
Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz
grew up Orthodox but later became secular.
He said this about Orthodox Judaism,
many years after he quit it:
“I cannot leave my progeny any legacy comparable to the Orthodox commitment to, and intimate knowledge of, Jewish tradition and practice that my predecessors left me.
Though I have not abandoned my Jewishness – far from it – I have also not carried on the tradition of daily religious observance and total immersion in the sources of the tradition.
Sometimes I regret not having done so.”

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:
“It is true that the American legal system
derives much of its content from the Old Testament
[also known as the Jewish Bible or Tanach]…
When we were growing up, my friends and I would
take great pride in discovering the Jewish sources
of American laws, such as: the privilege against
self-incrimination, the requirement of two witnesses
for certain types of crime, and the very idea that
punishment must be proportionate to the crime committed.”
