EYBESCHUTZ, JONATHAN (1690-1764)

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 90 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
EYBESCHUTZ, JONATHAN (1690-1764) ,
German
 
rabbi
 , was from 1750
rabbi
  in Altona. He was a man of erudition, but he owed his fame chiefly to his
personality
 . Few men of the
period
  so profoundly impressed their
mark
  on Jewish
life
 . He became specially notorious because of a curious controversy that arose concerning the amulets which
Eybeschutz
  was suspected of issuing. These amulets recognized the Messianic claims of Sabbatai Sebi (q.v.), and a famous rabbinic con-temporary of
Eybeschutz
 , Jacob
Emden
 , boldly accused him of
heresy
 . The controversy was a momentous incident in the Jewish
life
  of the
period
 , and though there is insufficient evidence against Eybeschutz,
Emden
  may be credited with having crushed the lingering belief in Sabbatai current even in some orthodox circles. (I. A.)
