5) Samuel Falk (c. 1710-1782).
Falk, who lived in London, loved
magic and mystery. He was known
for performing all sorts of tricks and
trying the patience of the Jewish
community by asserting he had
wondrous powers because he had
dared speak the ineffable names of
God.
6) Issa ben-Moses Estori (1280-c,
1355).
7) Nachmanides (Rabbi Moses ben-
Nachman, 1194-1270). So brilliant
was Nachmanides in this debate, in
fact, that King James I of Aragon,
who had organized the program,
declared him the winner and pre-
sented Nachmanides with a huge
monetary award.
8) Solomon Schechter (1847-1915).
9) Felix Adler (1815-1933), son of
Samuel Adler of Temple Emanu-El
in New York. Samuel very much

too, but Felix completely abandoned
Judaism and formed the New York
Society for Ethical Culture.
10) Alexander David Goode (1911-
1943), a graduate of HUC-JIR. He,

were seer holding arms and praying
as the ship sank.
