André Neher's Thought and the Silence of God after Auschwitz

André Neher (1914-1988), a thinker of the Paris School of Jewish Thought, reflected on biblical prophecy and divine silence. His work The Exile of the Word (1970) examines God's silence in the face of the Shoah. A professor in Strasbourg who later emigrated to Jerusalem, he contributed to the postwar revival of French-language Jewish thought.
