Summary

From many, the publication of the Black Notebooks introduced Judaism into the orbit of Heidegger’s thought. The sorry insertion of Judentum and the Judenfrage into the apparatus of Heidegger’s deliberations on the Seinsfrage in these notebooks has led to much reflection on whether and how to situate Judaism in the task of thinking. tHowever, thinking about Judaism vis-à-vis Heidegger is in fact a long-standing endeavor. Throughout the twentieth century, leading Jewish thinkers have transgressed Heidegger’s objection to confessional readings of his philosophy and engaged with it as a provocation and challenge to Judaism.
