Japanese Christian Is Awarded Doctorate by Jewish Seminary
the Hebrew Univers,ity in
Jerusalem. "The first two
years I couldn't under-
stand," he said. "I was
dumb and deaf—practice of
4n. My classmates are
writing everything, even
the professor's jokes. I
can't write."
He went home and was
overwhelmed by the work
of Abraham Joshua Hes-
chel. Teshima translated
part of a Heschel book and
published it without the au-
thor's permission. Then he
asked forgiveness and
came to New York to study
under the master:
Four years later, armed
with a master's degree,
Teshima began teaching phi-
losophy at the University of
Judaism, the West Coast
branch of the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary. "Then I
realized that witho,ut a doc-
tor's degree one cannot live

When Teshima's father,
Ikuroh A. Teshima, founder
of .6 Christian sect which
closely identifies with Is-
rael, heard about this, he
was delighted. His Original
Gospel. Movement, also
known as Makuya (Taber-
nacle), honors Judaism for
its gifts to Christianity. The
sect uses the menora as its
symbol because it repre-
sents the divine presence
whereas the cross sym-
bolizes pain, the sect believ-
es. When the son announced
his intentions, the father
gave his blessing and a one-
way ticket.
Buber had retired, so
Teshima went to Gershom
Scholem, the scholar of
mystical Judaism. Study
Hebrew, said Scholem.
Teshima then enrolled at.

So he returned to the sem-
inary. Day and night, in a
nearby apartment, he sat
writing his disSertation. He
also applied for a job teach-
ing in Jewish studies:About
140 others applied for the
same job. "After receiving
the degree, I realized it
doesn't help," he said.
"The market is tight."
Although jobless, he is op-
timistic. Even with the re-
sponsibilities of a wife and
two children, Teshima be-
lieves God will provide.
